92% efficient 480W DIN rail supplies offer high power density
TDK Corporation announces the introduction of the 480W rated DRB480-24-1 DIN rail mount AC-DC power supply with a power density of 0.36W/cm3. Featuring a narrow width, the DRB480 is ideally suited for enclosures and cabinets where space is at a premium. With an average efficiency of greater than 87%, the DRB480 meets ErP standards.
ELDCs offer low resistance and guaranteed long life
Panasonic has announced the extension of its HL seriesELDCs (Electric Double Layer Capacitors), which offer low resistance combined with guaranteed long life over a wide temperature range, from -40°C to +85°C.
Input protection for switched mode inverters and converters
These days, a typical specification for a power converter starts with a list of international standards that must be met for EMC and safety compliance. The requirements for functional performance are often many pages into the document.
Step-down silent switcher 2 delivers 94% efficiency at 2MHz
Analog Devices, which recently acquired Linear Technology, has announced the LT8645S, an 8A, 65V input capable synchronous step-down switching regulator. Its Silent Switcher 2 architecture uses two internal input capacitors as well as internal BST and INTVCC capacitors to minimise the area of the hot loops. Combined with controlled switching edges and internal construction with an integral ground plane and the use of copper pillars in lieu of bon...
Looking after variable speed drives reduces down-time
The legislation around the efficiency of electric motors is continuing to tighten, and therefore the volume of Variable Speed Drives (VSDs) in service increases.Often specified by the motor manufacturer as part of the original installation - or retrofitted to improve efficiency - the drive contains both hardware and software that is designed to work with a motor in a specific application. So, what happens if the drive ceases to operate?
Hybrid capacitors feature low ESR, high ripple current
Panasonic’s new EEH-ZE series (Type V-ZE) Hybrid Aluminium Electrolytic Capacitors are ultra-high-temperature capacitors that have an endurance of 2,000 hours at 145°C. The surface-mount conductive Polymer Hybrid components offer a nominal capacitance range of 33µF up to 330µF, at voltage ranges from 25VDC up to 63VDC, and feature an operating temperature range of -55°C up to 145°C, as well as low ESR and high ripple...
Low phase noise amps deliver high-dynamic range performance
Pasternack has released a new line oflow phase noise amplifiersthat incorporate GaAs HBT MMIC semiconductor technology to deliver ultra-low phase noise performance over a wide dynamic range. These amplifiers can be used to help optimise the sensitivity and dynamic range of higher performing test, radar and communication receiver designs where performance is dependent on how effectively the smallest and largest signal levels can be processed.
µModule buck regulator is CISPR 22 Class B compliant
Analog Devices, Inc., which recently acquired Linear Technology Corporation, announces the LTM8073, a µModulestep-down regulator with up to 60V input voltage range (65V abs max). The device can safely operate from unregulated or fluctuating 24 to 48V input supplies in noisy environments such as communication infrastructure, factory automation, industrial robotics and avionics systems.
Dielectric material facilitates high power ceramic capacitors
Ceramic capacitors with the new C48X Dielectric Material from Exxelia Technologies (ex-Eurofarad) are available at distributor New Yorker Electronics. These high-power capacitors have very low heat dissipation, making them well-suited for aircraft, defense and space. The brand new C48X material combines most of the advantages of NPO and X7R dielectrics, enabling the new high power and high frequency ceramic capacitor range to provide great stabil...
42V, 6A silent switcher delivers ultralow EMI/EMC emissions
Analog Devices, which recently acquired Linear, announces theLT8640S, a 6A, 42V input synchronous step-down switching regulator. Its unique Silent Switcher2 architecture uses two internal input capacitors as well as internal BST and INTVCCcapacitors to minimize the area of the hot loops. Combined with very well controlled switching edges and an internal construction with an integral ground plane and the use of copper pillars in lieu of bond wires...
