SiGe Power Amplifier aims to improve power consumption for WLANs and ISM band applications
SiGe Semiconductor has announced the availability of the SE2597L power amplifier (PA) designed specifically for 2.4GHz ISM Band applications. This highly integrated silicon device is the latest PA in SiGe Semiconductor's successful line of discrete 2.4 GHz silicon power amplifiers. Offering an industry-leading combination of high performance and low current consumption, the SE2597L integrates a reference voltage generator and a load-insensitive p...
RS232 Radio Interface Board from Radiometrix
The TDi2 from Radiometrix is a RS232 interface board which combines a TDL2A 433-9 OEM multi-channel wireless modem module (operating at a half-duplex serial data rate of 9600bits/s ), an RS232 driver, a 9 way DB9F connector, helical SMA aerial and power connectors, and a local 5V voltage regulator.
TI - Synchronous DC/DC boost converter saves space and cost in portable devices
Texas Instruments has introduced two integrated products designed to provide power and protection for USB ports. The TPS2500 and TPS2501 incorporate a boost switching regulator with an onboard current-limiting switch that saves space and cost by providing an integrated solution that meets 5-V USB power requirements from a 1.8 – 5.25 V input. The output current limit can be programmed via an external resistor from as low as 130 mA to as high...
TI’s Dual-output 200-ma Power Supply Improves Picture Quality In AMOLED Displays
Texas Instruments introduced a new 200-mA dual output power supply designed to provide improved picture quality for active matrix OLED (AMOLED) displays that require positive and negative supply rails. The TPS65137 uses a low dropout (LDO) post regulator for line and load transient response with minimum output voltage ripples to provide stable picture quality.
TI's updated Stellaris EVALBOT opens the door for more flexibility and fun with microcontrollers and robotics
Arming developers with more software and tool options, Texas Instruments announced the availability of its newest Stellaris microcontroller (MCU) Robotic Evaluation Platform (EVALBOT).

TI’s new Multi-DC/DC Color LED Kit delivers more design flexibility for lighting systems that require a variety of LED types and string lengths
Providing all of the open source hardware and software needed to jumpstart LED lighting design, Texas Instruments announced its new TMS320C2000 real-time microcontroller (MCU) Multi-DC/DC Color LED Kit. The new kit includes separate DC/DC power stages to control two RGB and two white LED strings or up to eight white LED strings.
Jennic BOMs cost for ZigBee/IEEE802.15.4 reference designs to under US$5
Jennic says it has achieved a new price point for ZigBee and IEEE 802.15.4 nodes with the introduction of a low-cost reference design for its JN5139 wireless microcontroller which reduces the volume bill of materials (BOM) cost of modules for wireless sensor networks to well under $5. This includes the cost of the Jennic JN5139 wireless microcontroller, a high performance PCB antenna design, and all other ancillary components.
Device Helps Protect Electric Motors and Transformers from Overcurrent and Overtemperature
Raychem Circuit Protection, a business unit of Tyco Electronics, has announced the introduction of its PolySwitch LVR series of resettable circuit protection devices. PolySwitch LVR devices help protect electric motors and transformers used in commercial and home appliances from failures caused by mechanical overloads, overheating, stall, lost neutral and other potentially damaging conditions.
Renesas Electronics Lowers the Bar for Ultra-Low Power Microcontrollers with its New RX200 32-Bit MCU Series
Renesas Electronics today introduced the first products in the new RX200 Series of 32-bit microcontrollers (MCUs) with embedded Flash memory that extend its very successful RX MCU family into the realm of ultra-low power and wide-voltage range operation.
16V 250 mA LDO from Microchip
Microchip has announced the MCP1703 Low Dropout Regulator (LDO)—a 250 mA LDO with low quiescent current of just 2μA and high input voltage of up to 16V. The new LDO features device- and circuit-protection capabilities including over-voltage protection and thermal shutdown. The MCP1703 also offers highly accurate output-voltage regulation, including +/- 2 percent over-temperature accuracy, helping to ensure smooth, reliable system operation...
