onsemi Heat Pumps

The heat pump stands as a cornerstone of the global shift towards secure and sustainable heating, harnessing low-emissions electricity to provide reliable warmth. While its primary function is heating, innovative reverse cycle models also offer cooling capabilities. Moreover, by efficiently recovering waste heat and elevating its temperature to practical levels, heat pumps hold immense potential for energy conservation. As businesses pivot towards a low-carbon future, there’s a growing demand for more efficient power semiconductors. Balancing cost, footprint, and efficiency is paramount in this pursuit. onsemi Intelligent Power Modules (IPMs) emerge as a noteworthy solution within the heat pump market, offering compact design, high power density, and advanced control features.
