ELMOS: motor driver with LIN/PWM interface and controller supply
With the E523.01, ELMOS presents an EC motor driver with all the functions required for the configuration of a complete, low-cost system. Apart from the high-performance bridge driver, for communication purposes the semiconductor features a LIN2.1 compatible interface as well as a PWM interface with data pre-processing. For an external microprocessor, optional 3.3 or 5.0V voltage supply (70mA), reset, and a configurable window watchdog are provid...
Some like it hot and cold
Especially the new PowerlinePLUS-Converters. They provide 20 to 50 watts and have been designed for applications with a temperature range of -55°C and 100°C. Converters with theses specifications are focussed to railway applications, aerospace, traffic controls, wind energy and semi military environments. They are however also ideal for industrial applications, in which heat generation has to be reduced.
Freescale Semiconductor and Fuji Electric partner to increase efficiency of hybrid electric vehicles
Freescale Semiconductor has entered into a strategic alliance with Fuji Electric Co., Ltd. to collaborate on insulated-gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) technology and products for hybrid electric and electric vehicles (HEV and EV). Working with Fuji Electric, Freescale will add high-power IGBT products to its existing portfolio of solutions for electronic powertrain applications, market those products to its automotive customers and define and prod...
austriamicrosystems' new smart LED driver produces sophisticated light effects while dramatically conserving system power
A new smart LED driver IC, the AS3668 introduced by austriamicrosystems (SIX: AMS), a leading global designer and manufacturer of high performance analog ICs, controls up to four LEDs to produce sophisticated indicator lighting effects in mobile phones and tablets without requiring the intervention of the power-hungry baseband processor.

Integrating Instrumentation Monitoring Increases Process Efficiency and Membrane Life in Reverse Osmosis Processes
Scaling, fouling and oxidation are the natural enemies of reverse osmosis (RO) systems in water processing units—especially in the food and pharmaceutical industries. Proper process monitoring and control of critical parameters, such as pH, ORP, conductivity, flow, temperature and differential pressure can provide advanced warning and protection of a scaling, fouling or chemically attacked RO element. If these early warnings are ignored, the me...
SynQor expands its Industrial InQor Portfolio
SynQor has announced the release of several new DC/DC converters in its InQor product line targeting RF Power Amplifier applications. The IQ24280HEC14 and IQ24280HZC18 offer a nominal 28V output at 400W and 500W respectively, while the IQ24500HEC08 and IQ24500HZC10 offer a nominal 50V output at the same power levels. All devices utilise the industry standard Half Brick pin-out, and are completely encapsulated in a package measuring just 2.49” x...
