600W AC/DC power supplies are compact & efficient
Roal Electronics will present the DDP600 series of extremely compact and efficient AC/DC power supplies at electronica 2014 in Munich, and Compamed 2014, in Düsseldorf. The power supplies have been specifically designed for industrial, medical and SSL market segments.
Analog Devices Introduces Industry’s First Analog Fault Detection and Protection Switch Family for Analog Input/Output Modules in Harsh Environments
Analog Devices, Inc. today introduced a family of fault detection and protection, low/ultra-flat Ron switches: the ADG5412F, ADG5413F, ADG5412BF and ADG5413BF. By identifying when a channel is in a fault, this innovative switch technology removes the need for additional hardware and software error-detection schemes, leading to an improvement in system uptime.
Layered production cuts height & price of DC/DC converters
Using a layered substrate manufacturing process, the NXE1, 1W DC/DC converter is the first of a planned family of DC/DC converters from Murata. A transformer is embedded in the substrate, which saves space compared with conventional DC/DC converters.
Dialog Semiconductor PMICs Power LG Electronics’ Latest Application Processor and Smartphones
Dialog Semiconductor plc today announced that its custom-developed, configurable D2260 power management IC (PMIC) will power LG Electronics’ recently launched NUCLUN Octa-Core application processor.
AMP Consortium select Intersil's digital DC/DC controllers
The founding members of the Architects of Modern Power (AMP) Consortium have incorporated three of Intersil's digital DC/DC controllers into digital POL DC/DC converters. High current loads are provided by the converters for high-end FPGAs and ASICs used in densely populated power supplies in servers, storage equipment and basestations.
Reliable switching mode power supply suits smart metering
Fairchild has launched the world’s first 1000V integrated power switch, offering the industry’s highest breakdown voltage in a single package for designing reliable switching mode power supplies for smart meter, appliance and industrial systems. The FSL4110LR integrated power switch eliminates the need for external components found in competing solutions, enabling power designers to easily meet their time to market and reduce BOM.
Fairchild’s New 1200V Smart Power Modules Deliver Amazing Thermal Performance for Industrial Motor Control
Fairchild has announced its 1200V Motion SPM 2 modules for high-voltage industrial applications. With motors responsible for more than 40% of the world’s power consumption, the new Smart Power Modules match Fairchild’s vision of making the world a cleaner, smarter place by enabling simple and reliable design, high thermal performance and full protection for systems using large 3-phase inverter motors for high energy efficiency.
Wilkinson power divider provides in phase power splitting or combining
Knowles Capacitors announces a Wilkinson power divider that is designed to provide in phase power splitting or combining over a broad bandwidth in low power applications. This is achieved by application of precision thin film fabrication with integrated resistors, coupled with high permittivity ceramic materials, to provide a high performance and repeatable design solution.
Multi-channel driver & inverter IPMs
ON Semiconductor has further strengthened its portfolio of products for motor control applications with the introduction of two solutions, in A5.225 at electronica, for a variety of industrial, white goods and consumer applications.
ICs slash BoM with integrated feedback circuits
By integrating primary and secondary feedback circuits, the InnoSwitch IC family is set to revolutionise switch-mode power supply design, says Power Integrations. The ICs use FluxLink safety-isolated communication technology, which combines primary - and secondary-switcher circuitry to reduce component count.
