Vishay shows full hand at New Orleans event
Power IC, passive component, diode, and MOSFET technologies for a wide range of applications including the automotive market will be shown by Vishay at APEC 2020 in New Orleans (March 15-19).
Acquisition adds resistors to passive components portfolio
Exxelia has announced that it has completed, on Dec 23rd, 2019, the acquisition of Micropen Technologies Corporation. Micropen is a manufacturer of high technology resistors, known under the Ohmcraft brand, serving the medical, defence, space and industrial markets. Micropen also manufactures with the same technology special sensors dedicated to the medical and security markets.
Stepping motor driver IC with integrated current sensing
Toshiba Electronics Europe has launched an additional device to its line-up of micro-stepping motor driver ICs. The new TC78H670FTG is a dual channel high resolution micro-stepping motor driver IC that is capable of driving motors with a wide range of operating voltages.
Digital power system design software saves time
Flex Power Modules has added new features to make its Flex Power Designer software even easier to use for digital power system design, as well as broadening the products it supports. The new version 3.2 will save engineers time when developing their power systems, as well as reducing the risk of any problems with their design.
Single IC can produce isolated or non-isolated ±12V outputs
Electric vehicles, large-scale battery storage stacks, home automation, industrial, and telecom power all require converting high voltages to ±12V, where dual polarity rails are required for powering amplifiers, sensors, data converters, and industrial process controllers. Zhijun Qian, Senior Engineer and William Xiong, Applications Engineer, at Analog Devices (ADI) investigate.
The need for GaN
Harnessing the speed of GaN, Power Integrations has embedded PowiGaN, its high voltage GaN switch technology in its switcher ICs for a performance boost
Feature-rich systems demand configurable PMICs
Feature-rich systems demand flexible and configurable, 20V, high current power management ICs (PMICs), argues Steve Knoth, senior product marketing manager, Analog Devices
High-speed gate driver with five volt negative input voltage
The UCC27517A single-channel, high-speed, low-side gate driver device from Texas Instruments is capable of effectively driving MOSFET and IGBT power switches. Using a design that minimises shoot-through current, the UCC27517A is capable of sourcing and sinking high peak-current pulses into capacitive loads offering rail-to-rail drive capability and extremely small propagation delay typically 13ns.
Addressing high-voltage current-sensing design challenges in HEV/EVs
Electrification has created a new paradigm in automotive power systems; whether the design is a hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) or fully electric vehicle (EV), there are new design challenges to address. In this technical article, I’d like to highlight some of the primary challenges in high-voltage current sensing and share additional resources to aid and simplify your design process.
Resistor-programmable temperature switch enables protection
The TMP390-Q1 device from Texas Instruments is part of a family of ultra-low power, dual channel, resistor programmable temperature switches that enable protection and detection of system thermal events from -40 to +125°C. The TMP390-Q1 offers independent overtemperature (hot) and undertemperature (cold) detection.
