Würth Elektronik has complemented its infrared product range with the new WL-SIQW SMT Infrared QFN LED Waterclear product series. The LEDs in Quad Flat No Leads (QFN) format are available in 2720, 3535 and 3737 packages with different radiant intensities from 125 to 800 mW/sr and in 90°, 120° or 150° beam angles.

Würth Elektronik actively promotes sustainable innovations, start-ups and young developers. In addition to providing components free of charge, the assistance includes, in particular, support from experienced electronics and design experts as well as the transfer of technical know-how. A current example is the support of the humanitarian project Yonah by the Würth Elektronik branch in Singapore. The start-up has developed a robust ...

Würth Elektronik has announced that they held intensive virtual tech seminars for participants of formula student for two days for the individual development team. The webinars were held for including three Exclusive Formula Student teams and Team Sonnenwagen Aachen e. V.

Würth Elektronik has published a new catalog of AEC-Q200 certified components for automotive electronics. Product highlights include new ferrites, inductors and particularly robust electromechanical components. Design kits from many product groups are available for developers—as sample sets with free refill service.

With its new catalogue for radio and sensor modules, Würth Elektronik has presented a whole series of new products with innovative details. For example, the component manufacturer offers many variants or operating modes with extremely low energy consumption to make increased use of combinations of sensors and radio modules in low-maintenance, decentralised IoT applications.

Würth Elektronik has entered into a partnership with the Finnish software developer Wirepas. The aim of the agreement is to offer a portfolio of radio modules that use the IoT network protocol Wirepas Mesh from 2021. This innovative technology can be used to create large IoT networks, for example of battery-powered sensors, in which each participant also functions as a router.

With the MagI³C-LDHM (LED Step Down High Current Module) Power Module, Würth Elektronik now has the perfect solution for LED power supply in its portfolio. To make it even easier for developers to use these DC/DC converters with integrated controller IC, inductors and capacitors, Würth Elektronik now offers an LDHM Evaluation Board.

The WE-AGDT series has made a new SMT assembly transformer available, which, at the same time, is part of a power supply solution developed by Würth Elektronik for demanding gate control of SiC MOSFETs. The innovative WE-AGDT is a compact transformer in an EP7 package. It features a wide input voltage range from nine to 36V, a high saturation current of 4.5A, as well as very low leakage inductance, and a very low capacitance of 6.8pF between...

Würth Elektronik has announced that it now offers developers wanting to use WE-MCA series chip antennas a free matching service. WE-MCA are compact SMT-mountable multilayer ceramic chip antennas available in numerous single and dual band versions.
