Vishay Extends 900-V to 2700-V Heavy Duty Capacitors for Power Electronics With New Capacitance Values Up to 2235 µF
Vishay is extending its heavy-duty Vishay ESTA HDMKP capacitors for power electronics with new capacitance and packaging options. HDMKP capacitors are available in six standard voltages from 900 V to 2700 V (dc). Previously offering capacitance values from 40 µF to 1100 µF, the series has now been extended to offer capacitance values up to 2235 µF, with a capacitance tolerance of ± 5 %.
Silicon Labs 5 KV Digital Isolators Offer Robust, Reliable Upgrade For Traditional Optocouplers
Silicon Labs announces a line of 5 kV digital isolators designed to replace traditional optocouplers in harsh application environments and systems powered from universal mains supplies. Silicon Labs' new 5 kV Si84xx digital isolators provide a smaller, faster and more reliable isolation solution than optocouplers without the wear-out mechanisms, aging effects or temperature dependencies that plague optocoupler-based designs. They also offer best-...
Two-Way Operation-Type SMD Detector Switches for Consumer and Car A/V Applications
With the SPVT series, ALPS ELECTRIC EUROPE GmbH offers a series of particularly small and flat two-way operation-type detector switches with dimensions of only 5.6mm x 6.5mm x 1.8mm (W x D x H). The surface-mountable devices are remarkable for their high reliability and long operating life of 100,000 switching cycles. Conceived as 1-pole 1-position switches, the SPVT series is rated for switching currents of 100µA at 3VDC or maximal 1mA at 5VDC ...
