The current paradigm of the energy transition has shifted the focus from mere storage capacity toward long‑term reliability and cost‑effectiveness. In critical sectors such as residential and commercial energy storage, electric mobility, and high‑availability industrial systems, the priority is no longer just how much energy we can accumulate, but how to ensure operational safety and a service life that justifies the initial investment. Engineers and project managers now face the challenge of implementing solutions capable of withstanding intensive duty cycles under variable conditions, requiring technologies that minimize thermal risks and simplify maintenance in self‑consumption or grid‑optimization infrastructures.

In today’s electronic design ecosystem, energy management requires a precise balance between autonomy and instant responsiveness. Many industrial and consumer applications do not need large long‑term energy reserves, but rather the ability to handle load peaks, perform extremely fast charge–discharge cycles, or ensure critical data backup during a voltage drop.

To meet these needs, RC Microelectrónica introduces SCHURTER’s new range of Coin Cell Supercapacitors. These components, available in the SCCA (horizontal mounting) and SCCC (vertical mounting) series, position themselves as a superior alternative to conventional batteries in applications where reliability and service life are non‑negotiable. By offering a power density ten to one hundred times higher than a rechargeable battery, they enable near‑instant energy transfer.

Modern hardware design faces a constant challenge: the need to integrate greater processing capabilities into increasingly smaller spaces. In applications such as low‑profile DC/DC converters for PMICs or filtering systems in industrial and consumer devices, every square millimeter counts. To meet this demand for higher power density, Vishay has introduced the new IHLP1212‑EZ‑1Z inductor — a solution engineered to deliver exceptional thermal and electrical efficiency in an extremely compact format.

The energy demand of modern commercial vehicles continues to grow. Hoteling systems, auxiliary equipment, advanced telematics, and intensive duty cycles are pushing manufacturers to develop more robust and efficient storage solutions. In this context, GS Yuasa has taken a decisive step with the launch of the new Yuasa YBX9625 AGM Super Heavy Duty battery, the first AGM specifically designed for its commercial vehicle range. This release expands the Yuasa YBX® CV family and strengthens the manufacturer’s position as a technological leader in the sector.

In many industrial applications, the RF generator architecture is critical. Factors such as frequency stability and energy efficiency can determine the difference between a profitable process and an inefficient one. The new RFHIC RCM2800-20G is designed specifically for these demanding environments. This solid-state generator, based on GaN technology, can deliver up to 800 W in the ISM band, providing precise control for semiconductor systems.

In power electronics designs where the DC bus exceeds 800 V—or even 1000 V—the architecture of the capacitor bank has a direct impact on system reliability, PCB footprint, and overall cost. The extension of Vishay BCcomponents’ 193 PUR-SI series addresses exactly this need: snap-in aluminum electrolytic capacitors now rated at 550 V and 600 V, enabling the simplification of traditional topologies based on multiple devices connected in series.

The rise in voltage and power in industrial and energy systems presents new challenges in electrical protection. Moreover, applications such as electric vehicle charging infrastructure, energy storage systems (BESS), power converters, and high-power industrial equipment operate with increasingly demanding DC voltages and high currents. In these environments, effective protection against short circuits and overcurrents is not just a matter of regulatory compliance—it is also a key factor in ensuring safety, system reliability, and operational continuity.

In industrial power electronics, every tenth of a volt matters—especially in high-current applications, where conduction losses directly impact thermal efficiency, system sizing, and long-term reliability. Vishay Intertechnology expands its portfolio with four new 100 V TMBS® Gen 2 Schottky rectifier modules, designed to optimize power conversion in demanding industrial applications.

In modern power systems—such as electric‑vehicle charging infrastructure, telecommunications, or industrial equipment—cable protection must withstand high currents and transient surges. On top of that, these environments are often exposed to continuous thermal cycling and harsh ambient conditions.

When the fuse isn’t up to the task, unexpected interruptions—or even critical field failures—can occur. That’s why in applications where service continuity is essential, choosing the right fuse makes a real difference in both reliability and safety.

In this context, the new SCHURTER ARO inline fuse meets these demands with a compact design, exceptional breaking capacity, and high mechanical and thermal resilience. It stands out as a solid choice for demanding environments.

In an increasingly electrified and digitalized environment, sectors such as industrial, medical, renewable energy, and electric mobility face a common challenge: ensuring the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) of their systems. Interference can cause anything from production stoppages in factories to failures in hospital equipment, or efficiency losses in solar plants and electric vehicle charging stations. The pressure to increase power, reduce response times, and comply with international standards means systems operate under extreme conditions, where reliability is non-negotiable.

This is where Schurter EMC filters play a decisive role: they protect power electronics from disturbances, ensure a stable supply, and allow each sector to meet the most demanding standards. Whether in industrial converters, precision medical equipment, photovoltaic systems, or fast chargers, Schurter filters guarantee continuity, safety, and performance. That’s why at RC Microelectrónica, official Schurter distributor in Spain and Portugal, we highlight these EMC filters as key solutions to tackle the challenges of the new technological era.

