Stackpole’s UHV Series of chip resistors offer high precision and stability in a surface mount package that is capable of handling extremely high voltages. The voltage ranges for each size are as follows: 2010-3,000 to 6,000V, 2512-4,000 to 10KV, 3512-4,000V to 14KV, 4020-6,000V to 16KV, 5020-6,000V to 20KV.

Stackpole's CSRF Series utilises foil on ceramic technology to achieve very low values in small chip sizes. The 0.25W rated CSRF0402 - HP, for example, is available in resistance values from 20Ω down to 2.5Ω. TCR ranges from ±400ppm to ±200ppm are possible depending on resistance value with tolerances as low as one percent.

Designing electronic devices is never easy, as engineering professionals know only too well. Meeting the ambitious project goals almost always means making trade-offs of some description, so as to deal with the conflicting objectives of marketing departments and end customers - who inevitably expect significantly more functionality than the previous generation, while occupying much less board real estate.

Specialist manufacturer of power, precision and shunt resistors, Riedon, has announced that it has reached an agreement to acquire KRL/Bantry Components, a long-standing manufacturer of high quality wirewound resistors. The acquisition will enhance Riedon’s offering across key areas while enabling it to further expand its product lines.

Thermal jumper chips that enable circuit designers to manage temperature rise in compact power electronic assemblies have been released by TT Electronics. The TJC series provide a thermally conductive pathway with electrical isolation for management of PCB hotspot areas.

The TPS3840 from Texas Instruments is a nanopower high-input voltage supervisor with manual reset and programmable reset time delay. Wide Vin allows monitoring nine volt rails or batteries without external components and 24V rails with external resistors. Nano-Iq extends battery life for low power applications and minimises current consumption when using external resistors.

A series of high voltage thick film chip resistors that offer high power ratings up to 1.5 W and working voltages to 3000 V in five compact case sizes ranging from 1206 to 2512 has been introduced by Vishay Intertechnology. For increased design flexibility, the Vishay Techno CRHP series is available in a variety of styles, termination materials, configurations, and custom sizes.

The demand for standard medical open frame power supplies has increased drastically; provided the supplier can offer the right product range and modifications. More and more customers in the field of medical technology are trying to rejuvenate their products and design whole device families and on a platform basis.

Two new members of the BCR linear LED controller IC portfolio from Infineon Technologies have been introduced with the BCR601 and BCR602. The BCR601 features an innovative voltage feedback to the primary side also known as ‘active headroom control’ (AHC), enabling cost and power effective LED driver applications.

First the industry talked about miniature electronics, now it’s ultra-miniature and nano (effectively nearly invisible). Soon the buzz will be around molecular electronics, where the device components exist as individual molecules with the potential to form their own systems! Theaim for improved technology is driven by speed and size: the smaller it is, the quicker the signal passes from one point to another, and the more applications of te...
