Linear Technology has announced the LTC3526, a 1MHz, current mode, synchronous boost DC/DC converter with output disconnect and integrated soft-start capability. Its internal 500mA switches can deliver output voltages as high as 5V from an input voltage range of 0.85V to 4.4V, making it ideal for Li-Ion/Polymer or single/multicell alkaline/NiMH applications. The LTC3526 can deliver up to 100mA of continuous output current (at 3.3V) from a single ...

Yuasa Battery has published two new updated technical brochures covering the company’s wide range of NiMH and NiCd cylindrical cells.

Schroff has introduced a new family of subracks specifically designed for applications based on the emerging MicroTCA specification. As well as incorporating full RFI shielding, the subracks are equipped with a MicroTCA backplane providing eight full-size AdvancedMC slots, four compact AdvancedMC slots, two MCH slots and two power-module slots. Available in 3U height for single AdvancedMC modules or 4U for double AdvancedMC modules, the subrac...

STMicroelectronics has introduced the Xpander Logic family to help customers overcome the limited number of I/O ports in microcontroller and microprocessor-based embedded systems. Any existing or additional I/O-intensive tasks on the central processing unit (CPU) can be now reassigned to the Xpander Logic IC that operates off ultra-low power and comes in a very small package, making it ideal for portable multimedia devices such as mobile phones,...

Vicor has introduced a high power (>1100 W/in3) 320W PRM non-isolated regulator. Designated P045F048T32AL, this latest V•I Chip component is designed for high-performance 48V power applications such as servers, telecom and ATE. It provides a controlled Factorized Bus distribution voltage for powering downstream VTM current multipliers, creating fast, efficient, isolated, low-noise Point-of-Load (POL) converters. With an efficiency of 97% and m...

Omnetics, the leading USA manufacturer of miniature high rel connectors has launched a single row version of its Nano-Miniature Bi-lobe 0.635mm pitch connector family, designed to deliver ultra-reliable signal contact direct from the PCB into the connector. With a profile of only 2.92mm high, these connectors incorporate Omnetics’ proven Nano Flex Pin contact and are the lowest profile metal-shelled connector available on the market.

Ramtron has launched what it says is the first 4-megabit (Mb) FRAM memory – the highest-density FRAM product, with quadruple the FRAM memory capacity available to date. The FM22L16 is a 4Mb, 3-volt, parallel non-volatile RAM in a 44-pin thin small outline plastic (TSOP) package that features fast access, virtually unlimited read/write cycles and low power consumption. Pin-compatible with asynchronous static RAM (SRAM), the FM22L16 targets indu...

METcase has launched the new ‘DATAMET’ range of aluminium wall cases. These stylish and robust enclosures have been designed for indoor wall mounted electronics. Typical applications will include control units, measurement systems, medical equipment, safety and security systems, communication devices, and machine controllers.

The ATS2-PERF performance option for Audio Precision's successful ATS-2 professional audio analyser is now available in the UK exclusively from TTi (Thurlby Thandar Instruments). The new option provides higher-bandwidth convertors for superior analysis capability (up to 120 kHz), and adds digital interface (bitstream) analysis features.

Now available from TTI Europe, the world’s leading authorized specialist distributor of passive, connector and electromechanical components, is a new series of four low-profile, high-current inductors from Vishay, delivering high maximum frequencies and low inductance values.
