Thyro-XD combines a compact form factor with
industry-leading speed and precision
Advanced Energy Industries, Inc. (Nasdaq: AEIS), a global leader
in highly engineered, precision power conversion, measurement and
control solutions, announced a new silicon-controlled rectifier
(SCR) power controller for precision control of lamp-based heating
applications. Delivering unprecedented speed and accuracy, the new
Thyro-XD™ supports next-generation semiconductor manufacturing and
industrial processes that demand precision temperature control,
especially during extreme and dynamic ramps.

The Thyro-XD provides highly accurate,
rapid load resistance measurement, enabling faster detection of
temperature changes and tighter process control. It has a
high-power density of 188 W/in3, is optimized for semiconductor
tools, and doubles the control capacity versus other available
products. With convection cooling, it eliminates the need for fans,
improving simplicity and reliability.
“Demand for smaller, faster, and more efficient computer chips
is driving the need for innovative controls in wafer processing
equipment for semiconductor production,” said Dhaval Dhayatkar,
Advanced Energy’s vice president, Critical Sensing and Control
Products, System Power. “The new Thyro-XD offers unmatched speed
and precision for temperature control, significantly enhancing
stability and repeatability, particularly for lamp-based heating
applications, in the smallest form factor available.”
The Thyro-XD provides highly accurate, rapid load resistance

capacity versus other available products. With convection cooling,
it eliminates the need for fans, improving simplicity and
reliability.
With real-time resistance measurement, the Thyro-XD SCR can
prevent potential damage to resistors, reducing expensive
maintenance and replacement. In addition, a five-fold increase in
load voltage, load current and output power accuracy enables
fastest compensation for input fluctuations while increasing
efficiency.
The Thyro-XD provides optional EtherCat connectivity through
optional Advanced Bus Module™ (ABM) and interface cards and can
integrate temperature feedback from multiple Advanced Energy Impac®
measurement pyrometers for real-time temperature control.
