STMicroelectronics has announced a very high-performance 24-bit audio DAC (digital-to-analog converter) that offers 103dB dynamic range across the entire audio path. Aimed at the mobile music market, the new STw5200 is available in small TFBGA and VFQFPN packages, and soon, in a tiny 2.6 x 2.6mm WLCSP. Simplifying the system design, the DAC can also be directly connected to the battery.

STMicroelectronics has introduced the first two devices in its new family of low-g linear accelerometers, distinguished by small form factor and low power consumption. The feature-rich LIS302 sensors meet the growing demand for smart functionality, such as hard-disk drive protection and motion-controlled operation, in today ’s mobile phones, digital audio players, and laptops.

STMicroelectronics has introduced an advanced high-frequency step-down dc-dc converter particularly suited for use in data-storage applications, such as hard disk drives, DVDs, Blu-ray Discs, High-Definition DVDs, and in portable devices, such as MP3 players and digital cameras, that require high efficiency, small size, and light weight. The new, cost-competitive ST1S06 integrates functions that benefit users with excellent electrical performan...

STMicroelectronics has introduced a new family of power MOSFETs combining higher voltage capability, greater ruggedness, and lower losses than previous devices, which are well suited for use in high-efficiency power supplies for products such as LCD monitors, televisions and energy-saving lamp ballasts.

STMicroelectronics has announced a performance breakthrough for silicon power MOSFETs by achieving the best on-resistance per die area with its latest MDmesh V technology. MDmesh V will enable a new generation of 650V MOSFETs with RDS(ON) reaching below 0.079 Ohm in compact power packages to deliver industry-leading efficiency and power density. These devices target power-conversion systems where small size and low energy consumption are major go...

STMicroelectronics has added intelligent power modules to its product range serving appliances and other low-power motor-drive applications to give customers a simple and compact solution for AC motor drive applications. The competitively priced modules integrate control functions, IGBT switches, and value-added features to enable smaller, more reliable, and lower-cost control units.

STMicroelectronics has announced the first silicon surge protectors meeting international surge-protection standard IEC61000-4-5, with a family of devices delivering high reliability and effective protection throughout the entire operating-temperature range.

STMicroelectronics has introduced a new family of high-efficiency power rectifiers that will help product manufacturers achieve energy-efficiency approvals, such as 80 PLUS. Saving energy has become a major selling point for power-supply and computer manufacturers. The 80 PLUS incentive program proposes to increase power supply efficiency, which helps reduce global carbon emissions by reducing wasted energy.

STMicroelectronics today introduced a general-purpose voltage comparator that consumes one third the current for the same response time, compared with currently available devices such as the LMV331. ST’s latest voltage comparator addresses the demand for greater power efficiency and longer battery life in today’s portable electronics applications, in keeping with the Company’s ongoing commitment to sustainability.
