[{"type":"text","content":"AUSTIN, TX / ACCESSWIRE / February 8, 2024 / Ideal Power Inc. (\"Ideal Power,\" the \"Company,\" \"we,\" \"us\" or \"our\") (NASDAQ:IPWR), pioneering the development and commercialization of the highly efficient and broadly patented B-TRAN™ bidirectional semiconductor power switch, today announced the release of B-TRAN™ and SymCool™ videos and application notes on the Company's website. These videos and application notes showcase the B-TRAN™ bidirectional power switch and multi-die SymCool™ power module.\"We are excited to share these videos and application notes for the technical audience at our prospective customers. They demonstrate the testing of discrete B-TRAN™ devices and SymCool™ power modules and the compelling advantages B-TRAN™ offers to solid-state circuit breaker (SSCB) applications. The speed and ultra-low conduction losses make B-TRAN™ an enabling technology for SSCBs providing increased efficiency, safety, and reliability over conventional electromechanical breaker technologies,\" said Jeff Knapp, Vice President of Business Development of Ideal Power.VIDEOSB-TRAN™ Demonstration VideoThis video is a comprehensive overview of the B-TRAN™ technology. Ideal Power's patented double-sided wafer fabrication process enables bidirectional operation in a single die with ultra-low conduction losses. B-TRAN™'s 5x lower conduction losses in bidirectional applications translate to more useful energy for the end-use application versus conventional technologies. The fast-switching performance of the B-TRAN™ device is similar to IGBT-based bidirectional switches.B-TRAN™ in Solid-State Circuit Breaker Application VideoThis video successfully demonstrates the operation of B-TRAN™ in a SSCB application. The video shows the large current breaking capability and fast response of B-TRAN™. The device offers a low on-state resistance of 6 mΩ. This not only increases the system's efficiency, but also allows for the reduction of the heatsink volume and the cost of OEM products. The device's quick reaction time enables safe operation in AC and DC breaker applications, resulting in an order of magnitude faster operation as compared to electromechanical breakers.SymCool™ Demonstration VideoThis video successfully demonstrates the operation of Ideal Power's SymCool™ power module in a high voltage, high current switching test.
