iC-Haus premieres slave transceiver at electronica
At electronica in Munich (November 13-17), iC-Haus will present the new IO-Link Slave Transceiver iC-GFP. The iC-GFP features two independent, COM3-compliant channels with a feedback channel each. The configuration of the iC is accomplished via SPI.
LED lighting control reference design for machine vision
This LED lighting control reference design demonstrates an approach to drive and control a string of multiple high power light emitting diodes (LEDs). This reference design is targeted for industrial machine vision systems and is also suitable for other industrial or automotive lighting applications.
Simplifying the driving of low power lighting
It has been announced that Diodes Incorporated, is extending its family of automotive LED drivers with the BCR4xxUQ series that simplifies the driving of low power lighting. LED technology is displacing conventional bulbs throughout the car for a number of applications.
Small outline synchronous rectification MOSFET driver
It has been announced by Diodes Incorporated, that they are launching the APR346 Secondary Side Synchronous Rectification MOSFET Driver, providing increased efficiency for off line power adapters delivering five to 20VDC from an AC supply.
Automotive reverse polarity protection reference design
Reverse polarity is standard protection required in an automotive environment. When battery cables are detached and reconnected there is a probability of connecting the wires to wrong terminals of the battery. This mistake could damage the components in Electronic Control Units (ECU). To avoid damage to the ECU there is a need for reverse polarity protection. Schotky diodes could be used but will have a constantly high power loss.
Rotary encoders with Blue Emitter LEDs
An innovative rotary encoder with BlueBeam Technology has been released by Pepperl+Fuchs, with the ENI58IL. For the first time, this technology equips industry-standard rotary encoders with the precision required for rotational speeds of up to 12,000 RPM.
120W and 240W DIN rail power supplies are 93% efficient
TDK has announced the introduction of two additional DRB DIN rail mount AC/DC power supplies, rated at 120W and 240W (144W/288W peak for 10 seconds). The products have a very narrow width, providing additional space for other DIN rail mount modules. Having efficiencies of 93%, less internal heat is generated resulting in cooler electrolytic capacitors a field life of greater than 7 years at 75% load, 230VAC input.
Offline buck converter for IoT applications
The availability of the AL17050 universal offline buck converter, designed for low power Internet of Things (IoT) applications has been announced by Diodes. With its wide AC input voltage range and fully integrated MOSFET, it provides a compact and efficient solution to generating a constant voltage for low power applications that need to comply with strict standby power restrictions.
Integrated TVS diode solutions for surge protection
Inelco Hunter has announced the availability of two Integrated TVS Diode solutions (Transient Voltage Suppressors) from ProTek Devices, designed to protect DC power lines and Ethernet lines against surge events such as switching and lightning. Both devices feature a highly-integrated design, offering reliable and compact surge protection solutions.
Choosing the best designed LEDs for clients
When Light Emitting Diodes, or LEDs, became the main form of lighting, many architects and interior designers thought that the future of lighting was not just bright, it was infinitely variable. So why does it so often happen that the LED lighting they choose for their clients is a disappointment?
