4 t h Annual
IEEE Workshop on Wide
Bandgap Power Devices
& Applications
IEEE Catalog Number: CFP16WBP-USB | ISBN: 978-1-5090-1575-7
SPONSORED BY THE IEEE POWER ELECTRONICS AND
ELECTRON DEVICES SOCIETIES + THE POWER SOURCES
MANUFACTURERS ASSOCIATION
SCHEDULE AT A GLANCE: SUNDAY
5:30 PM

ITRW Reception
ITRW, the International Technology Roadmap for Wide Bandgap Power
Semiconductors, is a Standards Committee within the IEEE Power
Electronics Society. In addition to the active working group meetings
they will be holding on Monday morning, ITRW will also be hosting a
networking reception for conference participants who are in Fayetteville
on Sunday evening.
ITRW’s purpose is to coordinate and focus activities globally and not to
compete with existing national organizations. Wide band-gap devices
are highly suitable to harsh working conditions such as high voltage, high
temperature, high frequency, and high radiation exposure. The working
voltage can reach as high as 10,000 volt, while the heat flux can exceed
1 *107 W/m2, which is far beyond the realm of Si devices. Applications
include spaceship, airplane, high speed train, ocean oil drilling platform,
EV /HEV and intelligent manufacturing. Application areas of internet of
things (loT) require new technologies such as power electronics, RF
devices and solid state lighting.
For more information on ITRW, please contact your local PELS
representative.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION,
PARTICIPATION, &
INNOVATIVE THINKING
Without you, WiPDA couldn’t be a success. Not only
are we grateful for your participation, we want to hear
from you about how we can improve next year!
If you need anything throughout the conference or
after it has come to an end, please feel free to reach
out to the WiPDA Organizing Committee!
We hope that you fully enjoyed your time in
Fayetteville (Woo Pig Sooie!) and that you left with
great knowledge to take back to your organization!
Sincerely, the 2016 WiPDA Leadership
