Mountbatten Room
10:15 to 11:15 AM
Mountbatten Room
Professor Johnson will be discussing Challenges and Opportunities for UK Power Electronics.
11:15 to 11:30 AM
Coffee break
11:30 AM to 12:30 PM
Track A - Mountbatten Room
Workshop: EMI challenges and troubleshooting techniques
Presented by Applications Engineering
Without proper consideration, EMI can derail projects and create costly delays. With a real-world troubleshooting example, you will learn about basic EMI measurement, common and differential noise sources and identification methods, conducted EMI pre-compliance testing, layout issues, etc.
Track B - Siemens Room
Workshop: Modular DC-DC system design done right
Presented by Applications Engineering
Real-world systems comprise more than just the DC-DC converter itself. Using a case study to examine the requirements of module integration into a DC-DC system, you will learn topics such as input and output filtering, protections, compatibility with the source and load dynamics.
12:30 to 1:15 PM
Lunch
1:15 to 2:15 PM
Track A - Mountbatten Room
Workshop: Avoiding common AC-DC design pitfalls
Presented by Applications Engineering
Design-in of AC-DC front end modules can be complicated. This session will provide a straightforward approach for success, covering such topics as source impedance considerations, inrush current, filter resonance and damping, PFC, faults, fusing, system stability and safety.
Track B - Siemens Room
Workshop: High-performance PCB layout and thermal design techniques
Presented by Applications Engineering
Our experts will share their optimization techniques addressing the following topics: applying thermal models and simulation, PCB layout for effective thermal management, power/signal routing and integrity in high density, high current applications to minimize board losses and maximize performance.
2:15 to 2:30 PM
