Infineon Technologies AG has expanded its CoolSET System-in-Package (SiP) portfolio with three new models—ICE188LM, ICE189LM, and ICE180LM. These additions broaden the output power capabilities of the platform while helping appliance manufacturers meet stricter European energy-efficiency and standby power requirements. The CoolSET SiP combines a high-voltage MOSFET, a PWM controller, a synchronous rectification controller, reinforced isolation, and multiple protection features into a single compact package. By integrating these functions, the solution reduces power losses, minimizes component requirements, and simplifies the development of energy-efficient auxiliary power supplies for household appliances with power ratings of up to 150 W.
Target applications include washing machines, refrigerators, dishwashers, dryers, and ovens, which are major home appliance categories for which compliance with EU Ecodesign and standby power requirements is mandatory for market access. The solution supports standby and no-load power consumption as low as 30 mW while maintaining high efficiency across the full operating range, giving appliance manufacturers a reliable path to regulatory compliance without compromising system performance.
As EU Ecodesign requirements become more stringent and extend to additional appliance categories, auxiliary power supply design has become a central compliance consideration for white goods OEMs. The CoolSET SiP addresses this directly by consolidating the key power conversion and control functions into a single qualified package, reducing the number of external components and simplifying EMI management. The integrated switching behavior and protection features are optimized to meet the loss budgets defined by current and upcoming EU regulations. Manufacturers benefit from reduced design complexity, faster qualification cycles, and a scalable platform architecture that supports consistent regulatory compliance across multiple product variants and power ratings within the same appliance family.
The CoolSET SiP is well suited to the long product lifecycles and high-volume platform requirements characteristic of the white goods industry. By providing a fully integrated solution qualified against current EU regulatory requirements, Infineon enables appliance OEMs to shorten development timelines and reduce the engineering effort required to address successive regulatory updates. The solution supports EU sustainability and energy reduction targets, including both active-mode efficiency requirements and the increasingly tight limits on standby and off-mode power consumption that apply to appliances placed on the European market.
