Ceramic capacitors feature CH/C0G characteristics
Murata announces 0201 size (0.6×0.3mm), 25V temperature compensation-type monolithic ceramic capacitors with CH/C0G characteristics. These capacitors are thought to be the first in the world of this size to achieve a capacitance rating of 1,000pF.
Miniature MLCCs help reduce pcb size
The new Murata GRM Series of 1206 and 1210 size monolithic ceramic capacitors (MLCCs) are now available in Europe at TTI. As electronic products need to deliver ever-greater levels of functionality within smaller devices, the available component space becomes increasingly constrained, creating a growing demand for high capacity, miniature capacitors.
Carbon nanotubes enable miniaturised optical devices
Research published in Nature demonstrates carbon nanotubes creating wafer-thin, flat structures that enable the miniaturisation of optical devices. Removing the need for traditional curved refracting lensing systems, which are generally bulky and expensive, will enable new compact optical systems based on this nanotechnology.
AR & wearables: a marriage made for the enterprise
While much of the hype around AR (Augmented Reality) and wearables has been focused on consumer technology, a new report from Beecham Research suggests that it will be business applications that drive growth over the next five years. The report points to manufacturing, logistics, healthcare and retail as some of the most dynamic markets, where AR offers a new way for people to interact with information hands-free, to provide a greater depth of co...
Antenna miniaturisation enables high data rates in tight spaces
Pulse Electronics has announced a new method of constructing antennas to enable high data rates in tight spaces that require 3x3 MIMO configurations such as tablets, laptops, and notebook computers. The DenseAnt TL 1.0 advanced manufacturing antenna technology fits three WLAN antennas in physically the same volume as was used for two LDS antennas without compromising performance or isolation.
PCB boards come in miniature size
In order to meet the miniaturisation and energy saving demands for related end electronic products from the industrial and control market, MEAN WELL is pleased to unveil the 45W/65W ~EPS-45S/65S series with merely 3x2” PCB board size after the same 45W/65W EPS-45/65 series (4x2”) were released.
Integration enables highly efficient voltage conversion
STMicroelectronics has announced that its 32-bit automotive MCUs and Power MOSFETs have been selected by Toyota Industries Corporation (TICO) for the DC-DC converter in Toyota's new, fourth-generation Prius hybrid-vehicle platform.
Electronics integration spawns additional revenue streams
Since pneumatic systems are not energy-efficient by nature, the integration of pneumatic equipment with electronics will address the need for compact, efficient solutions in the global market. This is especially crucial as the stringent enforcement of environmental regulations spurs the demand for energy-efficient products across industries.
Increased energy saving in industrial applications
ROHM’s recently announced AC/DC converter control IC, designed specifically for SiC MOSFETs in industrial equipment such as servers and other large power applications, was showcased at SPS IPC Drives.The BD7682FJ-LB allows the easy implementation of SiC-MOSFETs to an AC/DC converter which has proved challenging when using discrete configurations due to the large number of components required.
ODU establishes Japanese subsidiary
ODU is strengthening its presence in the strategically important Asian market with a new subsidiary in Japan. ODU Japan K.K. guarantees optimum service and will be geared specifically towards the needs of local customers.
