SABIC Innovative Plastics launched a new portfolio of specialty resins and compounds that can optimize the performance, lifespan and aesthetics of light-emitting diode retrofit lighting. These materials include non-brominated, non-chlorinated flame-retardant Lexan* polycarbonate resin and new white LNP* Konduit* thermally conductive compound for LED heat sinks, which adds style to outstanding heat dissipation for extended bulb life. One hundred a...

Future Lighting Solutions is pleased to announce the illumination of the Pearl River in Guangzhou, with 700,000 LUXEON Rebel LEDs. The city of Guangzhou recently completed a project to illuminate the banks of the Pearl River as part of their welcome ceremony for the Asian Games and to celebrate the successful convening of the Games in Guangzhou. This project was an open tender called for by the Guangzhou Municipal Government, which was awarded to...

GKN plc announces its agreement to acquire the all-wheel-drive (AWD) components businesses of Getrag KG, the privately held German company controlled by the Hagenmeyer family. The businesses being acquired, together referred to as “Getrag Driveline Products”, are Getrag Corporation, a joint venture with Dana Corporation based in the United States, and Getrag All Wheel Drive AB, a joint venture with Dana Holding Corporation and Volvo Car Corp...

Linear Technology Corporation announces the LT3992, a monolithic, dual output step-down switching regulator that delivers up to 3A of continuous output current from each channel. It operates from an input voltage range of 3V to 60V, ideal for applications requiring continuous output voltage regulation through load dump and cold-crank conditions found in automotive applications. Independent input, shutdown, feedback, soft-start, current limit and ...

Texas Instruments Incorporated today introduced a fully integrated, programmable solution for driving ultrasonic transducers in automotive park distance, blind-spot detection or similar object detection applications. With its highly configurable burst generator, low-noise amplifier and 12-bit successive-approximation-register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter (ADC), the PGA450-Q1 provides for processing the echo signals and calculating the distan...

Linear Technology Corporation announces the LT3988, a 60VIN step-down switching regulator that can deliver dual 1A outputs. The LT3988 operates within a VIN range of 4V to 60V, with overvoltage lockout protection against transients as high as 80V, making it ideal for load dump and cold-crank conditions commonly found in automotive applications. The LT3988 can be driven by two separate input rails or by a single input, maximizing design flexibilit...

NXP Semiconductors today announced the release of the UJA107x family, its second generation of CAN/LIN System Basis Chips (SBCs) for in-vehicle networks. The UJA107x SBCs optimize the performance, power consumption and cost of electronic control units (ECUs) for a broad range of automotive applications, such as body control modules, climate control, seat control, electric power steering (EPS), adaptive lighting, rain/light sensors, parking assist...

As electronic content in cars continues to increase, energy management, safety and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) robustness have become critical requirements for in-vehicle networks. Freescale Semiconductor today announced its next generation of system basis chips (SBCs) to address these issues. The SBC devices integrate an energy management module to power microcontrollers (MCUs), transceiver interfaces to connect with in-vehicle networks ...

ON Semiconductor, has introduced two new integrated transceiver devices for use in local interconnect network (LIN) and control area network (CAN) designs in automotive and industrial applications. Both the NCV7425 LIN+LDO transceiver and NVC7441 dual CAN transceiver offer a robust, space saving and cost-effective solution for next-generation automotive ‘convenience’ applications as well as LIN and CAN based industrial designs

The iC-MH8 is a highly variable system on chip magnetic encoder device providing fast step response for motor control applications. Combined with a diametrically magnetized permanent magnet, this compact device (QFN28 5x5 package) can be used to create a vigorous, universal encoder with motor commutation and positioning interfaces. The highly integrated iC-MH8 includes a Hall sensor array with signal amplification control, incremental (ABZ) outpu...
