Atmel Corporation today announced the SAM3S series. This series includes 18 general-purpose Cortex-M3 based Flash microcontrollers that simplify PCB design and save 50 percent power at 1MHz operation with a consumption of only 2.3mW. At maximum operating frequency of 64MHz the device consumes 1.45mW/MHz. Inspired by the market's best-selling ARM7TDMI-based SAM7S series, these MCUs enable SAM7S customers to migrate to a 50 percent more powerful an...

ROHM Semiconductor, in collaboration with its affiliated company, OKI Semiconductor Co., Ltd., today announced the launch of a dedicated Large Scale Integrated (LSI) circuit family designed to support the Intel® Atom™ processor E6xx series (formerly code-named Tunnel Creek). This chipset consists of a power management IC (PMIC), a clock generator IC (CGIC) and an input/output hub (IOH) IC. A reference board that simplifies customer development...

Luminary Micro has announced the new Stellaris DK-LM3S9B96 Development Kit platform in support of the ten new Stellaris family members launched earlier this month. The new development kit provides users access to all the features of the new Stellaris microcontrollers, including new combinations of connectivity, data efficiency, and advanced motion control.

ON Semiconductor and NXP Semiconductors N.V. have introduced an evaluation board and complete reference design for power efficient Twisted Pair (TP) networks. The evaluation board, which will be available in May, is undergoing the final phases of formal KNX certification.

NXP Semiconductors N.V. today unveiled the first MOSFET in the NextPower range with a 30V Power-SO8 MOSFET, featuring the industry’s lowest RDSon of 1.4mOhm at 4.5V. The new MOSFET, PSMN1R0-30YLC, is optimized for 4.5V switching applications and is packaged in LFPAK, the industry’s toughest Power-SO8 package. The NextPower technology has been specifically optimized for high performance DC-DC conversion applications such as synchronous buck re...

NXP Semiconductors N.V. has announced the availability of the LD6806CX4 ultra low-dropout voltage regulator (LDO), featuring ultra-low dropout of only 60 mV at a 200-mA current rating. With an ultra-small 0.76 x 0.76 x 0.47mm wafer-level chip-scale package (WLCSP), the LD6806CX4 uses minimal board space, making it ideal for extremely space-constrained designs in mobile handsets, where battery life is also a critical success factor. Batteries in m...

NXP announced that it is shipping 15 new devices in the NextPower range of 25V and 30V MOSFETs in its LFPAK package. The latest additions to NXP’s power MOSFET portfolio deliver uniquely balanced characteristics across the six most important parameters for high-performance, high-reliability switching applications, while providing the industry’s lowest RDS(on) with sub-1 mΩ types in both 25V and 30V. While traditional approaches focus pr...

Plextek, the Cambridge-based electronics and communications design consultancy has launched a range of strategic consulting activities to cover environmental advice and evaluation. Plextek is now able to help clients in communications equipment and services markets to evaluate technology options that both benefit the environment and make sense economically. A commercial advantage can also be generated thanks to the current dynamic regulatory envi...

CUI Inc’s power line, V-Infinity, announced the addition of a 1.5 A model to their V78XX switching regulator series. With this latest addition, CUI now offers 0.5 A, 1 A, 1.5 A, and 2 A switching regulators to meet a wide variety of power needs. The compact V78XX-1500 series has been designed to be a high performance alternative to linear regulators. Unlike linear regulators, this series does not require a heat sink, making it ideal for app...

CUI Inc announced the addition of an ultra-wide input 500 mA model to their V78 switching regulator series. The V78W-500 series has been designed as a high performance alternative to linear regulators. Unlike linear regulators, this series does not require a heat sink, making it ideal for applications where board space is at a premium and energy efficiency is a concern.
