Road to Reliability: High Voltage Auxiliaries on the Road
02/04/2026 | Stanton Rak, SF Rak CompanyThus far, this series has focused on power electronics and controls that propel the vehicle. However, EVs are not solely defined by their propulsion system. While much attention is placed on inverters, traction motors, and battery cells, an ecosystem of high-voltage (HV) auxiliary systems sustains safety, comfort, and functionality. These systems, including compressors, heaters, coolant pumps, and the associated cabling, have evolved into critical components that ensure the vehicle functions reliably under a wide range of operating conditions.

Beyond IPC-2152: Creating Technology-specific Current-carrying Capacity Design Charts Using Thermal Modeling
01/29/2026 | Mike Jouppi, Thermal Management LLCDesigners commonly size traces using online calculators based on IPC-2221 or IPC-2152 charts, selecting width and thickness for a given current and allowable temperature rise (ΔT). Consideration is given to parallel conductors, although this is not a practical evaluation method for most designs. An important aspect of trace heating, especially groups of traces, is the power dissipated by the conductors. Unfortunately, the power dissipation or a method for accounting for power losses in the traces/conductors or planes is not straightforward.
ICT Winter Seminar: Leading-edge Developments in Electronics Manufacturing
01/29/2026 | Pete Starkey, I-Connect007Early fog made the journey challenging for those travelling from afar, but it lifted to reveal a clear blue sky over Hinckley, Leicestershire, which is actually closer to the exact geographical centre of England than the familiar Meriden venue, for the Institute of Circuit Technology winter seminar in December. An intriguing programme, focused on some leading-edge developments in electronics manufacturing, more than justified the effort to attend.
