How can we make sure our chips work reliably for decades without having decades to test them? In this episode, we dive deep into the topic of silicon carbide (SiC) reliability testing with our expert guest Paul Salmen.
Be sure to check out the training Paul mentions to learn more about gate oxide reliability for CoolSiC™ devices.
In this episode, we talk to Konrad Schraml and Caspar Leendertz again about their nomination for the Deutsche Zukunftspreis. Listen to learn about the technical challenges the team from Infineon and TU Chemnitz overcame to create the world's first 3.3 kV SiC MOSFET with a vertical channel and innovative copper contacting.
We’ve been nominated for the prestigious Deutsche Zukunftspreis, the German Federal President‘s Award for Technology and Innovation! In this episode, we talk to Konrad Schraml and Caspar Leendertz about their submission: the world's first 3.3 kV SiC MOSFET with a vertical channel and innovative copper contacting. Listen in to learn how it can cut losses by 90%, saving energy in rail, solar, and wind applications, and is already making an impact worthy of the Deutsche Zukunftspreis.
The sun doesn’t always shine, and the wind doesn’t always blow. So how can we save our green energy for the times we can’t produce it? In this episode, our expert Marco Werr explains how battery energy storage systems (BESS) help harness the energy from renewables, so it is there when we need it.
How do USB connectors help machines 'see' and work smarter? In industrial automation, machine vision plays a crucial role in enabling machines to 'see' and interact with their environment. High-speed USB data transfer is the backbone of this technology, facilitating the rapid transmission of image data from cameras to processing units and allowing real-time analysis, precise quality control, and efficient decision-making. In this episode, our expert Jimmy will guide you through the advantages of USB as a connector and give you a first look into the future of USB data transfer, introducing peripheral controllers for USB 10 and 20Gbps.
To solve some of the industry’s biggest challenges, it takes players both big and small. In this episode, our Julian Haslberger and special guest Jack Herring from Jiva Materials explain how they came together to address electronic waste with recyclable PCBs as part of Infineon’s Co-Innovation Program.
Electronic waste is rapidly growing, but is there a more sustainable option to just throwing away electrical components? In this episode, our expert Andreas Kopp and special guest Jack Herring from Jiva Materials dive into how both companies are coming together to make recyclable PCBs that not only reduce waste but also withstand the demands of the semiconductor industry.
What are the main trade-offs to consider when designing a server power supply? When is it better to use unregulated topologies over the regulated ones? Find the answer and delve into the different 48 V topologies and applications with the expert guidance of our Principal Engineer Roberto Rizzolatti in the sixth episode of the "We Power AI" podcast series.
Why are robustness and quality so important when it comes to data centers?
In this fifth episode of the “We Power AI” podcast series, our expert Danny Clavette, Distinguished System Architecture Engineer, will provide some very interesting insights and examples on the server rack structure and failure rates in data center components, highlighting how Infineon solutions can support a better reliability in the GenAI world.

How can we improve power conversion efficiency, especially at the AC-DC stage? In this fourth episode of our “We Power AI” podcast series, Gerald Deboy, Fellow and Head of the PSS Innovation Lab at Infineon, dives into the different stages of power conversion and explains why data centers should embrace a combination of Si, SiC and GaN semiconductors to support GenAI requirements.
How is genAI impacting power design? In this third episode of our “We power AI” podcast series, Carl Smith, Senior Director of Information & Communication Technologies application explains how data centers’ infrastructures are shifting from the traditional 12 V power distribution architecture and lateral core rail power delivery to more efficient and high-density 48 V architecture and vertical power delivery.
Is power becoming a bottleneck in AI servers? In this second episode of our “We power AI” podcast series, Athar Zaidi, Senior Vice President and Business Line Head of Power ICs and Connectivity Systems at Infineon’s Power & Sensor Systems Division, explains how data centers’ infrastructures shall adapt to sustain the increasing power requirements of GenAI, outlining different strategies to boost efficiency.
Everybody talks about AI, but what are the consequences of such data generation and processing surge? Our expert Adam will dive into what GenAI means in terms of power requirements and environmental impact, introducing possible solutions.

Insulated-gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs) have been around for decades, but the 7th generation finally brings a much-awaited revolution. Our expert Blaž explains what the new IGBT7 technology means for silicon-based designs and what five “values” make it unique.
In this episode, our expert guests Dirk and Christoph explain “10 kWh for 100 km” and discuss how semiconductors not only enable decarbonization in eMobility, but also ensure the “fun-to-drive” factor.
The industry no longer looks at silicon carbide (SiC) as it did just a few short years ago. In this episode, EBV’s Milan Ivkovic and Infineon’s Peter Friedrichs discuss how the two companies have been working together to accelerate the adoption of SiC in a variety of applications.
Over the past three years, EBV and Infineon have been working closely together to make the transition to silicon carbide (SiC) smoother for our customers. In this episode, EBV’s Slobodan Puljarevic and Infineon’s Pierre-Yves Ferrard discuss how their partnership has evolved to achieve success – even in turbulent times.
Silicon carbide (SiC) is a precious resource, so how do we make the most of it? Join us as Vice President SiC Peter Friedrichs explains how a new technology called Cold Split is helping us get nearly double the number of wafers out of a SiC boule.
Our world is controlled by industrial drives – from the simple pump that brings water to your faucet to the advanced robotic arm that assembles your new car. Our experts Wolf-Dieter and Andreas discuss the role semiconductors play in making these industrial drives more efficient.
