STMicroelectronics Leads Drive to Better LED Signage for High-Resolution Viewing
STMicroelectronics has announced a new series of highly accurate LED drivers with automatic power saving, enabling electronic signage such as road signs, advertising, stadium displays, battery or solar-powered signs and similar equipment to deliver better, high-resolution viewing by ensuring consistent brightness across the viewing area.
First Product in STM's QST Family of Capacitive Touch Sensors Launched
STMicroelectronics has announced the launch of the QST108, the first IC in a family of capacitive touch sense products that will enable contemporary and innovative user interfaces for many markets. QST family products are all-digital standard products based on proven, patented technology recently licensed from Quantum Research Group. ST is the first semiconductor company to license QProx technology from Quantum.
TI introduces the industry’s smallest single-wire I/O expander
Texas Instruments Incorporated has introduced the industry’s smallest single-wire I/O expander with self-timed, single-wire technology from Texas Instruments. The TCA5405 allows system designers to control and expand outputs to as many as five, using a single processor general purpose input/output. This expander reduces the number of connections needed, thus eliminating 50 percent of the lines versus I2C, and 75 percent compared to a serial...
Boost Converter manages multiple high-brightness LEDs
Texas Instruments has introduced a high-brightness LED driver with an integrated 40V, 1.2A switch that can drive up to three 1W LEDs in series. The new TPS61165 device's high-performance features and input voltage range of 3 to 18V allow designers to efficiently manage multiple high-power LEDs used in single-cell, battery-powered applications or point-of-load designs with a 9 or 12V bus.
TI boost controller drives industrial lighting innovation
Texas Instruments has introduced a 4.5 V to 52 V wide-input voltage, non-synchronous boost controller, intended for applications where the output is a regulated current instead of a regulated voltage. The new TPS40211, demonstrated at the Light+Building Frankfurt show (April 6 – 11, 2008) at the “LED Light for you (LLFY) – powered by OSRAM” booth (Hall 4.1 / D31), allows designers to efficiently manage LED lighting, indust...
New 6-digit display allows data display from RS232 and RS485 serial interfaces
The new SerialDis display , available from Celsum Technologies, is a packaged in a rugged ABS housing sealed to IP65, and is ideal for when a data display driven by an RS232 or RS485 interface in required. SerialDis has six bright, red, 7-segment LEDs, nominally 20mm high, that can be programmed to display data. from a PC or directly from a suitably configured device. Celsum offers several such devices, such as the radio telelmetry T24-SO serial ...

The versatile JC Series is a high quality switch offering a variety illuminated package styles to fit nearly any design requirement. With bi-colored LED combinations in blue, green, red, yellow and white, the JC series offers an internal snap-action mechanism providing long lasting, quick make and break momentary or latching contacts. Single color LEDs are three segment and bi-color include six segments offering uniform lighting. Offering laser e...
Hi-Speed Customisation Service for Subracks and Panels
Rittal has introduced a new hi-speed service especially for subracks and plug-in board front panels, providing a one stop shop for the customisation of front panels, including cut-outs, screen printing, engraving and alternative finishes. The service is available for flat & profiled EMC panels and also for AMC and PMC panels.
Rittal launches new modification service
Rittal has launched a new service that will allow the specification of holes, cut-outs and engraving in their extensive range of enclosures. Based in a new facility at their UK headquarters in Rotherham the service will offer a 5 working day delivery on enclosures modified to users specification using a state-of-the art machining centre.
Rittal - Plug-in modules for PSM rails
Rittal has extended its Power System Module (PSM) range to allow the power consumption of individual servers and peripheral hardware to be measured per socket. New plug-in modules for PSM rails record the individual currents for each socket and show the power consumption of the devices connected via three coloured LEDs on the right-hand side. A second LED on the left-hand side of the outgoing slots provides an overview of the overall power of the...
