Cree Releases SPICE Model for Silicon Carbide Power MOSFET
Cree, Inc. has expanded its design-in support for the industry's first commercially-available SiC MOSFET power devices with a fully-qualified SPICE model. Using the new SPICE model, circuit designers can easily evaluate the benefits Cree's SiC Z-FETT MOSFETs provide for achieving a higher level of efficiency than is possible with conventional silicon power switching devices for comparably-rated devices.
Honeywell Micropower Omnipolar Digital Hall-Effect Sensor ICs
Honeywell today announced the SL353 Series Micropower Omnipolar Digital Hall-Effect Sensor Integrated Circuits (ICs). The SL353 Series uses a BiCMOS IC design, a new Honeywell technology, which makes it possible to add more performance and functionality while reducing the size of the IC (compared to bipolar technology).
Commutation Encoder Offers Flexibility
CUIDevices announced a new addition to its high resolution, low-cost AMT encoder line with the AMT303 series. The encoder generates standard U/V/W commutation signals for vectoring current to brushless motors. Resolutions can be set through the AMT303’s SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface). Commutation output can accommodate brushless motors with 2, 4, 6, 8 or 10 pole pairs, and is also selectable via the SPI. The AMT303 offers supplementary i...
5 mm Buzzers Ideal for Mobile Equipment Applications
CUIDevices announces a new addition to their buzzer product line with the CSS-05 series. Available in three configurations, the buzzers are extremely compact, housed in a 5 x 5 mm SMT package. Using magnetic technology, the series has a rated voltage of 3 V and a rated frequency of 4 K Hz.
Moisture-proof overmoulded VN1015 series digital vane sensors from ZF Electronics are magnetically-operated
The new Cherry VN1015 series of digital vane sensors from ZF Electronics are designed for applications which require robust repeatable sensors immune to moisture and dust. These digital sensors are magnetically operated, so there are no mechanical contacts to wear out, ensuring extra-long product life and reliability. Models in the VN1015 series are available either with 3-pin sink output or with 24 AWG terminations and will cope with operating...
Cherry speed and sensors catalogue now available
ZF Electronics, formerly Cherry Electrical Products, has produced a new catalogue detailing its full range of speed and position sensors suitable for demanding environments, including extremes of temperature, humidity, thermal shock and vibration. Products include magnetic position sensors, vane sensors, geartooth speed only/speed and direction sensors and angular position sensors. Three additional ranges of custom sensors (rugged rotary encode...
Cherry switches and sensors ensure the safety of commercial garage door operators
Safety is a prime consideration when specifying operators for both commercial and domestic garage doors, as clearly such doors are extremely heavy and have the potential to cause significant injury if components fail to limit the speed and travel of their movement. The UL specification that relates to garage door operators, UL325, now covers operators for both domestic garage doors (Class I regulations) and commercial garage doors (Class II regu...
austriamicrosystems scores success in patent infringement lawsuit against Melexis
austriamicrosystems announced that the District Court (Landgericht) in Duesseldorf (Germany) issued a decision in the patent infringement lawsuit regarding magnetic field encoder products against Melexis N.V. / SA (Belgium) and its German subsidiary Melexis GmbH fully in favor of austriamicrosystems. In its first-instance verdict the court established that the sale and distribution of products from Melexis’ product family of magnetic field enc...
austriamicrosystems and New Scale Technologies expand their cooperation in sales of standard ICs
austriamicrosystems and partner New Scale Technologies, Inc., a provider of innovative miniature motion systems have strengthened their sales and distribution relationship by incorporating New Scale’s proprietary ASICs into austriamicrosystems standard product portfolio.
