Silicone Thermal Interface Materials

Shin-Etsu Silicones of America offers SDP-6560 A/B liquid-dispensed gap filling, a non-adhesive curing silicone thermal interface material. Part of the high-performing SDP Series, which are two-part, room-temperature cure silicone-based materials, the product acts as a thermal interface gap filler-providing exceptional thermal conductivity and excellent insulation for electronics applications requiring thermal dissipation. SDP-6560 A/B cures at room-temperature when the two components are mixed. After curing, the material has low hardness-translating to less stress on components. Because of the addition reaction, curing time is shortened by heating. Moreover, it can be reworked because it does not adhere to substrates. Notably, its grease-like consistency allows the material to flow into the nooks and crannies lowering the contact resistance over a variety of metal substrates. Developed to provide progressive options to thermal engineers in the growing EV market sector for silicone, SDP-6560 A/B is uniquely suited to transfer the temperature out of the electronic part to the housing. While the gap fillers can be used on a myriad of electronic parts on an EV, they are primarily used around battery cells. Key applications include usage in the battery management systems to the electronic control unit in the cars, or even the entertainment system.

Transistor Outline Leadless Package

Navitas Semiconductor (Torrence, CA) has extended its new portfolio of Gen-3 ‘Fast’ (G3F) 650 V SiC MOSFETs into a thermally enhanced, rugged, high-speed, surface-mount TOLL (Transistor Outline Leadless) package designed for demanding, high-power, high-reliability applications. Combining high-power capability and best-in-class low on-resistance of 20 to 55 mΩ, these 650 V SiC MOSFETs have been optimized for the fastest switching speed, highest efficiency, and increased power density demanded by applications such as AI data center power supplies, EV charging, and energy storage and solar solutions (ESS). Navitas GeneSiC products use a proprietary ‘trench-assisted planar’ technology that provides world-leading efficiency performance over the temperature range, with G3F MOSFETs delivering high-speed, cool-running performance that ensures up to 25 °C lower case temperatures and up to 3x longer life than alternative SiC products. Its latest design features the G3F45MT60L (650V 40 mΩ, TOLL) G3F SiC MOSFET in an interleaved CCM-TP PFC topology. Complemented by the NV6515 (650V, 35mΩ, TOLL) GaNSafe™ Power IC in the LLC stage, the 4.5 kW solution has a peak efficiency above 97 percent and, at 137 W/inch3, it is the world’s highest power density AI PSU. For 400 V-rated EV battery systems, G3F in TOLL is an ideal technology for on-board chargers, DC-DC converters, and traction drives ranging from 6.6 to 22 kW.

Optimized Sealing Material

Freudenberg Sealing Technologies (Weinheim, Germany) offers an optimized sealing material for e-mobility applications as an alternative to PFAS-containing thermoplastic and FKM seals. This new material series is processed by injection molding, delivers superior sealing performance, ensures battery life and meets increasingly stringent environmental regulations. This high-performance elastomer material outperforms thermoplastics in the event of thermal runaway and takes battery applications in e-mobility to an entirely new level. The development of new battery materials prioritizes sustainability as well as economic aspects. In general, the longer a battery can be used, the more sustainable the electric vehicles become. The new sealing material from Freudenberg contributes to this goal. When used in customer projects, the new material was able to improve the performance-relevant leakage rate of the battery cells by an order of magnitude — resulting in a tenfold improvement compared to conventional thermoplastic seals. In addition, process engineering has optimized manufacturing techniques to such a degree that it is possible to produce these high-performance battery cell seals in large series.
