mimoOn GmbH, the software defined radio (SDR) software company, today released the mi!Spectrum LTE Femtocell Scheduler preliminary specification. The high-efficiency mi!Spectrum Femtocell LTE Air Interface Scheduler is fully compliant with the new Femto Forum APIs for air interface scheduling and network monitoring, and is optimized for use in low cost Femtocells, in uncoordinated high volume deployment scenarios.

Spectrum Advanced Specialty Products has added an extrusion process to its current manufacturing methods of ceramic tubular capacitors. The addition of this process enhances Spectrum's design flexibility with an increased custom product offering. Spectrum is now capable of producing sizes of up to 1 in length as well as diameters of ½ and larger. Spectrum's extruded ceramic tubular capacitors are ideal for applications such as EMI filtering for...

Atmel announced a new family of single-key touch controllers for the portable device market. This new family offers designers power consumption of below 17 µA for next-generation portable touch devices, including power buttons, hearing devices, consumer toys and proximity sensors. The embedded low-power features in Atmel's new family of single-key touch controllers also enable longer battery life for these portable devices.

Atmel today announced it is collaborating with H&D Wireless to deliver an IEEE802.11b+g Wi-Fi solution for Atmel's 32-bit AVR microcontrollers. In this collaboration, H&D Wireless will provide the SPB104 Wi-Fi extension board which is easily connected to the AVR32 UC3 evaluation kits through the SD card socket. This collaboration results in the industry's most power efficient Wi-Fi solution, with an overall power consumption five times lo...

NXP today announced the TDA20142 – the first satellite silicon tuner addressing the challenging requirements of both free-to-air (FTA) and operator satellite set-top box (STB) applications. The TDA20142 also reduces system cost through competitive pricing and reduced bill of materials (BoM). The satellite silicon tuner will be showcased at IBC 2010 in Amsterdam.

The RSP-3000 series from Sunpower is a 3000W enclosed type switching power supply with power factor correction (PFC) function - for the growing demand of high wattage applications. Featuring 15.6W/ in3 of extreme high power density, RSP-3000 series can provide full output power up to 50°C.

Maxim Integrated Products has introduced the MAX19505/MAX19506/MAX19507, a pin-compatible family of dual-channel, 8-bit, 65/100/130Msps ADCs. Offering the industry's lowest power consumption, the devices consume a mere 43mW (MAX19505), 57mW (MAX19506), and 74mW (MAX19507) of analog power per channel. Additionally, these ADCs achieve nearly ideal 8-bit dynamic performance, with a 49.8dBFS SNR and 69dBc SFDR at 70MHz.

Maxim has introduced the MAX11080, a high-voltage, 12-channel battery-protection IC for high-cell-count lithium-ion (Li+) battery stacks. The first stackable fault monitor on the market, this device provides redundant cell monitoring to prevent Li+ batteries from exploding (thermal runaway). Up to 31 MAX11080s can be daisy-chained together to monitor as many as 372 cells. This capability prevents cascading electrical failures and eliminates the e...

Panorama Antennas, the specialist RF antennas company, today launched the next generation of In-Building antennas. Designed to support a multi-service, multi-operator wireless environment, the CMWB-038-6 operates on the full wireless spectrum, from 380MHz through to 6GHz in a single antenna.

Providing design engineers with high stability, high temperature devices for demanding environments, TT electronics IRC has developed a series of high temperature thick film chip resistors. Designated the HTC Series, the chip resistors feature an operating temperature to +200°C and are available in standard chip sizes including 1206, 2010 and 2512 packages.
