2. Progress in Integrated Magnetics for Innovative Power Converter Topologies

Published: September 2025 — Continuous improvement in integrated magnetics for innovative topologies for power converters

Exxelia smart integrated magneticsThis report highlights how Exxelia’s engineering teams have refined their approach to integrated magnetic components, particularly for Dual Active Bridge (DAB) power converters. By defining structured design rules and focusing simulations on fine-tuning critical parameters like inductance and eddy current losses, development cycles have become faster and more precise. The piece also summarizes the successful design of multiple Combined Magnetic Integrated (CMI) components covering power ranges from 1 kW to 25 kW at frequencies between 100 kHz and 320 kHz, tailored for space, aerospace, and industrial power systems.

For system designers aiming to reduce size and weight without compromising power performance, this article sheds light on how integrated magnetics can advance modern converter implementations.

3. European Pulse Capacitors with Integrated Bleed Resistor

Published: August 2025 — Exxelia’s CF/CFS Series: the only European pulse capacitors with integrated bleed resistor

Exxelia CF CFS SeriesIn this article, Exxelia introduces the CF/CFS series of pulse capacitors that are distinguished by an integrated bleed resistor option — a combination that simplifies circuit design and space usage in high-voltage applications. Designed with C4xx dielectric, these multilayer ceramic capacitors offer a broad capacitance range from tens of picofarads up to several microfarads and operate reliably across –55 °C to +125 °C with voltage ratings from 500 V up to 10 kV. The bleed resistor integration enhances safety and discharge control for pulse power systems used in industrial, aerospace, and energy sectors.

This piece is particularly relevant for engineers working on pulsed power and high-voltage circuits seeking components that combine electrical performance with practical integration benefits.
