Now available from DT Electronics, OKI’s mechanical multi-channel optical switches incorporate micro-optics technology to achieve a maximum of 1.5dB insertion loss, thus eliminating the need for an optical amplifier.

Powersolve has announced a DC/DC converter that provides very high power density levels – 30W from a 51 x 25mm (2 x 1in) industry standard pin-out package. With efficiencies as high as 88%, the new converters feature a low 5mA input current in standby mode and a wide operating temperature range of –25 to +71°C.

Aldec, Inc. has announced the addition of Expression Coverage for Verilog in the release of Riviera 2006.06. This addition significantly improves efficiency of the verification process and enables delivery of higher quality, more reliable designs.

National Instruments has announced the NI PXI-5105 eight-channel digitiser, the lowest price-per-channel high-speed data acquisition product in its class, which offers a cost-effective alternative to systems that use multiplexed A/D converters or switches to increase channel count.

Renesas’ SH-MobileL3V application processor is designed specifically for use in terrestrial digital broadcast capable mobile phones. The device enables smooth video display and recording - equivalent to that of a standard TV - and it facilitates the extraction of TV broadcast data and conversion to a JPEG image without loss of image quality. It also enables lower power consumption, and importantly, it provides the ability to customise mobil...

LEM has introduced a series of dual-range, automotive-qualified sensors for accurate, wide-range current measurements in vehicle battery monitoring applications. The 25 models in the DHAB range are said to be the first in the industry to offer non-intrusive, galvanically-isolated solutions in this application.

Silicon Laboratories has announced a single-phase point of load (POL) reference design enabling engineers to easily and quickly implement digitally-controlled POLs for many end applications including servers, telecom, datacomm and storage systems, medical equipment and aeronautical systems.

TAIYO YUDEN has announced the NR6012 series of low-profile 6 x 6mm power inductors for DC/DC converter choke coil applications in the LCD panels of notebook PCs. The 11 models in the NR6012 series offer a broad selection of low DC resistance (0.092-2.18 Ohms) and high inductance ratings (3-100µH), as well as the industry’s highest current rating (1730mA) for the 6 x 6mm device form factor.

Now available from Aerco is a range of warm white LEDs from MARL that emit a colour temperature similar to an incandescent lamp allowing them to be used with filters to provide virtually any colour.

Displays and interconnect specialist GTK is expanding its 2go range with 2.54mm PCB pin headers, guaranteeing next-day product delivery, complete with technical drawings. The 2go range of low-cost connectors is destined to help OEMs who suffer from overly long lead-times by supplying cost-effective products with proven interconnect performance in record time.
