Linear Technology has introduced the LTM4616, a complete dual DC/DC uModule regulator system in a tiny surface mount package. The LTM4616 can regulate either two voltages ranging from 0.6V to 5V at up to 8A each, or one output voltage at up to 16A by sharing current from each output in a multi-phase configuration. The LTM4616’s versatility is extended by its ability to operate from either two different input supply rails ranging from 2.375V to ...

Linear Technology Corporation introduces a low-power 16-bit no missing codes, 80Msps analog-to-digital converter (ADC) that dissipates only 89mW, less than half the power of competing 16-bit solutions. The LTC2259-16 provides a pin-compatible upgrade to the existing LTC2259-14 family of 14-bit low power ADCs, offering the lowest power dissipation for a single 16-bit ADC with double data rate (DDR) CMOS/LVDS outputs. In addition to offering signif...

Linear Technology Corporation introduces the LTC2758, the industry's first high performance dual, 18-bit, current output digital-to-anaolg converter (DAC). The LTC2758 offers accurate 18-bit DC specifications, including ±1LSB (max) INL and DNL over temperature. In addition to excellent DC specifications, the LTC2758 offers fast settling of 2.1µs and low 0.4nV•s (3V), 2nV•s (5V) glitch impulse, making it possible to produce higher frequency,...

Linear Technology has announced a 16-bit, 105Msps ADC that establishes a simple, new benchmark for digital communication between high speed ADCs and FPGAs. The LTC2274's new high speed 2-wire serial interface greatly reduces the number of data input/output (I/O) lines required between a 16-bit ADC and the FPGA from 16 CMOS or 32 LVDS parallel data lines to a single, self-clocking, differential pair communicating at 2.1Gbps, freeing up valuable FP...

Linear Technology has announced the LTC6400-20 and LTC6401-20, ADC drivers that achieve unprecedented performance on a single 3V supply. These fully differential amplifiers include gain setting resistors, simplifying the challenge of driving the highest performance high-speed ADCs. The LTC6400-20 provides a fixed gain of 20dB with -93dBc third-order intermodulation distortion (IMD3) performance and noise figure of 6.5dB for a 140MHz input frequen...

Linear Technology announced the LT3015, a 1.5A negative low dropout linear regulator featuring fast transient response, low noise, and precision current limit. With its wide input voltage range of -1.8V to -30V and adjustable output voltage from -1.220V to -29.5V, the device’s common emitter NPN power transistor design requires only a single supply and enables a low dropout voltage of 310mV (typical at full load). Output voltage noise is only 6...

Linear Technology has announced the LT4180, a Virtual Remote Sense DC/DC controller that eliminates the remote sense wires required to compensate for the voltage drop in cables, wires and circuit board trace runs. Voltage drops in wiring and cables that cause load regulation errors are usually corrected by an additional set of sensing wires. The LT4180 continuously interrogates the line impedance and corrects the regulator's output voltage. The d...

The new programmable subminiature Spread Spectrum Timing (SST) ICs of the PL671 series offered by PETERMANN TECHNIK are revolutionary in price, performance and variability . The customer is able to build up very easily extremely cheap high performance Spread Spectrum Clocks up to 200MHz with high resolution Spread Steps including 4 independent programmable configurations. Take a crystal or a referency input signal together with IC and the low cos...

What is said to be the smallest SMD quartz crystal in the world is included in PETERMANN-TECHNIK’s product range with the type designation SMD01612/4. The tiny crystal available with dimensions of 1.6 x 1.2 x 0.3 mm covers the frequency spectrum 32 ~ 52 MHz in the basic sound range. The narrowest frequency tolerance at 25°C is +-10 ppm, the best possible temperature stability over a temperature range of -10/+60°C +-8 ppm.

Spread spectrum quartz oscillators in 7 x 5 and 5 x 3.2 mm ceramic cases are becoming increasingly obsolete. The PL671 series programmable spread spectrum oscillator ICs produced by PhaseLink / USA and represented exclusively in Germany by PETERMANN-TECHNIK from Kaufering are much smaller, less expensive and thus far better than the fixed frequency SST quartz oscillators in 7 x 5 and 5 x 3.2 mm ceramic casing.
