Microchip announces high-resolution, low-power delta-sigma ADCs
Microchip announces a new series of low-power, high-resolution delta-sigma analogue-to-digital Converters. The MCP3422, MCP3423 and MCP3424 (MCP3422/3/4) ADCs provide 18-bits of resolution and consume only 135µA at 3V continuous conversion. The multi-channel devices have an integrated voltage reference, programmable gain amplifier and oscillator onboard, eliminating the need for external components, providing a smaller overall design footprint a...
Microchip expands zero-drift operational amplifier portfolio for signal conditioning, instrumentation and portable sensor applications
Microchip has broadened its portfolio of zero-drift operational amplifiers with the debut of the MCP6V11 and MCP6V31 single amplifiers. Operating with a single supply voltage as low as 1.6V and a quiescent current as low as 7.5 µA, these ultra-high-performance devices offer some of the industry’s lowest quiescent current for the given bandwidth without sacrificing the optimal performance essential for portable applications in the cons...
Microchip's new SPI RTCC series in 10-pin package
Microchip has today revealed that it is expanding its stand-alone Real-Time Clock/Calendar portfolio with the new 10-pin, SPI MCP795XX family. These new devices offer many of the same features as the larger 14-pin MCP795WXX family, including superior timekeeping performance. Reducing overall component count in the system and eliminating the user programming costs for a serial ID make the MCP795XX RTCC family an ideal choice for the handheld, wire...
Microchip adds new high-density 8-bit Microcontrollers to the eXtreme Low Power (XLP) family
Microchip announces two new high-density 8-bit microcontrollers (MCUs) which combine XLP technology for eXtreme Low Power consumption with 128 KB Flash programme memory and 4KB RAM, providing designers with space to implement application-specific code.
Microchip expands low pin count, enhanced mid-range 8-bit PIC microcontroller family
Microchip Technology announced the latest additions to its Enhanced Mid-Range core 8-bit PIC microcontroller (MCU) family—the peripheral-rich, low pin count PIC12F(LF)1840 and PIC16F(LF)1847. Featuring 7 KB and 14 KB of on-chip Flash memory, respectively, and up to 1 K RAM, the new devices are the highest-memory PIC® MCUs in 8- and 18-pin packages.
High-Voltage LDOs from Microchip
Microchip announces MCP1790 and MCP1791 high-voltage linear regulators (LDOs). With a continuous 70 mA output, the ability to operate at a continuous input voltage of up to 30V and load-dump protection up to 43.5V, the new LDOs are ideal for automotive and industrial applications. They also feature low quiescent current, low shutdown current and ceramic capacitor stability, which enable smaller, ultra-efficient designs at lower costs.
Non-Volatile, Quad Digital Potentiometers Deliver Static Current Consumption of 5 Microamperes (maximum)
Microchip announces the MCP4341, MCP4342 (MCP434X), MCP4361 and MCP4362 (MCP436X) quad digital potentiometers. The 7- and 8-bit, non-volatile devices feature an SPI interface and static current consumption of just 5 microamperes (maximum). They are specified for operation from – 40° C to 125° C and are available in space-saving packages as small as 4mm x 4mm QFN, making them ideal for consumer and industrial applications, such as power-supp...
