National Instruments has announced its first PXI source measure unit (SMU) and the industry’s highest-density PXI switches. These products further enhance the PXI platform for use in precision DC applications, such as semiconductor parametric tests and electronic device and component validation. Engineers can use these modules together to precisely characterise voltage and current parameters on high pin-count devices, with the advantages of sma...

Adding to its industry-leading power portfolio, Faqirchild has introduced the first in a new family of high-frequency optically isolated MOSFET gate drivers capable of driving up to 30A / 1200V in industrial applications. Exhibiting a 200ns (max) rise/fall time rate, the FOD3180 (2A) and FOD3181 (0.5A) quickly turn the power MOSFET on and off to limit power dissipation.

Power engineers designing motor and industrial applications such as motor drive inverters, distributed power supplies and telecom system power supplies, need a high voltage gate driver solution that provides improved noise immunity and increased performance, while being pin-compatible to solutions currently available.

Renesas Technology Europe has announced the 72-Mbit Quad Data Rate II+ (QDR II+) and Double Data Rate II+ (DDRII+) high-speed SRAM product family for use in high-end routers and switches in next-generation communication networks. These SRAM products achieve the industry's fastest operating speed and are compliant with the QDR Consortium industry standard. The new family also includes 72-Mbit QDRII and DDR II SRAM devices. The full range of device...

The microchip (integrated circuit / IC) yesterday celebrated its 50th birthday. Fairchild Semiconductor’s Robert Noyce received the first patent for a commercially available silicon IC on the 25th of April 1961.

Toshiba Electronics Europe (TEE) has expanded its photocoupler portfolio with two new devices that offer ultra-low-profile board mounting in applications requiring isolated switching in accordance with international safety standards.

Toshiba Electronics Europe (TEE) introduit un MOSFET de semi-puissance 60 V dans sa gamme de MOSFET (S-MOS) petits signaux. Référencé SSM3K318T, ce nouveau transistor est adapté aux applications dotées d'un rétroéclairage à DEL (diode électroluminescente) dans lesquelles il faut booster la charge des batteries. Dans des terminaux portables, une application de commutation en mode commun peut être alimentée à partir d'une batterie avec ...

Toshiba Electronics Europe vient d'introduire deux circuits de contrôle hautement intégrés qui simplifieront de façon significative la mise en œuvre de la fonction de correction du facteur de puissance (power factor correction, ou PFC) qui est nécessaire afin de diminuer la distorsion harmonique des courants d'alimentation dans les applications opérant sous tension alternative (AC).

Toshiba Electronics Europe (TEE) has announced a new miniature photocoupler that combines transistor output with extended temperature operation and a high isolation voltage of 5000VACrms (min). Available in two DIP4 package options, the TLP781 is ideal for a variety of applications including switching power supplies, home appliances, solid state relays and office equipment. The device is also suitable for use in controller designs and for applic...
