Abstract
With global drivers such as better energy consumption, energy efficiency and reduction of greenhouse gases, CO2 emission reduction has become key in every layer of the value chain. Power Electronics has definitely a role to play in these thrilling challenges. From converters down to compound semiconductors, innovation is leading to breakthrough technologies. Wide BandGap, Power Module Packaging, growth of Electric Vehicle market will game changed the overall power electronic industry and supply chain. In this presentation we will review power electronics trends, from technologies to markets.
