Array of power talent set for APEC 2019 in Anaheim
Power IC, passive component, diode, and MOSFET technologies for a wide range of applications will all be showcased by Vishay Technology at the Applied Power Electronics Conference and Exhibition (APEC) in Anaheim (March 17-21). Vishay Siliconix power ICs on display at APEC 2019 will include the SiC9xx microBRICK family of high efficiency DC/DC buck regulators.
Wide voltage switches designed for optimised industrial applications
Diodes Incorporated has announced its AH35xx series of omnipolar Hall effect switches. These devices feature a wide operating voltage range of 3-28V, enabling them to support all of the 3.3, 5, 12, and 24V rails commonly found in industrial, office, and home appliance applications.
Three-level, three-phase SiC AC-to-DC converter reference design
This reference design from Texas Instruments provides an overview on how to implement a three-level, three-phase, SiC-based AC/DC converter with bi-directional functionality. A high switching frequency of 50kHz reduces the size of magnetics for the filter design and as a result a higher power density.
Prototyping platforms shorten system Integration
A partnership between Arrow Electronics and Shiratech has created the Body Cam 1.0 and ICOMOX development platforms for image streaming and industrial condition monitoring, respectively. Both leverage Shiratech’s platform-on-module know-how to solve hardware design and integration challenges, and let users begin application development immediately.
Duo unite to pave way for cheaper 3D prosthetic arm
The latest version of a 3D-printed prosthetic arm was unveiled at the recentConsumer Electronics Showin Las Vegas by Arrow Electronics and customerUnlimited Tomorrow. The prosthetic is designed to be cheaper and more accessible for children, who require new devices as they grow.
Accurate system for guiding autonomous vehicles
With built-in inertial sensors the new INS1000 high performance dual band RTK INS (Real-Time Kinematic Inertial Navigation System), has been announced by ACEINNA, for construction, agriculture and automotive applications. The INS1000 embeds ACEINNA’s nine degree-of-freedom inertial sensor technology to achieve Automotive Dead Reckoning performance in GNSS challenged environments.
Automotive-grade wireless charging solution
The development of an automotive wireless charging solution with integrated NFC communication has been announced by ROHM. This solution combines ROHM’s automotive-grade (AEC-Q100 qualified) wireless power transmission control IC (BD57121MUF-M) with STMicroelectronics' NFC Reader IC (ST25R3914) and eight-bit microcontroller (STM8A series).
What is IEC 60034-23 and how does it impact me?
Have you heard about IEC 60034-23? If the answer was no, fear not. Here, Dr. Martin Killeen of the AEMT (Association of Electrical and Mechanical Trades) outlines the requirements of the international repair, overhaul and reclamation of rotating equipment standard IEC 60034-23:2018, and highlights how it impacts on both the repair provider and the end user.
Engineering with pinpoint accuracy
While many engineering functions can get away with some degree of tolerance, certain applications need precision and accuracy to the highest order. This can only be carried out with the correct measuring components, as Marcus Schneck, CEO of norelem, explains here.
NFC Reader IC adopted for automotive wireless charging design
STMicroelectronics hasannounced that its automotive NFC Reader IC (ST25R3914) and its automotive 8-bit microcontroller (STM8AF) have been chosen for the Qi-compliant automotive wireless charging reference design from Rohm. Contactless communication based on NFC is already in extensive use for functions such as mobile payment by smartphone and in recent years, NFC use has been rapidly widening from mobile devices to industrial equipment, IoT devic...
