Low-Profile, High-Current Inductors from Vishay
Vishay has announced a low-profile, high-current inductor in the 2020 case size. The compact IHLP-2020BZ-01 offers a 5.18-mm by 5.49-mm footprint and ultra-low 2.0-mm profile, with a high maximum frequency and standard inductance values from 0.1μH through 10μH.
Surface-Mount Power Metal Strip Resistor from Vishay
Vishay has announced a high-precision Bulk Metal surface-mount Power Metal Strip resistor that features an improved load-life stability of ±0.05% at +70°C for 2000 hours at rated power, an absolute TCR of ±15PPM/°C from -55°C to +125°C, +25°C Ref., and a tolerance of ±0.1%.
Thick Film Power Resistor from Vishay
Vishay Intertechnology has released a new 35-W thick film power resistor featuring a compact, easy-to-mount TO-263 package (D2PAK) and a broad range of resistance values.
Solenoids from Aerco the key to small locking applications
Aerco is now holding stocks of two new, miniature, open framed push or pull solenoids from Dialight BLP that are ideal for applications where high force is not required but compactness is essential. The overall frame size of the Series 133 and Series 134 allows them to be easily concealed in locking mechanisms where discretion is the keyword.
Finder launches call and reset relays for remote alarm call systems
Finder has announced the 13.12 Call and Reset Relay, which is designed to activate an alarm at a remote point and provide local indication of activation. The relay will be of particular interest to designers and installers of attendant call systems in hospitals and care homes, and to contractors involved in the provision of facilities into residential and commercial buildings where occupants may need to call for assistance.
ON Semiconductor Expands ESD Protection Portfolio
ON Semiconductor has announced the expansion of its high performance off-chip ESD protection portfolio with the introduction of two best-in-class devices - the ESD7L5.0D and the NUP4212. These new products have been designed using ON Semiconductor’s propriety integrated ESD protection platform, which enhances clamping performance while maintaining low capacitance and small die size.
Fused tantalum capacitors from AVX protects against short circuits
AVX’s new TAW series fused tantalum capacitors protect against damaging high DC leakage currents at high currents. Short circuit failure mode protection is accomplished using an internal fuse connected in series with the capacitor. More, as the fuse is fabricated using thin film technology, these components are very reliable, ultra-fast and the lowest ESR commercially available fused tantalum capacitors currently available.
Multi-Way Rotary Switch from Lorlin
Lorlin Electronics, continues to diversify into new design opportunities for rotary switches. The range of PT multi-deck, multi-pole rotary switches is now available with an O-ring seal and waterproof grease sealant between the shaft and brush providing a dust and splash proof seal between the switch and mounting panel.
Surface mount capacitors for LCDs from Syfer
Aimed directly at the LCD inverter market, Syfer Technology has developed a range of surface mount multilayer ceramic capacitors, offering reduced susceptibility to surface arcing. The improved properties have been made possible through the utilization of a unique C0G/NP0 dielectric material.
Multilayer Varistors from AVX
AVX Corporation has expanded its AntennaGuard Series of low capacitance multilayer varistors (MLVs) to include a sub 1pf version. Designed to provide a one chip solution for protecting high speed digital interfaces, RF antenna and RF amplifier circuits against ESD events, the application specific, bi-directional transient voltage suppressor provides minimal signal distortion and low insertion loss. The low profile 0402 MLV features a fast respon...
