Linear Technology has introduced the LTC2309, a 12-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC) that communicates via an I2C-compatible 2-wire interface with 14ksps throughput rate. This flexible ADC features an 8-channel integrated multiplexer to measure eight single-ended input channels, four differential channels, or combinations of both.

Analog Devices is expanding its family of digital isolation products with a series of four-channel devices that isolate both data and power. Each device integrates ADI’s iCoupler digital isolation technology and ADI’s proprietary isoPower dc-to-dc converter, providing both isolated power and isolated signal channels within a single package.

Tuning its proprietary iCoupler digital isolation technology to meet the reliability and quality needs of emerging electric-hybrid vehicles, Analog Devices, Inc. (ADI) is introducing a family of digital isolators designed to operate in today’s electrically challenging automotive environment. Unlike the relatively low-voltage signals powering most in-car entertainment, safety, and power train systems, hybrid-vehicle batteries can operate at volt...

Nu Horizons announces the availability of a range of point of load DC-DC regulators. Linear Technology's new generation of POL regulator modules include all the circuit components encapsulated in such a tiny size that they resemble a surface mount IC. These high-end point-of-load regulators are complete solutions containing the DC-DC controller, MOSFETs, inductor, input and output bypass capacitors and compensation circuitry in only 225mm2, maxim...

NEC Electronics Europe has introduced 22 new 16-bit NEC Electronics Europe has introduced 22 new 16-bit All Flash microcontrollers (MCUs) for compact, low-power, battery-operated and sensor-enabled systems. Based on NEC Electronics’ high-performance 16-bit 78K0R CPU core, the new 78K0R/Kx3-L MCUs offer very low power consumption to extend battery life, and more on-chip integration to help reduce the size and cost of battery-driven and sensor-en...

The FRANK Source-Measure-Multiplex-Unit (SMMU) is said to bring to the laboratory and test-bench what a Scanner-Printer-FAX-Copier-Multifunction-Unit brought to the office. The SMMU-05 combines Voltage Source / Current Sink with Digital Multimeter (Voltage / Current / Resistance / Capacitance / Diode-Test) and Multiplexer for up to 128 Test-Points and many additional functions.

SL Power Electronics has announced a family of 75W external switch-mode power supplies that comply with Level IV Energy Star requirements – the highest rating currently attainable. Marketed under the Ault brand name, the PW156 is a single output family available in four voltages with power output up to 75W.

LDRA has enhanced the LDRA tool suite to meet the CERT C Secure Coding standard. With this compliance, LDRA tool suite will be better able to identify security vulnerabilities and to enforce security standards—a necessary protection at a time when software applications are coming under increasing external attack.

SCHURTER’s TA35 series breakers are available in 1-, 2- or 3-pole arrangements. The rocker-actuating switch can be supplied either with or without illumination, in several colors and with various legends or customer specific symbols.

Renesas Technology has announced the development of the RX600 Series microcontrollers (MCUs), re-defining performance capabilities of CISC (Complex Instruction Set Computer) based MCUs. The new devices, scheduled for sample shipment in the second quarter of 2009, will be the first 32-bit products to incorporate the next-generation ‘RX’ CPU architecture and offer CPU performance of up to 200MHz, with the industry’s fastest single-cycle flash...
