Vishay Intertechnology has extended its MCW AT Professional family of wide terminal thin film chip resistors by supplementing the existing MCW 0406 AT line with an additional case size for power handling of up to 1W. For power electronics in industrial and automotive applications, the MCW 0612 AT Professional devices provide high power dissipation, high-temperature performance, and renowned long-term thin film stability.

The trend in next-gen systems is towards miniaturisation. With a height of only 30 mm, the new LRS-35, LRS-50, LRS-75, LRS-100 and LRS-150F series from Mean Well enable system designers to use limited space flexibly. In addition, a no-load power consumption of <0.2 W to <0.5 W allows systems to easily achieve low power consumption, thus meeting energy conservation requirements.

A patented technique using switched capacitor charge pumps to produce small, efficient power supplies and inverters could spell the end for transformer-based systems. Sally Ward-Foxton reports.
