High-Efficiency Induction Heaters

Overview

Description

Induction technology is revolutionizing modern appliances by offering compact, energy-efficient, and reliable solutions for kitchens and beyond. With up to 90% efficiency compared to traditional gas or electric heating, induction technology is a preferred choice for modern applications. Their smart features like capacitive touch controls, timers, and precise power adjustments enhance usability and safety.

Induction cooktops offer rapid and focused heating for robust and simple cooking experiences. This 2100W single-plate induction cooktop design includes a smart IGBT driver and controller single-chip ASSP, ensuring high efficiency and reliability. It allows precise power adjustments in ±10W steps, even for simmering conditions, and integrates advanced safety features like over-temperature detection managed by three negative temperature coefficient resistors (NTCs). The capacitive touch sensing unit (CTSU) ensures reliable touch functionality, even in wet conditions, further simplifying operation.

Induction heaters bring similar innovation and efficiency to water heating. They heat a larger surface area within the tank using magnetic induction, ensuring uniform temperature distribution. The induction water heater design also utilizes the smart IGBT driver, optimizing induction heating with an integrated digital controller and analog driver, enhancing efficiency and safety through features like overload and overvoltage protection. The compact design and gradient LED lights indicate different heat modes.

System Benefits​:

  • The integrated ASSP design offers a low-cost system with a reduced component count.
  • Features like AC input, IGBT voltage spike detection, and current sensing enable fast protection response. This digital controller with analog driver blocks using a state machine for quicker response times.
  • The blower fan's speed and soft start are controlled via a load switch.
  • Patented low-power technology allows power adjustments to ±10W, enabling precise simmering.
  • The IGBT driver combines a digital controller and analog driver blocks in one IC, optimizing induction heating performance.
  • Safety is paramount in home appliances, with features like overload and overvoltage protection.
  • The design is compact and modern, featuring gradient LED lights to indicate heating modes.
