Sponsored 8th April 2022 Accurate next-generation simulations for rapid prototyping of power electronic designs Find out more Nexperia’s new advanced electrothermal models for MOSFETs accurately represent both the static and dynamic characteristics of the device. A powerful tool which provides design engineers with the capability of accurate circuit and system level simulations to assess the electrical, thermal and EMC performance before committing to build a prototype.

Sponsored 11th April 2022 Safely limiting high inrush currents in 10-30VDC applications Read more The BICKER BE-DCEB10A provides reliable protection against high inrush currents that occur when a DC load is switched on and can damage the power supply or trigger fuse elements. For input voltages of 10-30VDC, the compact PCB module limits the inrush current to approx. 12A during the switch-on moment. The maximum load current in nominal operation is 10A. Equipped with practical screw terminals, the BICKER BE-DCEB10A with a footprint of only 63.9x40.3mm is designed for flexible and space-saving system integration.

Power 11th April 2022 2.4-V to 5.5-V Input, 6-A thin step-down power module with integrated inductor in 3.5-mm x 4-mm QFN Read more The TPSM8286xA device family consists of 4-A and 6-A step-down converter power modules optimized for small solution size and high efficiency. The power modules integrate a synchronous step-down converter and an inductor to simplify design, reduce external components, and save PCB area. The lowprofile and compact solution is suitable for automated assembly by standard surface mount equipment.
