New Yorker Electronics is now distributing ASC Capacitors' new MEC-DL film capacitors, designed for PCB board mounting. These are said to be ideal for frequency converters, micro inverters and DC filtering applications. Their lead spacing and compact size are conducive for low inductance (<1nH per mm of lead spacing).

Global circuit protection company, Littelfuse, has introduced a series of Schottky Barrier Rectifiers designed to outperform conventional switching diodes in commercial, industrial and automotive applications. DST Series Schottky Barrier Rectifiers combine ultra-low forward voltage drop, high current handling, high junction temperature capability, and low leakage performance in a compact TO-277B surface mount package.

Ten new 1A and 2A devices have expanded Vishay Intertechnology’s offering of surface-mount TMBS Trench MOS Barrier Schottky rectifiers in the eSMP series MicroSMP (DO-219AD) package. Providing space-saving alternatives to Schottky rectifiers in the SOD123W, the Vishay General Semiconductor devices feature reverse voltages from 45V to 150V and include 2A TMBS rectifiers in the MicroSMP that deliver forward voltage as low as 0.40V.

The 16A silicon-controlled rectifier (SCR) switching thyristor series from Littelfuse is optimised for electric vehicle on-board charge (EVOBC) applications. The devices are claimed to offer "excellent" AC handling capability and surge robustness for input rectifiers.

Global circuit protection company, Littelfuse, has introduced a series of 40A standard high-temperature silicon-controlled rectifier (SCR) thyristors that are suitable for use as switches for rectifier and phase control applications such as voltage regulator, heating and motor speed controls. The new SJxx40x series is the first SCR thyristor from Littelfuse capable of handling 600V, 40Arms and junction temperatures up to 150°C.

Industrial power solutions manufacturer, Powerstax, hasbeen awarded ISO 9001 on its recently combined manufacturing facility in Wickford, Essex.The long term home to the ‘Drake’ brand of power conversion products now also houses production of the Powerstax range of high efficiency DC/DC converters and front-ends and value-added system assembly. After due process the complete facility is now ISO 9001 approved.

The award-winning BMR458 third-generation 3E quarter-brick advanced bus converter from Ericsson Power Modules has been upgraded to integrate burst-mode operation, which enables the module to handle 1079W of peak power for a brief period of time, up to a maximum of one second.

Power semiconductors and integrated circuits manufacturer for energy efficiency, power management, and motor control applications, IXYS Corporation have announced the availability of a new design: 3kW Two-Phase Digital Power Factor Corrector (PFC). It is based on Zilog’s 8-bit Z8F6481 microcontroller, a member of the Z8 Encore XP F6482 series of microcontrollers, and IXYS power transistors and rectifiers.

Resistors, capacitors and diodes to help design engineers optimise their end products and address key design challenges such as scale, performance and cost have been added to the Farnell element14 portfolio. They represent the Super 12 range which is released annually by Vishay and consists of six semiconductors and six passive components with advanced technology capabilities.

Two cable cars have been boosting the urban mobility in the French city of Brest, since November, which can carry up to 60 people who travel more than 400m above the River Penfeld, with a power consumption that is potentially close to zero.Supported by Leroy-Somer, the companies Bartholet France and Seirel are behind this achievement which is a world first in terms of technology.
