  Europe’s enthusiasm for the clean environment and energy efficiency apparently makes the electric bicycles or e-bikes a poster child of the shift from mechanical to electronic control systems. However, what’s new in the e-bike story is that China is now only issuing new licenses for e-bikes while putting an end to the permits for gas-powered bicycles.

Intersil, a subsidiary of Renesas, has introduced five synchronous buck regulators that step-down 12V rails to POL inputs as low as 0.6V for MCUs, FPGAs, memory & peripheral I/Os. The latest members of the ISL850xx family, the ISL85014, ISL85012, ISL85009, ISL85005A & ISL85005, deliver 14A, 12A, 9A and 5A of continuous output current, respectively, to industrial computers & PLCs as well as telecom, T&M, server & storage networ...

Intersil has announced the ISL94202 3-to-8 cell battery pack monitor that supports Lithium-ion (Li-ion) and other battery chemistries used in applications such as vacuum cleaners, lawn equipment, handheld power tools, e-bikes, scooters, toys and energy storage systems. Li-ion batteries are smaller, weigh less and deliver longer battery life than other battery chemistries, but require monitoring and protection for safe use.

Intersil announced the industry’s smallest isolated RS-485 differential bus transceiver designed to provide 4Mbps bidirectional data transmission for IIoT networks. The high-speed ISL32704E delivers industry-leading electromagnetic interference (EMI) and common-mode transient immunity (CMTI) in a small 4mm x 5mm QSOP package that is 70% smaller than competitive devices. It also provides 600VRMS of working voltage, which is approximately 50%...

Intersil announced the ISL78693, a 3.6V single-cell battery charger that extends the life of Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries used in automotive emergency call (eCall) systems. The ISL78693 battery charger offers up to 4x lower leakage current (3uA) than competitive chargers, allowing the eCall backup battery to remain charged for a longer period of time. See a demonstration of the ISL78693 in Intersil’s booth #E30-11 at the Autom...

Just in time for the holidays, you can get a Limited Edition 2016 Snowflake Ornament reference design to celebrate.

The industry’s first six-phase bidirectional PWM controller has been shipped by Intersil Corporation, designed to perform buck and boost power conversions between 12 and 48V automotive buses.
