International Rectifier is a pioneer and world leader in advanced power management technology. Applying IR’s power management expertise to electronics - to save world resources while extending high performance computing - is our sole mission.

Increasingly, the benchmarks in power management are defined by the advancement of innovative architectures that deliver a blend of cutting-edge analog and mixed signal ICs, power semiconductors, processes, software and packaging technology to remove the barriers hindering progress.

LEADING-EDGE PRODUCTS

Revolutionary Thermal Management – DirectFET™ Packaging
Industry-breakthrough DirectFET packaging allows double-sided heat dissipation so that high performance computers can run cool. Inside its first year, the order rate for the DirectFET family has made it the fastest growing in IR’s history.
Patented Silicon – High-Voltage ICs and HEXFET® Power MOSFETS
IR’s industry-leading highvoltage ICs and HEXFET MOSFETs are found in an array of products including plasma TV displays and electronic light ballasts.
Innovative Architectures – xPHASE™ and iMOTION™
Just as Intel’s Pentium architecture became a driving force on computer motherboards, xPHASE defines distributed power for these same motherboards. Similarly, iMOTION establishes the power delivery standard for a myriad of motordriven equipment like your air conditioner, your refrigerator, or the industrial robot that produced your car.
Integrated Application-Tuned Solutions - iPOWIR and DCBus
Off-the-shelf and fully-tested building blocks like iPOWIR products and complete mixed signal chip sets such as DCBus, allow computer design engineers to get their products to market rapidly and reliably.

Technological breakthroughs like these and others from IR will continue to set the pace for innovation in the electronics industry today and tomorrow.
