Allegro MicroSystems announced the AMT49105, its newest ISO-26262 compliant N-channel power MOSFET driver. The AMT49105 simplifies motor systems designs and provides footprint reduction by integrating power analog systems requirements...
Allegro MicroSystems Introduces New ASIL-Certified BLDC System Basis MOSFET Driver
Frequency Quadrupler Enables Low-Frequency Measurements, Spans Up To Four Decades
The challenge in measuring low frequencies is that the counter gate time is often too short for the signal relatively long period. This non-critical circuit automatically multiplies an input single frequency times four to enable measurement of frequencies from 1 Hz to 40 kHz...
AKM releases ultra-low noise current sensor for audio system
AKM has developed ultra-low noise coreless current sensors for improving audio quality of large sized speakers such as subwoofers. The AK310x series is suitable for a system which controls voicecoil motion in speakers by current feedback...

Superior Flexibility of RS-485-Networking Transceiver from STMicroelectronics Simplifies Design, Saves Board Space and Bill of Materials
The STMicroelectronics STR485LV 3.3 V transceiver for RS-485 applications enhances design flexibility by providing an external pin to select 20 Mbps or 250 kbps communication and interfacing directly with low-voltage logic down to 1.8 V...
Op amp linearizes response of FET VCA
FETs find common use in VCAs (voltage-controlled amplifiers) and attenuators, in which the FET serves as a variable resistance. A control voltage applied to the gate sets the channel resistance and overall circuit gain. You frequently need to select individual FETs...
