  RECOM has extended its low power DC/DC portfolio with the R0.5ZX and R1ZX series. The R0.5ZX and R1ZX are based on the 2kVDC isolated low profile R1SX SMD series but include an internal linear regulator to give a precise, load independent and low noise output.

Teledyne LeCroy has launched its 3-Phase Power Analysis software package, which brings 1-phase and 3-phase static and dynamic power analysis to its HDO8000A, HDO6000A and WavePro HD 12-bit High Definition oscilloscopes. With the 3-Phase Power Analysis software package, R&D engineers can now use Teledyne LeCroy’s 12-bit-resolution oscilloscopes to better understand complex power conversion system and control behaviours and hasten power conversion system-design refinements.

B2B customer requirements in the medical area are being met by Conrad Business Supplies with TRACO POWER’s open-frame, switching power supply series TPP 15 and TPP 30 which offer 15W and 30W output respectively. Each series comprises eight models with input voltages ranging from 85 to 264VAC and 120 to 370VDC and output voltages ranging from 3.3 to 48VDC.

  Vicor Power Systems new line of VITA 62 compliant power supplies are designed for 3U Open VPX systems and achieve high efficiency and high power density in a rugged, conduction-cooled chassis.

XP Power has introduced a series of rack mount high voltage DC power supplies able to supply up to 60kV. Aimed at laboratories and OEMs, the EY series of 1,200W high voltage power supplies feature flexible embedded controls with low ripple and noise. They are air insulated, fast response units with tight regulation and extremely low arc discharge currents.

International specialist in the fields of electromagnetic compatibility and power quality, Schaffner, has announced the introduction of the new AC line reactor series RWK 3044 and RWK 3062. RWK 3044 and RWK 3062 are designed for 400 and 690VAC power networks, and provide impedance of four and two percent respectively. 

This week at the 2019 International Solid-State Circuits Conference (ISSCC2019), imec will be announcing its radar transceiver designed as an efficient, low cost solution for presence detection in smart building solutions. The power consumption of the radar is below 1mW, which is 100 times lower than other solutions, and is capable of detecting even micro-movements from human respiration, up to a distance of 15 metres.

A 60V TrenchFET Gen IV n-channel power MOSFET in the 6.15mm by 5.15mm PowerPAK SO-8 single package has been introduced by Vishay Intertechnology. Designed to increase the efficiency of power conversion topologies, the Vishay Siliconix SiR626DP offers 36% lower on-resistance than previous-generation devices while delivering the low gate charge and output charge.

The new entries in the extensive DCM family from Vicor are available in the 3623 (36x23mm) ChiP (Converter housed in Package) with an unrivaled power density of 1,032W/in3. The new 80W DCM ChiPs, feature a wide-input voltage range of 9-75V and are available with nominal output voltages of 12V, 24V, 28V and 48V, with a voltage regulation range of ±1%.

The Consumer Electronics Show (CES) has wowed gadget fans and tech heads for the last half a century, and each year the event demonstrates the rapid progression of consumer electronics and technology. Here, Michele Windsor, Global Marketing Manager at Accutronics, has explored some of the highlights from CES 2019 and how they underline the growing importance of battery technology.
