Power Electronics International takes place next week, from April 20 to 22 in Brussels. ITEST and AMCAD will be present as Gold Sponsors on a shared booth, covering the full range of reliability and characterization solutions for power semiconductors — from standard platforms to specific developments. From standard platforms to specific developments The rise of…
Last week, we had the pleasure of attending Powering The Shift: On The Road in Toulouse, hosted in the unique setting of La Halle de La Machine. Beyond the impressive venue, the event brought together key players in power electronics to discuss very concrete challenges: efficiency, reliability, and the growing complexity of power devices and…
Switching losses mainly occur during the turn-on and turn-off phases of power switching devices, when voltage and current are present at the same time. In modern power converters, these losses represent a significant share of the total energy dissipation. They strongly depend on the control strategy, especially on the switching signal shape and the voltage…
As part of the SORASYS 1 project carried out for LookUp Space, ITEST supplied the power solutions used to operate the radar system amplifiers. The project addresses critical challenges in space surveillance and contributes to improving space traffic monitoring. Understanding the role of radar in the SORASYS project A radar operates by emitting signals, often…
We are pleased to announce that ITEST will be exhibiting at ESREF 2025, held in Bordeaux from 6 to 9 October 2025.As one of the leading international conferences dedicated to reliability of semiconductor devices and circuits, ESREF gathers engineers, researchers, and industry leaders to share expertise and explore the latest advances in reliability testing. Why…
In the field of electronics, ensuring the reliability of components is a critical factor in product development. One of the most widely used models to describe the failure rate of electronic components over time is the bathtub curve. Understanding this curve allows engineers to implement strategies to reduce failure rates and enhance the lifespan of…
Are complex testing and measurement challenges holding you back?Precision, flexibility, and reliability are crucial in testing and measurement. That’s why we’ve created modular systems that seamlessly adapt to a wide range of testing environments, ensuring consistent, high-quality results every time. Whether it’s DC sources, pulsed voltage sources, current sources, heating plates, or other essential functions…
