Enables dimmable 90 W LED ballasts in an isolated flyback topology following a boost Power Factor Correction (PFC) stage
SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--#GaN--Power Integrations (Nasdaq: POWI), the leader in high-efficiency, high-reliability LED-driver ICs, today announced a new member of the LYTSwitch™-6 family of safety-isolated LED drivers for smart lighting applications – the LYT6078C. This new LYTSwitch-6 IC uses Power Integrations’ PowiGaN™ gallium nitride (GaN) technology to deliver efficiency and performance benefits, demonstrated by the new design example report (DER-920) the company is also announcing today.
The PowiGaN-based LYT6078C IC incorporates a 750 V power switch and delivers flicker-free output up to 90 W with other members of the family providing up to 110 W. Including both the PFC stage and the LYTSwitch-6 LED driver, system efficiency exceeds 90%. Housed in the miniature InSOP-24 surface-mount package, LYTSwitch-6 ICs are protected by an advanced thermal fold-back system, which reduces output power to limit device temperature during abnormal conditions, while still providing light output. LYTSwitch-6 ICs also incorporate Power Integrations’ FluxLink™ communication technology, which allows secondary-side control without the need for an optocoupler, and provides better than ±3% CV and CC regulation across line, load, temperature, and manufacturing. All LYTSwitch-6 ICs exhibit fast transient response and easily support pulse-width-modulation (PWM) dimming.
The performance benefits of the LYT6078C are evident in a new design report (DER-920) detailing a two-stage PFC boost plus isolated flyback on a dimmable LED ballast. It employs the LYTSwitch-6 LYT6078C IC and Power Integrations’ HiperPFSTM-4 PFS7624C PFC controller and provides peak efficiency of greater than 91% when driving a 48 V LED string at 1350 mA from a 220 VAC to 277 VAC input. In standby mode, system power consumption is less than 80 mW, which provides engineers with substantial flexibility when designing lighting controls and particularly dim-to-off circuits.
Hubie Notohamiprodjo, director of product marketing for LED lighting said: “Power Integrations’ new PowiGaN-based LYTSwitch-6 ICs save lighting manufacturers space and system costs for smart lighting power supplies. The company’s key design goals for our latest design report were high power factor, low harmonic content, high efficiency, and 3-in-1 dimming with zero-to-100% output current. The new LYT6078C driver IC combined with our HiperPFS-4 PFC controller easily met these challenges.”
PowiGaN-based LYTSwitch-6 LED-driver ICs are available now, priced at $2.52 in 10,000 quantities. Technical support and the DER-920 design report are available from the Power Integrations website at https://www.power.com/lytswitch-6/.

https://www.technavio.com/report/nuclear-powered-naval-vessels-market-industry-analysis
The market is driven by the cost-effectiveness of nuclear power. In addition, the technological developments targeted towards the next-generation nuclear reactor are anticipated to boost the growth of the nuclear powered naval vessels market.
Naval vessels that run on fossil fuels are associated with high operational costs. For example, the Arleigh Burke-class destroyer typically consumes 24 barrels of fuel per hour and it varies depending on factors such as wind force, payload, tides, and others. This makes them too expensive to operate. These factors are increasing the preference for nuclear powered naval vessels. These are powered by uranium fission reaction that generates heat, which is further used to make steam to produce electricity. In addition, the cores of nuclear-powered carriers are designed to last for 25 years, while those of submarines last for 10-33 years before having to undergo refueling. This significantly reduces the cost of power generation, which is one of the key factors driving the growth of the global nuclear powered naval vessels market.

