APEC 2025 Announces Call for Technical Program Paper Submissions

APEC 2025 Announces Call for Technical Program Paper Submissions

The Applied Power Electronics Conference (APEC) 2025 has announced a call for submissions for its Technical Program paper digests. The deadline for submissions is August 2, 2024. The 40th annual APEC will be held in Atlanta, Georgia, from March 16 - 20, 2025, and will continue to address significant topics relevant to power electronics engineers.

Authors interested in presenting a paper at APEC 2025 must submit a concise summary for evaluation by the August deadline. Submission instructions are available online.

The conference will cover various tracks, including:

  • AC-DC Converters: Single-phase and three-phase input converters with power factor correction (PFC), capable of operating in CCM, DCM, and CRM/BCM, and can be used in both embedded and external power supplies, including bidirectional AC/DC converters.

  • DC-DC Converters: Covering hard-switched, soft-switched, and resonant converters, point-of-load and multi-phase converters, VRMs, and bidirectional DC/DC converters.

  • DC-AC Inverters: Including single and multi-phase systems and multilevel inverters, focusing on PWM strategies, power quality, and EMI.

  • Devices and Components: Power Silicon MOSFETs, BJTs, IGBTs, GaN and SiC devices and modules, ultra-wide bandgap devices, capacitors, supercapacitors, interconnects, busbars, and fuses.

  • Magnetics: Advanced materials and geometries, winding techniques, high-frequency magnetics, additive manufacturing, modeling, and simulations.

  • Integration and Manufacturing: Packaging, high-density design, thermal management, EMI/EMC, embedded technologies, 3D packaging, additive manufacturing, production processes, and manufacturability.

  • Control Methods: Current-mode and voltage-mode control, digital control with MCUs, DSPs, FPGAs, ASICs, sensor-based and sensor-less control, gate drive circuits, fault protection, and control ICs.

  • Modeling and Simulation: Circuits and systems, device and component modeling, parasitic extraction and optimization, software tools, hardware-in-the-loop, and rapid prototyping.

  • Motor Drives: AC, DC, BLDC motor drives, actuators, integrated drives, modeling, control techniques, power quality, EMI, and sensor integration.

  • Utility Applications: FACTs devices, HVDC, solid-state transformers, energy storage, distributed energy, microgrids, power quality, UPS, active power filters, smart grids, and metering.

  • Renewable Energy Systems: PV inverters, microinverters, MPPT, wind energy systems, fuel cells, grid-tied systems, bi-directional converters, microgrids, and energy storage.

  • Wireless Power Transfer: Wireless charging, energy harvesting, powering IoT devices, and non-contact sensors for power electronics.

  • Transportation Power Electronics: Vehicular systems, hybrid and electric cars, aerospace power electronics, and charging systems.

  • Applications: Lamp ballasts, LED lighting, network and telecommunication power electronics, defense, and military applications, AC-DC-AC applications, matrix converters, portable power, and energy harvesting.

APEC 2025 invites all interested parties to submit their paper digests and contribute to advancing the field of power electronics.
