Converters are compact for power conversion in chipsets and FPGAs
Two converters are the first in a family of I2C controllable EZBuck regulators, announced by Alpha and Omega Semiconductor. The 4.0A AOZ2231CQI-01 and the 8.0A AOZ2233CQI-02 provide a compact, efficient power converter solution for next-generation chipsets and FPGAs used in high-end TVs, set-top boxes, data storage systems, servers and other embedded systems, says the company.
Powering renewable energy companies
Renewable energy companies are being urged to reconsider their supporting electrical infrastructure. The call comes from REO UK, who is advising businesses to invest in its RE-GEN CNW957 harmonics filter. Designed to eliminate Pulse-Width Modulation (PWM) frequencies to protect the electrical infrastructure, the filter also increases the efficiency of the drive by improving power quality.
Let's go green with trendy battery designs for e-bikes
In China, the green and low carbon lifestyle is becoming increasingly popular and is also being promoted by the Chinese government. One of the topics of this year's 28th China International Bicycle Fair is therefore the 'Green Lifestyle'. In an open e-bike exhibition hall especially for this industry, the BMZ Group will enrich the 'let's go green' theme with its trendy battery designs for e-bikes. BMZ will be presenting the integral V9 ...
