DIOFETs raise efficiency and increase reliability of PoL converters
Diodes Incorporated has introduced the first products from its proprietary DIOFET process that monolithically integrates a power MOSFET and anti-parallel Schottky diode into a single die. Used in the low side MOSFET position of synchronous buck point-of-load (PoL) converters, the DMS3014SSS and DMS3015SSS improve the efficiency and lower the operating temperature of fast switching PoL converters in high volume computing, telecom and industrial a...
Linear constant current driver from Diodes Incorporated provides versatile control for LED applications
The AL8400 linear LED driver controller from Diodes Incorporated has been designed to tightly regulate a wide variation of high brightness LED currents via an external transistor. Suiting a broad range of LED chains in illumination, indication or signage systems, the controller can directly operate from 2.2V to 18V and will drive either N-channel MOSFET or NPN Bipolar transistors.
Ultra-miniature MOSFETs from Diodes Incorporated deliver cooler running than larger packaged devices
Diodes Incorporated has unveiled a portfolio of high performance MOSFETs packaged in the ultra-miniature DFN1006-3 package. Occupying just 0.6mm2 of PCB area, the package takes less than half the board space of equivalent SOT723 packaged parts and with a junction to ambient thermal resistance (Rthj-a) of 256 ºC/W, supports a power dissipation of up to 1.3W under continuous conditions, double that of comparable alternatives.
DFN3020 packaged MOSFETs take 70% less space
Diodes has introduced the first MOSFETs in a new range of space-saving DFN3020 packaged discrete products. Three dual MOSFET combinations have been released, comprising 20V and 30V N-channel and 30V complementary devices. While offering a comparable electrical performance as much larger SOT23 packaged parts, these dual DFN3020 MOSFETs will replace two separate SOT23 packaged MOSFETs, resulting in a board space saving of 70%.
40V gate driver from Diodes Incorporated reduces IGBT switching losses
Designed specifically for switching high power IGBTs, the ZXGD3006E6 gate driver from Diodes Incorporated helps to increase power conversion efficiency in solar inverter, motor drive and power supply applications.
MOSFET Controller from Diodes Incorporated Increases PSU Efficiency for Energy Star Rating
Diodes Incorporated announces a 25V rated synchronous MOSFET controller for notebook and laptop power supply designs of 90W and above. By enabling the replacement of inefficient Schottky diodes in flyback converters, the ZXGD3104N8 increases power supply efficiency by up to 3.5% through a reduction in rectifier losses of up to 70%. As a result, the device helps power supplies more easily attain the 87% Energy Star V2.0 rating.
L-C Protection Devices for Color LCDs in 3G Handsets
Semtech Corp has announced the EClamp239xP, the newest addition to Semtech’s EMIClampTM protection portfolio.

The EClamp239xP series includes the four-line EClamp2394P, the six-line EClamp2396P and the ...
RGB laser driver squeezes embedded pico projectors into a new class of consumer electronics
Maxim has introduced the MAX3600, a 3-channel RGB laser driver that enables the integration of high-resolution pico projectors into small-form-factor applications. Fabricated using Maxim's newest BiCMOS process, this device achieves very fast switching times of < 2ns to support high-resolution images up to 1080p (1920 x 1080 pixels) and WXGA (1400 x 768 pixels). Additionally, it eliminates the need for three discrete laser drivers, thus enabling ...
CMOS AM/FM LNA integrates adjustable gain control for active car antenna applications
Maxim's new LNA, the MAX2180, integrates an AGC circuit to optimize car antenna reception while reducing solution size and cost.
Synchronous DC-DC Controller from Maxim
Maxim introduced the MAX15023, a low-cost, dual-output, synchronous step-down controller capable of driving external MOSFETs to deliver at least 12A per output. Operating over a wide, 4.5V to 28V input range, this device integrates a ±1% accurate voltage reference to provide an accurate output voltage from 0.6V to 85% of the input voltage.
