Ceramic disc capacitors offer capacitance of 2nF
A series of radial-leaded high voltage single layer ceramic disc capacitors in compact sizes has been unveiled by Vishay. Delivering high capacitance values of 2nF, Vishay Roederstein’s HVCC series capacitors offer guaranteed load life performance of 1000 h at 125 % rated voltage and +105 °C.
Power electronics component evolution at PCIM
Global supplier of electronic components, KEMET, will showcase its KONNEKT, Flex Suppressor, DC-Link film and magnetics latest technologies to address the demanding power needs of fast-moving market sectors including wide-bandgap, vehicle electrification and power supply efficiency at this year’s PCIM Europe.
Thickness of three-terminal multilayer ceramic capacitors reduced
Taiyo Yuden has announced the launch of its 1005-size threeterminalmultilayer ceramic capacitor A3K105BBJ106MR (1.0x0.5x0.5mm, with height as the maximumvalue, capacitance of 10μF, and rated voltage of 4.0V).Three-terminal multilayer ceramic capacitors, which have a lower ESL than the popular two-terminal multilayer ceramic capacitors, can reduce impedance in the high frequency range and contribute to the stableoperation of ICs that are driven...
Nanopower high-input voltage supervisor with manual reset
From Texas Instruments, the TPS3840 family of voltage supervisors or reset ICs can operate at high voltage levels while maintaining very low quiescent current across the whole VDD and temperature range. TPS3840 offers best combination of low power consumption, high accuracy and low propagation delay (tp_HL= 30 µs typical).
FPGAs use AI for soft switching
AI can be used to implement soft switching and minimise power conversion switching losses, argue Derek Kroes and Bruce Renouard, Pre-Switch
Power capacitors cut assembly time, aid reliability
Said to reduce assembly time by 60%, a series of LVAC power capacitors featuring ESTAspring, a lever-operated spring terminal connection, has been introduced by Vishay. The ESTA PhMKP series increases connection reliability in high vibration applications.
Comparing analogue and digital MEMS microphone interfaces
MEMS microphones have been steadily expanding opportunities and functionality into a wide range of devices, now adding communication and monitoring capabilities into the mix. Voice-enabled navigation devices and digital home assistants are examples of such devices driving this change and are helping to boost the huge growth in voice-controlled electronics. By Bruce Rose, Principal Applications Engineer, CUI Devices
Highly integrated USB-C buck charger reduces size by 30%
Designers of portable Li-ion battery-powered electronics now have a simplified and more flexible way to add a USB Type-C (USB-C) charging system to their products with the MAX77860 3A switch-mode charger from Maxim Integrated Products.
Paving the way for power management
As our world becomes increasingly reliant on technology, the demand for power will only continue to increase. Following a vibrant APEC 2019, held in California in March, Electronic Specifier Editor Joe Bush caught up with Anoop Chadaga, Product Marketing Manager, Texas Instruments, to find out what the company’s focus was at the show.
LED driver family eliminates audible noise with control method
Allegro MicroSystems has announced its latest generation of advancedLED backlight drivers,the A8060x family.The device family is designed with an innovative and patented Pre-Emptive Boost (PEB) control, eliminating noise that is typically audible.PEB control in the A8060x family substantially reduces Voutripple and eliminates the common problem of audible noise from ceramic output capacitors during PWM dimming, while also requiring less output ca...
