Column-Driver IC for Large-Size LCD TV Market
STMicroelectronics has announced successful development of its first column-driver ICs for the growing large-size LCD TV market. Developed in the company’s Asia-Pacific Design Center (APDC) in Singapore, the STD8420C and STD8420A are the first chips in ST’s new LCD driver family, now being sampled to key customers, including Chunghwa Picture Tubes Ltd. (CPT), a leading display company based in Taiwan. Widely used in computer monitors, LCDs...
Sensorless Field-Oriented Motor-Control Solution for ARM Cortex Based Devices
STMicroelectronics has announced a complete three-phase motor-control development kit based on the STM32 Flash microcontroller – launched mid-2007 – which provides all the necessary hardware and firmware to enable users to evaluate this 32-bit solution, and to begin development of their own sensorless motor-control application. The STM32 uses the powerful ARM Cortex-M3 core, developed specifically to address the requirements of cost-sensitiv...
Silicon Carbide Schottky Diodes from STMicroelectronics
Ordinary silicon diodes used in switched-mode power supplies lose up to 1% efficiency by not turning off immediately, but STMicroelectronics claims to be among the first companies to introduce silicon carbide (SiC) diodes that save this energy normally lost during switching.
STM's SMPS converters for Intelligent and More Rugged Energy-Saving Power Supplies
STMicroelectronics has introduced the VIPerPlus family of off-line SMPS (switched-mode power supply) converters. Following the successful introduction of the first device, VIPer17, in 2008, ST has added the VIPer15/16/25/27/28 devices to form a broad family of AC-DC converters that minimize both standby power consumption and the number of external components required, while enabling easy compliance with Blue Angel, Energy Star and other low-power...

TI’s new off-line green mode pulse width modulation controller improves efficiency and space in power supply applications
Texas Instruments today introduced an off-line green mode pulse width modulation (PWM) controller that minimizes space and system cost while providing high efficiency in power supply applications. The UCC28610’s frequency and peak current modulation creates efficiency levels of 85 percent at full load and high efficiency over the entire load range.
Dual-mode DisplayPort switches and HDMI/DVI level translators from TI
Texas Instruments has introduced three compact DisplayPort devices that provide connectivity between personal computers and video displays. The low-power devices support data signaling rates up to 2.7 Gbps to accommodate DisplayPort and high-definition multimedia interface (HDMI) speeds, commonly used to link desktop and notebook PCs and docking stations to DLP projectors, computer monitors and digital TVs.
