The move to solid state transformers (SSTs) requires compact, high frequency power architectures and robust component solutions. This session describes how TDK component technologies support SST design at both the component and system levels.
Key topics: • Component solutions: advanced magnetics, DC link and CeraLink capacitors, high voltage contactors, circuit protection, and sensing modules. • Performance benefits: enabling higher switching frequencies, increased power density, improved thermal management, and enhanced safety and reliability. • Enablers and trends: impact of wide bandgap devices (SiC, GaN) on SST requirements and the role of materials innovation in reducing size and weight while improving lifetime. • Practical guidance: component selection trade offs, layout and thermal considerations, and system level integration strategies to accelerate SST deployment.
Intended for power electronics and system engineers seeking concise, product focused guidance on designing scalable, reliable solid state transformer solutions using TDK technologies.
