NI Announces PXI Embedded Controller and New PXI System Accessories
National Instruments has announced the NI PXI-8108, what it says is the industry’s fastest PXI embedded controller, and two new PXI system accessories, a 32 GB solid-state hard drive and the NI PXI-8250 system monitoring module. These new products provide increased system performance and reliability to help engineers and scientists achieve faster process execution, lower test times and longer system life.
Converter Supports up to 5 LEDs for Main Display and 2 LEDs for Sub-Displays
Texas Instruments has introduced a high-efficiency, constant-frequency charge pump DC/DC converter that uses dual-mode conversion to maximize efficiency over the input voltage range. The tiny 3 mm x 3 mm device provides a fully programmable current with I2C interface for applications, such as cellular phones, PDAs and multi-display handheld devices.
Tiny Linear LED Driver for Portable Electronics from Texas Instruments
Texas Instruments has introduced what it says is the smalles the smallest two-bank, low dropout (LDO) regulator to support light emitting diode (LED) lighting in portable applications, such as mobile phones, navigation systems, MP3 and media players. The device enables quality color backlighting from a tiny 1.2 mm x 1.2 mm package, allowing end-users to experience blinking and dimming of color keypads and navigation pad lights.
C2000 Peripheral Explorer Kit and Free Teaching ROM give developers a head start in learning and launching real-time control applications
Giving students and new real-time control developers an easy-to-use, cost-efficient foundation for jumpstarting designs, Texas Instruments announced its enhanced floating-point F28335 Delfino™ microcontroller (MCU) Peripheral Explorer Kit and free C2000 MCU Teaching ROM.
STMicroelectronics Begins Shipping STM32F4 Fast-Track Design Tool
Following the successful launch of its advanced STM32F4 ARM Cortex M4 microcontroller family, STMicroelectronics has begun shipping the STM32F4Discovery Kit to appointed distributors worldwide. The kit provides an ultra low-cost development environment enabling fast, convenient design starts using the new devices.
LEDs: Optimised light extraction through lens-like casting
Sharp is supplementing its LED lighting portfolio with three new white 'high colour rendering', high-performance LEDs. The 'DoubleDome' LEDs from Sharp already provide suitable light for energy-efficient lighting without secondary optics.
High intensity LEDs, which retain a high level of light quality
Sharp's 15 and 25 W LED modules from the new Mega Zeni series radiate with an effi-ciency of up to 102 lm/W, a luminous flux of up to 2550 lm and are available with a CRI value of up to 83 (typical), respectively.

Spelsberg IP66 TK enclosures specified by Watersavers
UK company Watersavers is using IP66 TK enclosures from Spelsberg to house the controls for the company’s new SOV-100 automatic water shut off system. The system has been designed with BREEAM guidelines in mind and can save thousands of pounds every year in reduced water wastage. The Spelsberg enclosures satisfied a long list of requirements, from transparent lids in order to view status LEDs through to PCB mounts, extra wiring space and an...
LED Driver is designed for solar applications
PREMA Semiconductor GmbH has extended its family of LED drivers by adding a boost driver for solar applications. The new PR4403 drives and controls white LEDs out of one single battery charged by solar cells. It uses the connected solar cells to detect daylight.
