The secret to efficient and effective heating, delivered by the
Midea appliance, is NXP’s MHT1004N, a low-voltage solid state
cooking transistor which creates and delivers energy in an
effective and efficient way. The component enables greater control
over the heating process and allows the Midea appliance to control
energy in a closed loop manner for evenly heated food. The
semiconductor cooking method also enables consistent results
thereby enabling smart features for internet-connected
appliances.
“We’re excited to team up with NXP and transform the
conventional methods of cooking to solid state,” said Luan Chun,
director of the appliances business unit innovation center at
Midea. “Together, we’ve also jointly developed a standard system
unit, which enables us to quickly implement new designs using a
flexible, modular approach for future product developments.”
"Midea and NXP have been cooperating for years to research and
develop solutions for the future smart kitchen,” said Mr. Wu Dong,
senior director of RF products at NXP Semiconductors Asia Pacific.
“This new appliance calls upon our years of collaborating and
innovating together with the same vision -- to usher in a smarter
cooking experience into consumers’ kitchens.”
The new product from Midea is based on the MHT1004N, the latest
generation cooking component from NXP. The MHT1004N is specifically
developed as a 300 watt cooking device. For more information about
