Toshiba Electronics Europe has expanded its family of miniature photocouplers with a new extended temperature device suitable for applications including switching power supplies, programmable controllers and AC/DC input modules.

NEC Electronics Europe has announced the availability of Applilet2 device configuration software. The Applilet2 software provides an easy to use graphical user interface to configure all of the features and peripherals available on all of NEC Electronics’ microcontrollers. This new free to down load software tool significantly reduces the development cycle for new products and applications.

Linear Technology has introduced the LTC2755-16, a quad 16-bit current output digital-to-analog converter (DAC) with six software-programmable output ranges. The LTC2755-16 guarantees 16-bit linearity (±1LSB (max) INL and DNL) over the industrial temperature range without any adjustment. Each DAC output can be individually programmed through a parallel interface or can be pin-strapped for operation within a single range. A current output DAC all...

As chips add new functionality and system designs evolve away from boards and toward multi-chip system-on-chip (SoC) architectures, developers of handheld and consumer electronics are faced with stricter pin and package constraints. Texas Instruments, a key member of the IEEE working group, announced that it is driving the ratification of the IEEE 1149.7 standard, a new two-pin test and debug interface standard that supports half the number of pi...

Texas Instruments has introduced an evaluation module (EVM) that combines TI’s fastest 14-bit analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) in an interleaved fashion with a Xilinx Virtex-5 FPGA to create the best-performing high-speed digitizer solution in the market. The FPGA comes pre-installed with SP Devices’ proprietary time-interleaving technology to eliminate interleaving spurs, which enhances performance and facilitates rapid system-lev...

Torex Semiconductor has introduced the XC25BS8 Series of PLL clock generator ICs with built-in crystal oscillator circuit, divider circuit and multiplier PLL circuit. Suitable for low voltage and battery-powered applications of between 2.5V and 5.5V, the devices can generate a high frequency output from an input as low as 8kHz by multiplying the input up to 4095 times.

NEC Electronics Europe announces that its latest measurements of just 0.52mA/MIPS at 20MHz confirm its industry-leading position in low power consumption, significantly enhancing existing products and setting new standards against leading competition in this as well as lower speed and low power operating modes. In addition, the dedicated real-time clock function requires just 1.0uA of standby current. There is also no sacrifice in performance, of...

Artisan Software Tools has launched version 7.0 of Artisan Studio, its flagship model-driven development tool suite. Artisan Studio provides complete support for UML, OMG SysMLTM, and Architectural Frameworks in a single, integrated environment.

Display Technology has announced two new TFT displays from CMO, both are 19” in size and are from the R190xx family. The displays could benefit customers in many industries including Gaming, Instrumentation, Digital Signage, Retail, industrial, Kiosk, Ruggedized monitors to name but a few.

Now available in the UK from Aerco are Hypertac’s new HBB connectors that are rated up to 750A for use in high power applications. Providing easy mating and quick release with over 2,000 mating cycles and combining high current handling capability with small size and high levels of environmental performance, the HBB range is particularly suitable for electric drives used in fighting vehicles, weapons, avionics, rail transport and automotive an...
