MicroPower step-up low-voltage booster module enables practical energy capture from low-power generators
Advanced Linear Devices Inc., announces the release of a new family of MicroPower Step-up Low-Voltage Booster Modules. Designated the ALD EH4200 Series, these printed circuit board modules are designed to step-up or boost the output voltage of certain popular energy generators, which by themselves are unable to initiate the electronic capture process for efficiently harvesting ambient or waste energy.
Marvel introduces industry's first single chip dual-string dimmable LED lighting controller family
Marvell has announced the world's first dual-string smart LED controller chip, the 88EM8801, which uses the company's unique power technology to enable superior lighting performance.
