AVX Corporation has extended its TACmicrochip Series with what is reportedly the lowest-profile 3216-footprint tantalum capacitor currently available on the market. Measuring just 0.5mm high, the first new ‘I’ case capacitor (EIA Metric 3216-05) is rated for 10μF and 6.3V, but will be followed by future code releases to further extend the offering.

The extended Vishay Polytech T55 series of vPolyTan surface-mount polymer tantalum moulded chip capacitors are available at New Yorker Electronics. The new devices in the D case (EIA 7343-31) size features single-digit ESR values from 9mΩ down to 7mΩ, with values to 6mΩ in development.

Stackpole's HVC is a thick film high voltage chip resistor capable of handling up to 3KV continuous voltage. The HVC offers tolerances as low as 0.1% and TCR as low as 25ppm for suitable precision. In addition, the HVC resistance element provides high resistance values up to 50 Gigohms with very low noise and VCR down to 1ppm/volt.

Torex Semiconductor has launched the XBP141P as new series of TVS. The XBP141P is mounted adjacent to an external interface and protects an IC installed in a subsequent stage from static discharge. Since the pin capacitance is as small as 0.8pF, it is possible to be used on high speed signal lines and they are suitable for line protection of USB3.0 and other lines. Furthermore, four TVS diodes are in a compact DFN2510-10A (2.5 x 1.0 x h...

Global manufacturer of leading technologies in circuit protection, power control and sensing, Littelfuse, has announced an expanded PolySwitch setP series of digital temperature indicators, designed to protect USB Type C and USB power delivery charging cables from dangerous overheating. 

The T55 series of vPolyTan surface-mount polymer tantalum moulded chip capacitors from Vishay has been extended with devices in the D case (EIA 7343-31) size featuring single-digit ESR values from 9mΩ down to 7mΩ, with values to 6mΩ in development.

New Yorker Electronics is distributing the American Shizuki Capacitors (ASC) MEC-DL Low Profile DC Filter/Link Capacitor line of Film Capacitors. Designed primarily for PCB board mounting, they are ideal for frequency converters, micro inverters and DC filtering applications.

Supplier of advanced electronic components, AVX, is showcasing its extensive portfolio of high-frequency, high-performance passive components optimised for microwave and RF applications extending across the automotive, consumer, telecommunications, military, and aerospace market segments at this year’s International Microwave Symposium (IMS 2019), Boston, Massachusetts.

Automotive Grade Power Metal Plate current sense resistors featuring 2W and 3W power ratings in 2010- and 2512-sized packages have been announced by Vishay Intertechnology.

A 0.5W rated foil on ceramic current sense chip resistor offering low TCR and low resistance values has been introduced by Stackpole, with the CSRF0603-HP. The resistance value range has recently been expanded to include two milliohm values. The value range from two to four milliohms has TCR of 100ppm.
