Ceramic resonators target contactless payment technology
To meet the fast growing and high potential demand in the converging consumer/communications/IT sector, Murata has announced a number of innovative extensions to its CSTCE range of Ceralock ceramic resonators. Designed to operate as clock oscillators or timing control circuits for microprocessor based equipment, ceramic oscillators are increasingly replacing quartz crystal devices due to their smaller size and built in load capacitance. Operati...
Capacitors feature low equivalent series inductance for high clock speeds
Murata has announced a number of recent additions to its LLL, LLA, LLM and LLK series of low ESL capacitors, extending the capacitance ranges, over standard and extra low profile versions, while keeping ESL especially low. The LLL range, for example, with ESL quoted at 150 to 250pH, and targeting microprocessor clock speeds from 120 to 800MHz, has been extended with a number of X7S dielectric parts with capacitance ranges now up to 0.68µF (low ...

Solid State Supplies adds low power microcontroller line Energy Micro to its linecard
Solid State Supplies has signed a distribution agreement with Energy Micro, supplier of the world's lowest power microcontrollers. Solid State Supplies will distribute Energy Micro's EFM32 microcontrollers in the UK from September 1st. The EFM32 is the first 32-bit ARM Cortex-M3 product that addresses the low power mixed-signal microcontroller market and is ideal for ultra-low power and battery operated applications.
Energy harvesting modules from Solid State Supplies
Designed for low power intermittent duty and long storage time applications, the new EH300/EH301 series Epad based energy harvesting modules from Solid State Supplies can collect energy from many types of secondary or waste by-product environmental sources, such as thermal, mechanical, chemical, solar, biological and human body sources to power conventional 3.3V and 5.0V electrical circuits and systems.
Ethernet controller from Nu Horizons minimises packet loss
Nu Horizons Electronics has announced availability of the LAN9218i from SMSC. This single-chip 10/100 Ethernet controller is designed for high performance embedded applications. Packet loss is reduced or eliminated through the use of 16KByte of internal SRAM that can hold over 200 received packets. If the receive FIFO gets too full, the device automatically generates flow control packets to the remote node, or asserts back-pressure on the remote ...
