Wireless power transfer technology continues to grow
As wireless power transfer technology continues to mature and user awareness increases, the reliability and robustness of these wireless charging systems continues to improve.
Combining small size and high performance with non-magnetic properties
Johanson Manufacturing branded Variable Inductors, from Knowles Precision Devices, combine small size and high performance with non-magnetic properties. Inductors and variable inductors are necessary elements of many RF products. They are used for matching and loading low noise amplifiers, power amplifiers and mixers, as well as for providing frequency- selective resonant circuits in variable-frequency oscillators.
Bicycling Power Meter offers next-gen nanotech
The new up and coming cycling brand iQ2 has developed an all-new, cutting edge Power Meter offering performance-improving benefits and advantages that, until now, have only been affordable to pro cyclists—and those with deep pockets. This new next-gen cycling tool not only offers vastly improved performance over existing Power Meter options, but does so with breakthrough pricing starting at $199 versus others costing $400 to $1000 or m...
Battery shredding equipment reduces UK environmental impact
The first fully functioning battery recycling plant in Scotland which can handle up to 12000 tonnes of battery waste every year, is extending its dismantling lines to prepare for the disassembly of an increasing number of electric vehicle (EV) batteries (Li-Ion), as the uptake of electric vehicles increases across the UK.
Multiphase PMICs have high efficiency and small footprint
Renesas Electronics has announced three programmable power management ICs (PMICs) that offer the highest power efficiency and smallest footprint for application processors in smartphones and tablets: the ISL91302B, ISL91301A, and ISL91301B PMICs. The PMICs also deliver power to artificial intelligence (AI) processors, FPGAs, and industrial microprocessors (MPUs), and they are suitable for powering the supply rails in solid-state drives (SSDs), op...
Industrial computer platform expanded with more computing power
A number of new models have been added to HARTING’s industrial computer product to further its development into a universal modular platform to capture data, process it at the machine level, and exchange it in wireless and wired fashion.
Robust high efficiency DC/DC converters for railway applications
A new extensive family of cost-effective high-power density DC/DC converters has been unveiled by XP Power for railway traction, rolling stock, and harsh environment applications. Offering a wide selection of power handling capability from 50W up to 600W, traction battery voltages of 24, 36, 48, 72 & 110VDC are covered by the 50W, 110 VDC by the 100W, and 72 & 110VDC by the 300W and 600W converters.
Introducing a new series of power modules from ON Semi
In this video, ON Semiconductor will introduce new power modules - Q0 and Q2 series for solar inverters rated up to over 100kVA.
Laser diodes for material processing & laser cutting applications
The low noise LD15CHA, the newest addition to the Wavelength laser diode driver line, offers modulation bandwidth, and power for materials processing, industrial laser cutting, and laser diode bars / stacks. The small laser diode driver delivers 15A output current up to 28V. It meets laser compliance requirements from 3V with a single 5V supply, and up to 28V with an additional 30V power supply.
How to improve tab to terminal connections in battery packs
Battery packs have become an integral part of everyday life, powering a growing range of portable electronic devices, cordless power tools, energy storage, and hybrid and electric vehicles. By Geoff Shannon, Amada Miyachi America.
