Rugged Mains Voltage Lock Switch
Lorlin Electronics has announced the SRLM mains voltage lock switch. Manufactured in the UK the SRLM is a rugged, RoHS compliant key operated switch for applications where security and reliability are paramount.
1W high-power LEDs in really thin package
Avago Technologies has announced its first series of 1W, high-power LEDs in one of the thinnest packages available. This new LED is said to offer brighter illumination, more reliability than competing products and can be installed easily. Avago's ASMT-MX00 is ideal for use in applications that require ultra-high-brightness LEDs, such as flashlights, reading lamps, architectural and garden lighting.
Digital Signal Controllers for Intelligent Power Supply Applications
Microchip has announced a new family of 16-bit Digital Signal Controllers for switch-mode power supply designs and other power-conversion applications such as power inverters and Uninterruptible Power Supplies.
20A snap-action switch
Now available from Aerco is the S820, a newly designed, snap-action switch from Schaltbau that is said to have many advantages over its predecessor, the popular S800 series.
Miniature Encapsulated AC/DC Power Modules Suit a Wide Range of Applications
Powersolve announces TRACOPOWER’s TMT series of ultra-compact AC/DC power modules with approvals that make them suitable for a wide range of commercial, industrial and medical applications.
Current regulating diode drives current hungry LEDs
With the increasing current demands of todays current hungry LEDs SeMitec has introduced an 18mA current regulating diode to its range. The E-183 delivers a constant 18mA over a voltage range of 6 to 25V.
Low Cost 32-bit Digital Signal Controller
Texas Instruments has added four low cost members to the TMS320F280xx digital signal controller series targeted at motor control, digital power conversion and intelligent sensor control applications. The new TMS320F28015 and F28016 controllers offer 60MHz of performance starting as low as $3.25 (in 1Ku quantities) while the new TMS320F2801-60 and F2802-60 controllers also offer 60 MHz of performance and are based on the current TMS320F2801 and F2...
1200V/15A NPT-Trench IGBT can withstand as much as 300mJ
Fairchild Semiconductor has introduced a 1200V/15A NPT-Trench IGBT with the ability to withstand as much as 300mJ of avalanche energy in induction heating (IH) applications. This excellent avalanche capability helps ensure “rugged” fail-safe operation of the system during abnormal avalanche-mode conditions that commonly affect IH appliances such as microwave ovens
Double-layer capacitors achieve capacitance values up to 300 Farad
ACAL Components has introduced SuperCap double-layer capacitors which achieve capacitance values up to 300 Farad. Developed and manufactured by WIMA, SuperCaps can be used to replace, protect or support batteries whilst offering considerably higher discharge currents.
1W DC/DC Converters with 3-kV Isolation from TI
Texas Instruments has introduced a 1-W, unregulated DC/DC converter in a miniature package that features 3-kV isolation. The new DCH01 family of plug-in power modules operates from a 5-V input and provides single voltages of 5 V, 12 V, and 15 V and complementary dual-output voltages of ±5 V, ±12 V and ±15 V. The tiny modules are ideal for industrial applications such as data acquisition, motor control, programmable logic cont...
