Mixed Signal/Analog

Temperature sensors are one of the most important kinds of physical sensors. Many different processes, including those we encounter in everyday life, are regulated by temperature. Its measurement allows indirect determination of other physical parameters, such as matter flow rate, fluid level, and others. GreenPAK can make analogue signal conversion more effective. 

Now available at Digi-Key is Texas Instruments' TMUXHS4212, a high-speed bidirectional passive switch in mux or demux configurations.

Dialog Semiconductor has announced the SLG47105, its first motor drive CMIC that delivers the unique benefits of both configurable logic and configurable analogue with high voltage outputs, all encapsulated within a tiny 2x3mm QFN package.

The TLA2518 analogue-to-digital converter (ADC) from Texas Instruments is now being shipped by distributor Mouser Electronics.

Teledyne e2v is set to further expand its portfolio of Digital-to-Analogue Converter (DAC) ICs and through availability of an accompanying evaluation platform, engineers will be able to begin applying it to their design projects soon. The company is about to start initial sampling of the EV12DD700 dual-channel DACs, which are capable of operating up into Ka-band frequencies.

Spectrum Instrumentation has extended the capabilities of its popular LXI-digitisers by adding a powerful mixed-mode testing option. This new option is available on four different models, all featuring 8 analogue input channels that synchronously sample signals at rates up to 5 MS/s, 20 MS/s, 40 MS/s or 125 MS/s with 16-bit resolution.

X-FAB Silicon Foundries SE, the leading analogue/mixed-signal and specialty foundry, has announced the availability of new medium-voltage transistors – complementing the company’s leading 180nm BCD-on-SOI technology platform (XT018). The new medium voltage devices cover voltages from 12 to 32V. With that customers now have access to a complete portfolio of different voltage options – covering a ten to 200V voltage range.

The TLV320ADC5140 is a Burr-Brown high-performance, audio analogue-to-digital converter (ADC) that supports simultaneous sampling of up to four analogue channels or eight digital channels for the pulse density modulation (PDM) microphone input. The device supports line and microphone inputs, and allows for both single-ended and differential input configurations. 

The AD7386 successive-approximation register (SAR) analogue-to-digital converter (ADC) from Analog Devices is in stock at Mouser Electronics. Single-ended and function-compatible with AD7380 and AD7381 ADCs, the 16-bit AD7386 features a throughput rate of 4 megasamples per second (MSPS) and a tiny 3 × 3mm LFCSP package.

Dialog Semiconductor has recently announced its Configurable Mixed-Signal IC (CMIC) for the automotive industry, the SLG46620-A. In today’s advanced automotive market, manufacturers are required to implement the latest safety, comfort and self-driving features which demand an ever-growing number of Integrated Circuits (ICs). Current solutions aimed at supporting these functions are limited by discrete implementations and standard ...
