Powering passive optical LANs
Copper cabling is being replaced by fibre optic-based systems to keep up with networking demands, says Kevin Borders, Alpha Technologies, a member company of the Association for Passive Optical LAN
Nano-pulse is a driver for DC/DC design
An automotive primary buck DC/DC converter uses a patented technology, reveals David James, Rohm Semiconductor
How high-voltage isolation technology works
This video is part of a series of videos on high-voltage reinforced isolation quality and reliability from Texas Instruments. The video is on the high-voltage isolation structure itself. Reinforced isolation technology at Texas Instruments is realised by using thick silicon dioxide capacitors combined in series. Each channel uses high-voltage isolation capacitors on both die.
Automotive design steps up EMI standards
Automotive and industrial design demands compact power supplies that meet low EMI standards, says Joey Yurgelon, Jesus Rosales, and Mark Marosek, Analog Devices
MOSFET driver enables high current conversion with adjustable deadtime
Supplier of advanced semiconductor solutions, Renesas Electronics, has announced a new family of automotive-grade 100V, four amp half-bridge N-channel MOSFET drivers. The ISL784x4 family features three devices: the ISL78424 and ISL78444 with single tri-level PWM input for controlling both gate drivers, and the ISL78434, which has dual independent inputs that separately control the high-side and low-side drivers.
Hall-effect current sensors offer enhanced performance and diagnostics
Global microelectronics engineering company, Melexis, has announced two new current sense ICs based upon their 20 years of experience in Hall-effect technology. Both of the new sensors share the same high-performance CMOS core and the MLX91217 implements conventional Hall technology, while the MLX91216 uses Melexis’ proprietary Integrated Magneto Concentrator (IMC).
Clearly identifiable self-powered smart switches
Developer of energy harvesting technology, EnOcean, is introducing the new ‘Battery-free by EnOcean’ seal. The seal will highlight maintenance-free and flexible switch solutions that do not require batteries or wires. Product manufacturers can use the seal to promote their battery-free, wireless switches integrating EnOcean’s energy harvesting technology for leading wireless standards in the sub-1 and 2.4GHz range.
electronica 2018: Safety drives with you
The Japanese technology company, Asahi Kasei will present its technologies and solutions in the areas of sensor technology and premium audio at this year's electronica. For the first time at a European trade fair, the electric concept vehicle 'AKXY' will also be present at the booth.
Medical DC/DC converters provide two MOPP
New medical-grade DC/DC modules in a power range from 15W to 30W, which can be easily integrated in medical designs due to their compact case size and full medical certifications, have been introduced by RECOM. The enhanced properties make these modules suited for medical-grade applications as they are strong in reinforced isolation of 5kVAC, and low leakage current, while offering wide 4:1 input voltage ranges.
High performance silicon carbide FETs series expanded
UnitedSiC has announced its expanded its UF3C FAST Series product offering by introducing an additional range of 650 and 1,200V high performance silicon carbide FETs in a TO-247-4L 4-pin Kelvin Sense package option. Based on an efficient cascode configuration, this new series provides designers with very fast switching, high power devices in a package capable of high power dissipation.