BEND, Ore.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Element 1 Corp (“e1” or “the Company”), a leading developer of hydrogen generation technology, in collaboration with Co-Win Hydrogen Power Company Limited (“CO-WIN”), announced today that e1’s proprietary methanol-based M-Series hydrogen generator has been incorporated onto a medium-duty fuel cell truck produced by one of the world’s largest truck manufacturing companies. Extended road testing of the vehicle is underway in Asia and represents a significant milestone towards the commercialization of e1’s onboard hydrogen generation technology. The Company stated that it is becoming increasingly engaged with partners around the world on a wide range of hydrogen energy projects.
Globally, particulate matter emissions from combustion engines burning fossil fuels causes millions of premature deaths annually. These dangerous emissions are not produced by fuel cell powered vehicles as the only emission is water vapor. The M-Series produces no particulate matter in the generation of hydrogen, and when using methanol produced from waste gas streams such as landfill gas or biogas, e1’s hydrogen generation solution is carbon neutral.
“CO-WIN is both a valued strategic partner and licensee of e1, and we are excited to be working with them on this fuel cell truck project,” said Dave Edlund, e1’s Chief Executive Officer. “The hydrogen generation technology being deployed is unique to e1 and is a game changer for clean transportation. To my knowledge, no other company in the world can provide a commercial onboard hydrogen generation product comparable to our M-Series product line. Our broad collaboration with CO-WIN is expected to result in the mass commercialization of fuel cell systems supporting not only transportation, but also telecom and distributed power applications throughout the Asian market.”
William Tang and Ken Tang, shareholders of CO-WIN and e1 stated, “We believe our onboard fuel cell system incorporating the e1 technology will provide clean and reliable power solutions for the Asian market which are also environmentally friendly and cost effective. We look forward to working with both e1 and our Asian partners on this vehicle demonstration project and the ensuing large-scale commercial rollout of this unique and enabling technology.”
Fuel cell vehicles typically require a pure grade of hydrogen in order to produce the electricity needed for propulsion. Historically, this hydrogen has been compressed and stored on the vehicle, which necessitates a costly network of hydrogen refueling stations to be developed. In many regions of the world, building out this infrastructure is simply not feasible. On-demand hydrogen generation from liquid methanol onboard the vehicle mitigates the need for hydrogen fueling infrastructure. In regions where stationary hydrogen refueling stations are being installed, e1’s L-Series product line provides a very cost effective, modular solution for generating fuel cell grade hydrogen on-site.
The methanol used by e1’s hydrogen generators requires a fraction of the space onboard the vehicle compared to compressed hydrogen, enabling significantly greater driving range between fueling. This range extension is critical for heavy- and medium-duty fuel cell trucks traveling long distances each day. In addition to fuel cell truck applications, e1 is experiencing considerable world-wide interest from firms developing fuel cell powered marine vessels. The Company expects to be making significant announcements in the coming weeks relative to on-board hydrogen generation for marine applications in both the commercial and military space.

FORT WORTH, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Lonestar Resources US Inc. (the “Company” or “Lonestar”) (NASDAQ: LONE) today announced that it and certain of its direct and indirect wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries (collectively with the Company, the “Debtors”) have entered into a Restructuring Support Agreement (the “Support Agreement”) with its largest stakeholders that will eliminate approximately $390 million in aggregate debt obligations and preferred equity interests.
Under the terms of the Support Agreement, approximately $250 million of the Company’s 11.250% Senior Notes due 2023 (the “Notes”) will be converted to equity and accrued interest thereon will be extinguished. In addition, lenders under the Company’s revolving credit facility who agree to accept the Plan (as defined below) will, among other things, receive their pro rata share of warrants (the “New Warrants”) to purchase up to 10% of the new equity interests in the Company (subject to dilution only by the issuance of new equity interests under a management incentive plan (“MIP Equity”)), revolving loans under the exit revolving credit facility, and term loans under the second-out exit term facility. Holders of preferred equity interests in the Company will receive their pro rata share of 3% of the new equity interests in the Company (subject to dilution by the MIP Equity and the New Warrants) and holders of existing Class A Common Stock in the Company will receive their pro rata share of 1% of the new equity interests in the Company (subject to dilution by the MIP Equity and New Warrants).
Under the terms of the Support Agreement, the Debtors would effectuate the proposed transactions through a prepackaged plan of reorganization (the “Plan”) under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code (“Chapter 11”). The Company has already obtained support for the proposed transactions from lenders holding 100 percent of the aggregate principal amount outstanding under its revolving credit facility, noteholders holding approximately 67.1 percent of the aggregate principal amount outstanding under its Notes, and holders of 100 percent of its preferred equity interests.
The Company is confident, based on the Support Agreement, that it will be able to meet its financial commitments and otherwise continue to operate its business as usual throughout the restructuring period. The Company anticipates funding the Cases and continuing to operate the business with cash-on-hand and certain proceeds from the consensual termination of the Debtors’ existing hedging arrangements with certain lenders under its revolving credit facility. The Support Agreement contemplates that the Company will continue operating its business without disruption to its customers, vendors, partners or employees. In addition, the Support Agreement contemplates that unsecured trade creditors will be paid in full under the Plan.
“We have carefully considered our options in the unprecedented environment faced by the energy industry and concluded that a consensual restructuring is in the best interest of the Company. In combination with our efforts to meaningfully reduce our capital and operating costs, the significant reduction in leverage that this transaction will afford the Company will position Lonestar to be highly competitive going forward,” said Frank D. Bracken III, Chief Executive Officer of the Company.
The Company is represented in this matter by Latham & Watkins LLP, Hunton Andrews Kurth LLP, Intrepid Partners LLC, Rothschild & Co US Inc. and AlixPartners, LLP.
About Lonestar
Lonestar is an independent energy company, focused on the development, production and acquisition of unconventional oil, natural gas liquids and natural gas properties in the Eagle Ford Shale in Texas.
