Torex Semiconductor has launched the XC9263/XC9264 series of synchronous step-down DC/DC converters with an internal 18V-operation driver transistor and an output current of 500mA. A shift from LDO to DC/DC is gaining strength in recent years in order to reduce standby power consumption. Power consumption also is being reduced in digital audio/visual equipment, large household appliances and industrial equipment and the demand for low power consu...

Torex Semiconductor has launched the XC9141/XC9142 series of 0.8A step-up DC/DC converters with a load disconnection function. The demand for internal-driver, step-up DC/DC converters in a small package for use in portable devices has been increasing in recent years. There is also an increasing demand for products equipped with an input–output disconnection function (load disconnection function) to prevent malfunctioning during standby, and...

The XC9266 series of 6A synchronous step-down DC/DC converters from Torex feature an internal 5.5V operation driver transistor and are equipped with the company’s HiSAT-COT fast transient response control.

Torex Semiconductor has launched the XCL223/XCL224 series of micro DC/DC converters with an integrated coil and control IC. These are the 'world’s smallest' class of 0.4A/0.7A type converters according to the company. The XCL223/XCL224 series are ultra-small (outer dimensions: 2.25x1.5x0.75mm) step-down micro DC/DCconverters with an integrated coil and control IC.

Torex Semiconductor has launched the XC6230 series of 2A high-speed multifunction LDO regulators with adjustable output. The XC6230 series are small and fast multifunction LDO regulators with a maximum output current of 2A and an adjustable output voltage and current limit value.

Suitable for applications that require a low quiescent current, such as wearable devices, healthcare devices, BLE devices and energy harvesting, the XCL210 series of step-down DC/DC converters has been introduced by Torex Semiconductor. The ‘micro’ DC/DC converters feature an integrated control IC and coil.

Two series of step-down DC/DC converters with a 500mA integrated coil and control IC have been released by Torex Semiconductor. Supporting an ambient operating temperature of 105°C, the XCL221 and XCL222 series of ‘micro' DC/DC converters are suitable for applications such as wireless devices, wearable devices that require high efficiency.

  Two series of DC/DC converters, claimed to be the world’s smallest in the 1.0A continuous output current category, have been released by Torex Semiconductor. The XCL219 and XCL220 series of ‘micro' DC/DC converters feature an integrated coil and control IC.

  Equipped with unique COT control, the XC9259 and XC9262 series of step-down, synchronous DC/DC converters have been released by TOREX SEMICONDUCTOR. Housed in the ultra-small LGA-8B01 package, these devices incorporate the company’s HiSAT-COT fast transient response control.

 The XC9257/XC9258 series of 1.0A step-down, synchronous DC/DC converters, equipped with unique COT control, has been released by TOREX SEMICONDUCTOR.

Torex Semiconductor has developed a lineup of compact, accurate voltage detectors with sense pin isolation and an external delay capacitance. The XC6132/XC6133/XC6134 series devices feature a delay function and sense pin isolated external hysteresis adjustment, as well as an internal 100V surge voltage protection function.

The XC6190 series of push button reboot controllers, which are designed for system reboot by means of a signal input from external buttons, has been released by TOREX SEMICONDUCTOR. The timer reset ICs supply a reboot signal to the system when 'L' voltage is input into both the SW1 pin and the SW2 pin for the required time (reboot delay time) using two switches (physical buttons).

The XCL219/XCL220 module from Torex Semiconductor is designed to minimise unwanted radiated noise or EMI, making it suitable for sensitive RF applications. With its integrated coil, the XCL219/220 achieves a significant reduction in radiated noise across all frequency bands, when compared with a conventional DC/DC circuit with an external coil.

In A6.280 at electronica 2014, Torex Semiconductor will present the company's first PFM-only step-down DC/DC converter that has been specifically developed for ultra-low power applications. The XC9265 series consumes just 0.5µA during operation and is therefore suitable for applications that run from batteries for long periods of time.

Designed to prolong battery life in single-cell Li-ion battery applications where the output voltage is within the battery voltage range, the XC9306 converter has been released by Torex Semiconductor. When discharged, a Li-ion battery's operating voltage declines to the point that it can no longer power it's load. The synchronous buck-boost converter boosts the output voltage of the battery, extending it’s usable life.
