Summary:As transportation, commercial, industrial, and our homes undergo increased electrification, the need for highly reliable, smaller, and lower cost power electronics will increase. Application Specific Electronics Package (ASEP) is a next generation MID technology that enables the design and manufacture of power electronics that will meet these demands. Compared to traditional devices, ASEP smart connectors and power modules are often 40 to 80 percent smaller, 10 to 40 percent lighter, more reliable, more capable, and mate to standard connector interfaces, while remaining cost effective. Furthermore, the manufacturing process can be highly automated and uses 90 percent less water than common PCB manufacturing steps. In this paper, we will describe how ASEP was used to implement a next-generation line of Solid-State Relays (SSR). ASEP will lead the electronics industry into a new generation of electronics manufacturing.
