Bus converter modules first to utilise ChiP platform
The first module in the BCM series of ChiP bus converter modules has been released by Vicor. Utilizing Vicor's exisiting Converter housed in Package (ChiP) power component platform, the device supplies 1.2kW at 48V, with 98% peak efficiency and 115W/cm3 power density. Claiming 4x the density of competing solutions, the device is designed to provide efficient, high voltage DC distribution infrastructure in datacenter, telecom, and industrial appli...
Power Block achieves high efficiency at lower cost
Sitting between a PoL design and that of a complete non-isolated buck converter module, the OKLP-X/35-W12-C is the latest addition to Murata's OKLP range of “Power Block” products. The 35A Power Block follows the recently released 25A version, and is essentially a non-isolated buck converter without a PWM controller.
µModule regulator powers FPGAs, ASICs and MPUs
Configurable as a single (16A), dual (12A, 4A or 8A, 8A), triple (8A, 4A, 4A) or quad (4A each) output regulator, the LTM4644 step-down µModule regulator has been announced by Linear Technology. With this flexibility, system designers can use one compact µModule regulator to meet the voltage and load current requirements of FPGAs, ASICs and microprocessors.
Renesas appoints Industrial & Communications General Manager
Michael Hannawald has been appointed to the position of General Manager of the Industrial & Communications Business Group (ICBG) at Renesas. Previously Senior Director of the ICBG, Hannawald moves into the position with immediate effect, taking over from the retiring Holger Zielke.
Geomagnetic sensor offers accurate absolute orientation
Suitable for applications requiring absolute heading or orientation data, including augmented reality and location tracking, Willow Technologies have introduced the RM3100 industrial grade geomagnetic sensor suite. Claimed to have the highest resolution and lowest-noise of any geomagnetic sensor in the market, it provides accurate measurement of signals of less than 10 nT (this is less than 0.1% of the Earth’s magnetic field).
FPGA-based system accelerates IP and subsystem prototyping
Designed to accelerate complex IP and subsystem prototyping, the HAPS Developer eXpress (HAPS-DX) from Synopsys is an extension of their HAPS FPGA-based prototyping product line. The prototyping system includes customized synthesis and debug software to speed prototype bring-up and streamline the transition from individual IP blocks to full system-on-chip (SoC) validation. The system provides a seamless prototyping solution from IP to full SoC fo...
Streaming HD
Designed around wireless peer-to-peer technology, Miracast could be much more than a simple cable replacement. By Dr. Iain Hunter, System Applications Engineer, Wireless Connectivity Solutions at Texas Instruments.
DCD’s HDLC/SDLC controller aims telecommunication
The latest latest soft IP Core, the DHDLC, has been announced by Digital Core Design. Designed to control HDLC/SDLC transmission frame and optimized for great variety of 8, 16 and 32-bit MCUs, the DHDLC is a technology independent design and can therefore can be implemented in both ASIC and FPGA.
Buck regulator offers switching frequencies to 4 MHz
Offering high programmable switching frequencies to 4 MHz, the Siliconix SiP12108 signals an expansion of the exisiting microBUCK family of integrated synchronous buck regulators from Vishay. Providing designers with a complete high-current solution in only 180 mm², the regulator features high- and low-side power MOSFETs in a space-saving 3 mm by 3 mm QFN-16 package.
Powervation's PV3012 used in Murata's new DC/DC module
The PV3012 digital controller from Powervation is being used in a new DC/DC module from Murata. Designated the OKLF-T/25-W12N-C, the new module is a non-isolated, DC/DC converter delivering a maximum of 25 A at an output of 1.2 V, when operating up to 70°C with a 200 LFM airflow. Ideal for powering the latest FPGAs and ASICs in netwoking and computing, the adjustable outputs of the OKLF-T/25-W12N-C provide precision regulation from 0.69 V t...
