Vishay has announced three new high-precision CECC-qualified Bulk Metal Foil resistors for avionics, military, and space (AMS) applications. The devices feature a low TCR of ± 2 ppm/°C typical from - 55 °C to + 155 °C, + 20 °C ref., tolerances from ± 0.01 %, and a load-life stability of ± 0.005 % (50 ppm) at + 70 °C for 2000 hours at rated power.

Vishay has announced the release of two new four-and eight-channel LC EMI/ESD filter arrays with input loss of < 1 dB in ultra-compact LLP1713 and LLP3313 leadless packages. With a low profile of 0.6 mm, the new VEMI filter arrays are designed to save board space and provide EMI filtration and ESD protection for embedded cameras and LCDs in portable gaming systems, PDAs, mobile phones, and any other system designed to receive RF signals in the 80...

ON Semiconductor has introduced the NCP362 which is said to be the industry’s first overvoltage protection (OVP) device with both integrated current protection and high speed electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection for USB 2.0 applications in portable, telecom, consumer and computing systems.

Camden Electronics has signed a partnership agreement with Balluff, the leading manufacturer of electronic and electromechanical sensors that will see the Camden CE series of position limit and safety switches available via Balluff’s extensive field sales team.

Designed specifically with high current applications in mind, Ohmite’s new wirewound tubular lug resistor range, the E Series, is available with three durable coating options; lead-free vitreous enamel, silicone-ceramic and the patented, flameproof Centohm cement which is designed to withstand temperatures as high as 2000°C.

To assist customers in understanding the advantages of using Bulk Metal Foil resistors in their applications, Vishay has announced that it has added streaming video demonstrations to its Web site. Vishay Bulk Metal Foil resistors are designed and manufactured to eliminate the inter-parameter compromise inherent in all other types of precision resistors.

Vishay has announced its new “Panic Button” service, which provides prototypes of Bulk Metal Foil resistors in five working days or less. The new service allows designers to put together prototype systems faster than ever before and get them into production quickly, with full assurance that their resistor solutions are completely verified.

The CCF-UM is a Universal Modular Fuse (UMF) with fusing characteristics according to IEC standard 60127-4, with current ratings from 400 mA up to 6.3 A. Its voltage rating is equal for AC and DC at 125 V. The circuit protector provides a high breaking capacity of up to 63 A at 125 V, and provides superior anti surge characteristics. KOA’s long experience and original technology guarantees stable fusing characteristics.

Vishay Intertechnology has announced the release of two new wet tantalum capacitors that are the industry’s first such devices to be offered in a true surface-mountable molded package. The M34 and M35 wet tantalum electrolytic chip capacitors incorporate the advantages of all the varieties of electrolytic capacitors and eliminate most of the disadvantages. The devices have a higher ripple current capability than any other electrolytic type with...
