High voltage power supplies meet high energy applications
Keithley Instruments has introduced two high voltage power supplies optimised for high voltage device and materials testing and high energy physics and materials science research. The Model 2290-5 5kV Power Supply and Model 2290-10 10kV Power Supply are well suited for high voltage breakdown testing of power semiconductor components.
RF limiters provide alternative to GaAs PIN-diode limiters
In Booth #512 at EDI CON 2014, Peregrine Semiconductor plans todebuts its new line of UltraCMOSRF power limiters, including PE45140 and PE45450 slated for release in May. The company claims that itspower limiters represent the industry’s first turnkey, monolithic solutions to provide an alternative to discrete, PIN-diode limiters based on gallium arsenide (GaAs).UltraCMOS power limiters deliver simple, repeatable and reliable protection sui...
Ultra-small white LEDs for lighting applications
Designed as light sources for general lighting, including straight tube lights, light bulbs and ceiling lights, the TL1WK series of ultra-small chip scale package white LEDs have been announced by Toshiba. Compared to conventional 3.0x1.4mm package products, these LEDs can reduce the mounting area by up to 90%.
1W & 0.6W LEDs suited for general lighting applications
Twoseries of white LEDs, the 3.5 x 3.5mm lens package 1W type TL1L2 series, and the 3.0 x 3.0mm flat package 0.6W type TL3GB series, has been unveiled byToshiba Electronics Europe.Both have been developed as light sources for general lighting applications (including light bulbs, base lights, down lights and ceiling lights), street lights and floodlights.
Modules fulfil single, dual or multi-chip die design demands
Engineered for high frequency and pulse-load applications, theSOT-227 standard power modules have been launched byAmerica Semiconductor. The modulesmeet the requirements of single, dual or multi-chip die designs, the modules are offered in single pad (Pad A) and dual pad (Pad D and E) frame types.
GaN Systems appoints Senior Director
Charles Bailley has been appointed as the Senior Director, Technical Marketing, Asia, at GaN Systems. Effective March 3rd, Bailley’s appointment is part of the company’s strategy of increasing headcount worldwide to support early adopters of GaN-based devices as automotive, industrial and enterprise equipment manufacturers replace legacy silicon-based semiconductors with GaN power devices to achieve higher efficiency, power density an...
Transphorm present GaN industry sessions at AEPC
Firmly establishing the company at the forefront of GaN (Gallium Nitride) technology, Transphorm has announced that it will present two “Industry Sessions” presentations at APEC 2014. At last year’s APEC show, Transphorm introduced what they believe to be the first and only 600V JEDEC-qualified GaN-on-Silicon HEMTs (high electron mobility transistors).
Reconfigurable RFFE is industry’s first, claims Peregrine
Enabling 4G LTE platform providers and OEMs to save time and money by creating a single-SKU design for global markets, the UltraCMOS Global 1 reconfigurable RF front end (RFFE) has been introduced by Peregrine Semiconductor. The company have claimed that this is the industry’s first reconfigurable RFFE system.
Supply partnership enables ROIC manufacturing
Cypress Semiconductor as been chosen by L-3 Cincinnati Electronics to act as a supply partner, in order to manufacture its Readout Integrated Circuits (ROICs). Cypress’s proprietary process technology will be used by L-3 CE to design and manufacture ROICs for its cooled infrared detectors. L-3 CE selected Cypress based on the potential for significant manufacturing yield enhancements for large-die ROIC devices. .
Resistors for aerospace and military RF applications
Optimised for high-power aerospace, military, industrial, and telecom systems, the RCP series of thick film chip resistors have been announced by Vishay. Using a standard board mount, the Vishay RCP series resistors feature a power rating of 1W at +70°C. With active temperature control the thick film chip resistors can offer a power rating of up to 11W.
