NXP Semiconductors N.V. today introduced the industry’s first development platforms for DALI and DMX512 wired lighting control systems based on the low-cost, low-power 32-bit ARM Cortex-M0 processor. The new evaluation systems feature an NXP LPC1100XL series microcontroller, which is uniquely suited to handle the communication requirements for intelligent lighting projects using DALI and DMX.

The SPS-G075 Series comprises 75W Single Output Green Mode designed power supplies for low power consumption / environment protection purposes. Available in 5V, 12V, 25V, 24V, 30V & 48V models with a max. output wattage of 76.8W under natural cooling environment and 105°C capacitor built-in the power units works with wide range operating temperature from -20°C to +70°C.

Maxim has introduced the MAX11080, a high-voltage, 12-channel battery-protection IC for high-cell-count lithium-ion (Li+) battery stacks. The first stackable fault monitor on the market, this device provides redundant cell monitoring to prevent Li+ batteries from exploding (thermal runaway). Up to 31 MAX11080s can be daisy-chained together to monitor as many as 372 cells. This capability prevents cascading electrical failures and eliminates the e...

Maxim Integrated Products Inc. today announced that the company is collaborating with Xilinx and Avnet during the 2012 season of X-Fest. Maxim will provide content for several technical seminars and present demos on the company’s highly integrated analog and mixed-signal solutions for the Xilinx 7 series and Kintex™-7 field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) and the Zynq-7000 Extended Processing Platform.

Micrel launched the KSZ8895/8875/8864 series. The devices are low-power, highly integrated, 4/5-port Layer-2 switch-on-a-chip ICs. Leveraging Micrel’s latest green physical transceiver and switch technology, the product family achieves a 50 percent reduction in power consumption compared to the previous generation. Meeting the increasing demands for Ethernet connectivity in consumer and industrial applications, the family features advanced p...

NXP Semiconductors, a leading supplier of chipsets for energy-efficient IC-based lighting solutions, today unveiled two new generations of compact fluorescent lighting (CFL) light bulb drivers and controllers, based on its GreenChip™ technology: the UBA2027 family which enables customers to develop CFL bulbs for energy saving lamps that provide smoother dimming capabilities to levels below 10 percent and the UBA221x family for non-dimming CFL b...

NXP Semiconductors N.V. today announced the SSL21081, a highly efficient, high-voltage LED driver IC for compact, non-dimmable retrofit lamps based on GreenChip technology. The SSL21081 platform makes it easy for LED retrofit lamp manufacturers to design cost-effective applications for the 100V, 110V and 120V markets with up to 95 percent efficiency, underscoring NXP’s commitment to smarter energy-efficient lighting solutions.

NXP announced its intent to make its JenNet-IP ultra-low-power, IEEE 802.15.4-based wireless connectivity network layer software available under an Open Source license, as part of its vision to enable the “Internet of Things.”

ROHM has recently announced the industry’s first mass production of SiC power modules (1200V/100A rated) comprised entirely of SiC power elements as custom module. Incorporating SiC inverters and converters for power conversion in industrial equipment provides a number of advantages over typical silicon-based IGBT modules such as switching loss reduction by 85%, approximately 50% less volume compared to conventional 400A-class Si IGBT modules a...
