Power Integrations Announces 150 W LED-Driver Design with 93% Efficiency, 30% Reduction in Component Count
Power Integrations today announced a reference design kit for a 150 W, 48 V power supply for LED streetlights and other industrial/infrastructure lighting systems. The driver circuit described in RDR-292 is more than 93% efficient at 230 VAC input and above 91% at 110 VAC. The design delivers a system power factor of greater than 0.97, THD of less than 10%, and easily meets EN61000-3-2 C. Designs can be scaled from 75 W to 400 W, using the same p...
Series 300/400 Power Monitors
LASER COMPONENTS’ Eigenlight power monitors measure light travelling through a fibre optic cable. Unlike conventional power meters they utilise a patented process to measure light in-line, allowing installation directly into systems for real-time continuous optical power measurement. Housed in a convenient lightweight plastic package, these power monitors are designed for versatility and ease of use.
PRUF LED Selects Juki’s JX-100LED and P MAX II for the Production of a Broad Spectrum of LED Lighting Panels
Juki Automation Systems announces that PRUF LED selected its JX-100LED and PMAX II to assist with the manufacture of a broad spectrum of LED lighting panels, including the only 4x2' panels produced in the United States. Both systems were installed at PRUF LED’s new cutting-edge, fully automated SMT production facility in Robinson, Texas.
NXP Enhances the Consumer Experience with New Tubular Fluorescent Lamp Drivers
NXP Semiconductors N.V. has announced the UBA2016A – the world’s first dimmable fluorescent lamp driver IC for High Frequency Tube Lamps (HF-TL) combining power factor correction (PFC) controller and ballast driver circuits. Using the boost function of the UBA2016A, high-end commercial-grade amalgam-based tube lamps will have a run-up time almost similar to mercury-based tube lamps. The fully integrated dimming function, which is unique for t...
Micronas presenting new generation of Hall sensors for extended position measurement

ALPS Develops and Commences Mass Production of “HGPRDT Series” High-Precision Latch 2-Phase Type Magnetic Sensor
ALPS ELECTRIC EUROPE GmbH has developed the HGPRDT Series highprecision latch 2-phase output* type magnetic sensor for use in automotive equipment, supporting a wide operating temperature range between –40°C and +140°C, and high voltages up to 30V.
Wireless power could revolutionize highway transportation
The converter to change AC to the necessary DC to charge an electric vehicle typically wastes 5-10% of power, whether it is located in the vehicle or in the charging station. It is not exactly green to add inductive charging which wastes a further 5-20% but very attractive operationally because the driver stays safe and clean in the vehicle. This inductive charging brings principle of the electric toothbrush to the car and about 30 companies are ...
