Integrated modular short 1U LCD screen and keyboard drawer
Austin Hughes Europe has announced the new reduced depth N series 1U LCD keyboard drawer, designed specifically for use in 600mm deep racks without loss of functionality. The unit offers a choice of 17 or 19 Samsung Class 'A' LCD panels and is fitted as standard with both PS/2 and USB combo connectivity using the latest CE cable design, which has a single 15 pin D type connector at the KVM end. At the server end there is a standard 15 pin D typ...
Self-adhering gasket for industrial connectors from Harting
A new self-adhering gasket has been added to the HARTING Han range of industrial connectors. The new gasket allows the seal to be attached directly to the housing, which makes installation easier. In addition, the screws are securely held onto the housing and seal, minimising the chance of them being lost.
Linear battery chargers from TI maximize AC adapter and USB input power
Texas Instruments has introduced four 28-V, 1.5-A linear charge management ICs with integrated FETs aimed at smart phones and other portable electronics. The bq2407x family of lithium-ion (Li-Ion) battery chargers allows an end-equipment to be powered directly from an external power source, even if the unit’s battery pack is defective, fully discharged or absent.

36V 2.2MHz Buck LED Driver from Linear Technology
Linear Technology has announced the LT3592, a 36V step-down DC/DC converter designed to operate as a constant current LED driver. Its internal 36V, 900mA switch enables it to drive up to six 500mA white LED in a single string from a 36V input for industrial and LED signage applications. It can also drive two 500mA LEDs from a 12V lead acid battery input for automotive applications.
ON Semiconductor’s New Highly-Integrated Overvoltage Protection IC
ON Semiconductor has introduced the NUS6189, a device that integrates the performance and functions of an overvoltage protection (OVP) circuit, a 30 volt (V) P-channel power MOSFET, a low VCE(sat) transistor and a low Rds(on) power MOSFET into a space-saving 3.0 mm x 4.0 mm x 0.9 mm package. The NUS6189 is designed to protect sensitive electronic circuitry from overvoltage transients and power supply faults. It is optimized for applications that ...
Baying Kit for Rittal Enclosures
Rittal’s AE wall boxes can now be installed as a suite with the introduction of the new AE Baying Kit. Available for AE enclosure sizes from 800mm high to 350mm deep, the new kit comes complete with screws and nuts for rapid assembly eliminating the need for thread-tapping, while ensuring the correct compression of the permanent seal. A self adhesive universal seal is also supplied, along with bayable sealing elements and corner pieces allow...
Low power external AC/DC power supplies meet CEC and EISA energy efficiency standards
XP Power today announced the availability of the AEB series of energy efficient external AC/DC power supplies aimed at desktop and portable applications.
