LEM has introduced the LA 306-S, a panel-mounted current transducer for the measurement of currents up to 400 ARMS (@ +70°C) or 300 ARMS (@ +85°C). The unit offers the high performance of a closed-loop current transducer at a very competitive price.

PULS, the global technology leader in DIN-rail power supplies, announces the latest addition to its premium range of DIN-Rail power supplies. The Dimension Q-Series now includes the QS10.241 wide input range, 24VDC, 10A output power supply requiring only 60mm of mounting space.

Texas Instruments Incorporated introduced today a highly integrated boost converter that supports 27-V of output voltage and improves battery life in portable industrial and medical applications, such as portable diagnostic systems.

Microchip announces the MCP3909 energy-measurement IC and reference design. The new IC combines low power consumption with an SPI interface and active power pulse output. As a part of the MCP3909 3-Phase Energy Meter Reference Design, the new IC enables designers to rapidly develop new meter designs.

Linear Technology has introduced the LTC2914, a precision quad input voltage monitor with four separate undervoltage (UV) and overvoltage (OV) inputs, designed for systems with multiple supplies. The IC offers a versatile and precise solution for voltage monitoring by giving the user the flexibility to configure specific UV and OV trip thresholds, while also guaranteeing ±1.5% threshold accuracy of the monitored voltages over temperature. A buff...

While many “stock items” disappear from warehouse shelves, Solid State Supplies are increasing their stock of the more popular International Rectifier ruggedized hybrid DC-DC converters previously built by M-3 and Advanced Analog.

Fairchild Semiconductor’s new FDB2614 (200V) and FDB2710 (250V) N-channel MOSFETs are designed specifically to provide industry-leading system efficiency and space optimization in plasma display panel (PDP) applications.

Now available from RF and microwave component specialist Link Microtek is a family of MMIC components manufactured by Hittite Microwave Corporation and supplied in LH5 leadless hermetic SMT packages, making them ideal for use in high-reliability applications in the space, industrial and military sectors.

Linear Technology has introduced the LTC3835, a very low quiescent current step-down DC/DC synchronous controller. The LTC3835 draws only 80uA in sleep mode, making it ideal for preserving battery energy in applications such as automotive navigation or battery-powered monitoring devices where the system remains semi-active when the engine or the power is off.

Catalyst Semiconductor, Inc. has introduced its CAT3643 three-channel and CAT3644 four-channel Quad-Mode charge pumps. The CAT3643 Quad-Mode charge pump is said to be the world’s smallest, highest efficiency charge pump, delivering 10 percent higher efficiency compared to three-mode charge pumps, in a 2.5mm x 2.5mm XQFN package with a 0.4mm profile. The CAT3643 drives up to three LEDs and comes just two months after Catalyst’s launch of its...
