Diodes' LED driver reduces size and cost of lighting products
Diodes Incorporated has introduced a 1 Amp rated linear mode constant current LED driver specifically designed to reduce the size and cost of a range of general illumination products, including flashlights and lighting in emergency, garden, and poolside applications.
LED driver family from Diodes Inc cuts component overhead
Diodes has introduced a family of LED driver ICs capable of significantly reducing the number and size of external components required by drive circuits. The AP880X step-down dc-dc converters need the support of just four components and by operating at switching frequencies up to 600kHz, enable the use of smaller and lower cost inductors and capacitors.
ON Semiconductor Introduces Integrated Power Factor Controller
ON Semiconductor has introduced the NCP1901, an integrated circuit that combines both a power factor correction (PFC) controller and a resonant half-bridge controller in a single package. The high level of integration of the NCP1901 permits off-line adapters to be designed with minimal form factor while meeting worldwide efficiency standards, such as ENERGY STAR v2.0 for external power supplies, California Energy Commission (CEC), European Code o...
Semtech's Current Sense Amplifiers with Voltage Flexibility and Power Saving Features
Semtech announces a family of high-side current sense amplifiers with voltage flexibility and power saving features that allow mobile device designers to lower the system cost and power draw needed for battery sensing or data acquisition applications.
Semtech Expands Broad Platform of POL Regulators with Easy-to-Use, 4A Device
Semtech has expanded its point-of-load (POL) regulator platform to include a highly-integrated, 4A output current, synchronous buck regulator with programmable soft-start in a tiny 3 x 3 x 0.6mm package. The new SC185 joins Semtech’s existing platform of POL regulators, which includes a wide selection of output currents ranging from 0.5A to 4A.
Core-Voltage Controllers for Intel Centrino Duo Notebook PC Designs
Semtech has announced the SC452 and SC454 pulse-width-modulation power supply controllers for notebook computers that incorporate Intel Centrino Duo mobile technology.

Maxim - MAX9626-28: ADC drivers boost bandwidth by eliminating parasitics
Maxim introduced the MAX9626-MAX9628, low-noise, low-distortion, 1.35GHz differential amplifiers for driving high-speed pipeline ADCs. These devices integrate gain resistors, thereby eliminating the need for external feedback resistors. This reduces parasitics to enable higher bandwidths and improved THD performance while saving space and cost. The MAX9626-MAX9628 are ideal for driving 12- to 16-bit pipeline ADCs in communication, medical imagin...
Atmel Highly-Integrated Cortex-M3-based Flash MCUs Improve Impedance Matching and Lower Power Up to 50 Percent
Atmel Corporation today announced the SAM3S series. This series includes 18 general-purpose Cortex-M3 based Flash microcontrollers that simplify PCB design and save 50 percent power at 1MHz operation with a consumption of only 2.3mW. At maximum operating frequency of 64MHz the device consumes 1.45mW/MHz. Inspired by the market's best-selling ARM7TDMI-based SAM7S series, these MCUs enable SAM7S customers to migrate to a 50 percent more powerful an...
