Medium Power multilayer chip varistors
AVX Corporation has made available medium power multilayer chip varistors for transient voltage suppression and ESD protection in automotive electronics, designated the Automotive Series – VC13, 14, 15 and 20. The devices operate over -55 to 125 degrees Celsius, feature high energy ratings of up to 25 Joules in a 2220 case size, and are specified with ‘Load Dump’ and ‘Jump Start’ test requirements.
Medium power multilayer chip varistors
Medium power multilayer chip varistors from AVX Corporation are available for transient voltage suppression and ESD protection in telecommunications, designated the Telecom Series – VC14. The devices operate over -55 to 125 degrees Celsius, and meet interference requirements of telecoms equipment with a 2000 V rated test pulse of 10 x 700 µs duration as specified by CCITT or IEC 61000-4-5. For example a 60 Vrms varistor can reduce the interfe...
AVX Develops New Termination Design for Tantalum Capacitors
AVX Corporation has developed a new termination style for MnO2 (TLN Series) and polymer (TCN Series) tantalum capacitors that reduces the required internal construction space by up to 60 per cent and enables parts to be positioned very closely together.
Optical light pipes from CML produce bright, even indication
New Bright Pipes, optical light pipes from CML Innovative Technologies (CML-IT) produce bright, even indication based on optical ray tracing. Ideal for transferring light from a PCB to a front panel, the devices conveniently and economically conduct light from SMT LEDs through angles and distances to a viewable front lens surface.
Harwin’s EZ-BoardWare SMT components provide simple, cost-saving solutions for EMC, cable management and test
Harwin is launching a new brand – EZ BoardWare – comprising surface mount products that improve manufacturing flexibility, reduce manufacturing costs and improve in field maintenance.
Harwin adds larger size SMT shield clips to handle wider range of RFI protective cans
Harwin, the leading manufacturer of connectors and interconnect solutions for high-reliability applications, has broadened the range of surface mount EMI/RFI shield clips it offers with the launch of its Maxi Clip, which handles protective cans with wall thicknesses of between 0.7 and 1mm.
Syfer's latest EMI chips can replace up to three capacitors
Syfer’s balanced line X2Y three terminal chip range provides simultaneous line to line and line to ground filtering using a single ceramic chip. Such a device typically replaces two or three capacitors to deliver both differential and common mode filtering.
Solid state relays offer speed switching of AC or DC loads
Finder has announced the introduction of the 41.81 series of solid-state relays, which offer silent, high-speed switching of AC or DC loads, to meet the need for relays that operate reliably at rapid machine cycle rates, with minimum maintenance and without incurring mechanical wear. The 41.81 series is aimed at designers and system integrators of automation and processing equipment, including mechanical handling, assembly and filling machines, a...
picoChip launches lowest cost, lowest power femtocell design
picoChip today launched the PC7300, a complete femtocell hardware reference design that combines the industry’s lowest system costs and power consumption with the fastest possible time to market. Based on the field-proven PC3xx picoXcell family of femtocell devices, the PC7300 cuts bill of materials (BoM) costs to under $50 and requires less than 5W total power, making it the only femtocell solution on the market today capable of being integrat...
Silicon Labs' Broadcast Audio ICS Streamline Design Of Wheel-Tuned, Digital-Display Radios
Silicon Laboratories has introduced a multi-band radio receiver IC solution that will modernize wheel-tuned radio products with digital displays. Based on a patented low-IF digital architecture, the Si484x receivers offer unmatched integration in CMOS, reducing radio component count by more than 70 percent. The new receivers dramatically shrink bill-of-materials (BOM) and PCB area requirements in applications such as tabletop and portable radios,...