The Global EV Outlook 2025 from the IEA confirms that electric mobility has reached a point of maturity. In 2024, more than 17 million electric vehicles were sold, and in 2025 the figure will exceed 20 million, with a market share already surpassing 25%. The challenge, however, is no longer the vehicle itself, but the charging infrastructure.

High-power DC fast chargers (HPC) have become the true bottleneck of the energy transition. Although the number of ultra-fast stations above 150 kW grew by 50% in 2024, public capacity will need to increase ninefold before 2030 to meet projected demand. In this new scenario, the reliability of power components and proper thermal management are emerging as decisive factors for the next phase of electric mobility deployment

At RC Microelectrónica, official distributor of Ferroxcube in Spain and Portugal, we present the new 3F37 ferrite, an MnZn material optimized for power conversion in the 300 kHz to 1 MHz range, specifically designed for fast-switching GaN and SiC devices. With minimal losses around 500 kHz, 3F37 enables the development of compact, efficient, and high power density modules.

Vishay has expanded its portfolio of high-voltage radial disc ceramic capacitors, a solution designed for applications where reliability, stability, and resistance to extreme conditions are critical factors. These new components offer rated voltages of up to 15,000 VDC (5,300 VAC) while maintaining a very low dissipation factor and high insulation resistance.

In applications such as energy storage, telecommunications, or data centers, one of the major challenges is achieving a balance between energy density, operational reliability, and optimization of available rack and infrastructure space. Added to this is the need for intelligent management systems that ensure safety and extend battery service life.

Aware of these demands, Huison has developed a new 51.2V lithium rack-mount battery that directly addresses these requirements. Its compact 2U height design (89 mm) maximizes space utilization without compromising performance, offering a capacity of up to 110Ah (5.6 kWh). This solution is designed for environments where efficiency, scalability, and system robustness are critical factors.

In industrial, electric mobility, aerospace, or robotics systems, direct current switches are not merely components: they are critical elements for ensuring system safety, reliability, and efficiency. DC switching presents specific challenges, including the formation of electrical arcs that can damage contacts, generate EMC interference, and compromise safety. Therefore, designers seek solutions that minimize these risks, offer long service life, and fit into compact and demanding environments.

SCHURTER introduces its new EDC Switch (Electronic Direct Current), designed to provide reliable DC switching even in the most demanding environments. This switch combines the mechanical precision of a micro switch with integrated power electronics, achieving completely arc-free switching and eliminating one of the major risks of DC switching.

In an increasingly competitive market, energy costs represent a significant expense for many businesses. The good news is that if you already have solar panels or are considering installing them, you can take your investment to the next level with a battery energy storage system.

These systems allow you to store excess solar energy generated during peak sunlight hours and use it during periods of higher demand or when grid electricity is more expensive. Additionally, Ampowr has developed Cosmos (EMS – Energy Management System), an internal energy management platform designed to monitor assets, optimize energy flows, improve efficiency, reduce costs, ensure reliability, and enhance profitability. The software also supports energy strategies that drive better performance and greater sustainability.

In recent years, the energy management landscape has changed dramatically. The shift towards more efficient, reliable, and sustainable electrical systems has highlighted technologies that until recently were considered niche. Among them, supercapacitors stand out.

Unlike traditional batteries, supercapacitors are not designed to store energy for hours but to deliver and absorb power almost instantly. Schurter, a Swiss manufacturer with a long-standing reputation for high-quality components for critical applications, has developed a line of compact supercapacitors that open new possibilities across sectors such as automotive, renewable energy, and industrial instrumentation.

RC Microelectrónica introduces GS Yuasa’s latest innovation: the new SWL+ range, the evolution of their well-known SWL series. This new generation sets a new standard in VRLA batteries, designed for applications that demand maximum reliability and performance in critical power systems.

The new SWL+ series has been developed to meet the growing demands of uninterruptible power systems (UPS) and energy storage in environments where every second and every cycle matters. From data centers that cannot afford downtime, to critical infrastructures and large industrial facilities, this battery family delivers increased power, longevity, and stability even under intensive usage conditions.

In power electronics, renewable energy, or critical measurement systems applications, the need to isolate analog signals with millivolt-level precision remains a top technical challenge. Especially in noisy industrial environments, where electromagnetic interference and common-mode transients can compromise signal fidelity, having a reliable isolation solution is key to ensuring stable, safe measurements free from frequent recalibrations.

With these demanding environments in mind, Vishay has launched a new series of high-reliability isolation amplifiers, including the VIA0050DD, VIA0250DD, and VIA2000SD models, which offer industry-leading performance. As official distributors, at RC Microelectrónica we present the key technical highlights of this new family, designed for critical environments where precision and immunity are top priorities.

Unlike other characterizations based on standard toroids, Ferroxcube has evaluated the 3C97T using toroidal cores machined from ferrite slabs, providing a more accurate representation of the material’s behavior in real wireless charging applications.

Although these tests may report slightly higher loss values than those obtained with ideal cores, the benefit lies in the reliability of the data for the final system design, minimizing the gap between simulation results and the actual product performance.
