AgileSwitch, LLC announced that it has received funding from Ben Franklin Technology Partners (BFTP) of Southeastern Pennsylvania for design, development and testing of Advanced Power Conversion Assemblies (APCA) modules to be delivered to potential customers who are manufacturers of solar inverters, wind turbines, smart grid and other providers of renewable energy products.
The company says the need for its products is being driven by market requirements for more powerful, faster IGBT Switch Drivers capable of withstanding higher voltages. As both switching speeds and switch sizes increase, the demands on Switch Drivers increase.
