The Yokogawa WT3000 digital power analyser equipped with IEC harmonics testing software complies with the latest EN standard on harmonics testing: EN61000-3-2:2006. IEC Standard 61000-4-7 Ed. 2, which is now obligatory as the test method for harmonics testing, specifies that the test instrument must be able to accept current input signals with a crest factor (peak current divided by RMS current) of at least 4 for inputs up to 5 A RMS, 3.5 for inp...

The new power entry module 6136 from SCHURTER combines an appliance inlet and circuit breaker into one component. The series provides a simple and cost effective overcurrent protection, particularly suited for applications with motors.

National Instruments has announced plans for NIWeek, its graphical system design conference and exhibition that attracts more than 3,000 engineers, educators and scientists.

Altium has appointed TACT Software Solutions as its new reseller in Israel. TACT will resell Altium Designer, Altium’s next generation electronics design solution, and its TASKING embedded software development tool.

Maxim Integrated Products introduces the X4995A/MAX4995AL/MAX4995B/MAX4995C/MAX4995AF family of 1.4mm x 1.8mm, high-accuracy, programmable current-limit switches. Designed to protect host devices against faulty load conditions, these devices feature a ±10% accurate current limit that can be programmed with an external resistor from 50mA to 600mA for design flexibility. These devices are ideal for SDIO and other load-switching applications, and t...

Maxim Integrated Products introduces the MAX17075 boost regulator with integrated charge pumps, switch control, and a high-current operational amplifier. Developed using Maxim's proprietary high-voltage process technology, this device integrates all functions required to power the source drivers, gate drivers, and VCOM backplane in LCDs. It also includes a switch for gate-driver-supply modulation. A highly integrated, step-up DC-DC converter, the...

UNIPOWER Corporation has announced the latest member of its EASYMOD family. The AF-180PM is a medically qualified switch mode power supply designed to provide up to 180W of highly regulated output power in single, dual, triple or quad configurations with outputs from 1.5 to 48VDC.

Following the success of its XC8101 Series low supply current line switch IC, Torex Semiconductor introduces the 2nd generation XC8102 Series. Available in the ultra-small USP-4 package, as well as in standard SOT-25 and SSOT-24 versions, the new device does not require any external capacitors and so is suitable for space critical designs such as those in hand-held, battery-powered applications.
