National Semiconductor announced a new synchronous voltage-mode buck controller that drives a variety of high-current point-of-load applications in printers, telecom, networking and embedded computing applications.

National Semiconductor has introduced the industry’s first 100V half-bridge gate driver optimized for use with enhancement-mode Gallium-Nitride (GaN) power field-effect transistors (FETs) in high-voltage power converters. National’s new LM5113 is a highly-integrated, high-side and low-side GaN FET driver that reduces component count by 75 percent and shrinks printed circuit board (PCB) area by up to 85 percent compared to discrete driver de...

National Semiconductor Corp. today introduced the industry’s first full-bridge pulse width modulation (PWM) controllers to integrate all four primary-side bridge MOSFET gate drivers. The LM5045 and LM5046 are well-suited for delivering higher efficiency and higher power density in quarter-brick and eighth-brick power modules used in a variety of high input voltage communications infrastructure applications.

In response to market demand for Ultra-Wide Input range converters, Ideal Power Ltd has added two new 4:1 input models to their high efficiency ESM Series. The ESM series are based on Industrial standard footprint of 1.87 x 1.16in and are capable of delivering up to 35W of output power, or up to 10A of output current at lower output voltage.

Ideal Power Ltd are pleased to announce the addition of the new EST Series of 1/16th brick isolated DC-DC converters to their growing portfolio of isolated DC-DC converters for high-speed networking, telecommunications, and computing applications.

The new XC9128/XC9129 Series of synchronous step-up DC-DC converters from Torex Semiconductor allow engineers to achieve efficient step-up circuits from input voltages as low as 0.8V. These two series are suitable for a variety of battery-powered portable and hand-held device applications, such as digital audio players, digital still cameras and video equipment.

The new XCM517 Series multi-chip module (MCM) from Torex Semiconductor combines two XC9235/XC9236 synchronous step-down DC/DC converters in a space saving ultra small USP-12B01 (2.8mm x 2.3mm x 0.6mm) package. These highly integrated devices are suitable for space conscious battery-driven applications, such as mobile phones, PDAs, digital cameras and other portable equipment.

To meet the automotive industry’s ever-increasing need for processing performance and integration, Freescale Semiconductor today announced its next-generation 32-bit MCUs designed specifically for automotive applications. The new Qorivva microcontroller (MCU) families, based on Power Architecture® technology, are built using a unique 55 nanometer (nm) non-volatile memory (NVM) process for improved power efficiency and cost effectiveness.

RS Components disclosed that DesignSpark, the online gateway that gives engineers trusted and reliable information and resources, has become the industry’s fastest growing community of electronics engineers.
