MALVERN, PA — (Marketwired) — 10/11/13 — Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (NYSE: VSH) today announced that it will be exhibiting its latest passive components in booth A6-507A at eCarTec Munich 2013, the world-s largest trade fair for electric and hybrid mobility, being held at the Munich Trade Fair Centre from Oct. 15-17. At the event, the company will be highlighting industry-leading inductors, resistors, thermal fuses, and more for a wide range of applications in hybrid electric vehicles (HEV) and full electric vehicles (FEV).
At eCarTec Munich 2013, Vishay will be showcasing its IHLP® low-profile, high-current inductors; IHCL coupled inductors; and IHTH high-current through-hole inductors for DC/DC converters up to 3.6 kW. In addition, the company-s thick film power resistors and massive electro-pyrotechnic ignitor chip resistor (MEPIC) will be on display for power conversion and safety applications. The devices provide high-temperature performance, high reliability, and high pulse capability for main inverters, high-energy bus systems, and energy recuperation in HEVs, in addition to converters/boosters, battery management, chargers, and safety equipment in FEVs.
To reduce component counts and provide a reliable and predictable design for voltage metering applications, Vishay-s SMD MELF resistors will be on display. The devices offer low temperature coefficients from 5 ppm/K to 50 ppm/K, tight tolerances from 0.02 % to 1 %, high stability, and high pulse load capability. At eCarTec Munich 2013, Vishay will provide a demonstration of the pulse load capabilities of the devices, as well as the company-s SMD film resistors. For power applications, the company will demonstrate the high-current capabilities and safety function of its HCTF thermal fuse.
For current sensing applications, Vishay will be highlighting its Power Metal Strip® current sense shunt resistors. Practically unaffected by temperature fluctuations, the devices offer resistance from 0.2 milliohms to 1 ohm, low tolerances, wide temperature ranges from -65 degrees C to +275 degrees C, power ratings to 5 W, and low thermal EMF. The devices are ideal for electric power steering (EPS), DC/DC converters, battery management systems, automatic braking systems, engine controls, airbags, and comfort controls. Vishay will be highlighting a 100 micro-ohm Power Metal Strip shunt resistor in an intelligent battery current sensing demonstration, which will also feature the company-s solid tantalum SMD capacitors, Schottky diodes, NTC thermistors, and thick film resistors.
