300mA low-dropout voltage regulator
Read more
The TPS7A10 is an ultra-small, low quiescent current, low-dropout regulator (LDO) that can source 300mA with ac performance (load and line transient responses). This device has an input range of 0.75V to 3.3V, and output range of 0.5V to 3.0V with a very high accuracy of 1.5% over load, line and temperature. This performance is suitable for powering the lower core voltages of the modern MCUs and analog sensors.

Self cleaning textiles could improve PPE
Read more
Nelumbo nucifera, also known as the Sacred Lotus, is an aquatic plant prized for its beautiful flowers and uses in fine east-Asian cuisine. It’s also the namesake of the ‘lotus effect’, where water simply rolls straight off its hydrophobic skin. A material like this could find many uses, but in medicine is where real changes can be made. Here, Ben Smye, Head of Growth at Matmatch, highlights how self cleaning textiles such as antimicrobial and hydrophobic materials are pushing medicine forward.
