Texas Instruments introduced a new family of low-noise DC/DC switching regulators with integrated ferrite-bead compensation. The TPS62912 and TPS62913 offer low noise of 20 µVRMS for frequencies ranging from 100 Hz to 100 kHz and ultra-low output-voltage ripple of 10 µVRMS...

LED-driver circuits can be dimmed by applying a variable duty cycle (pulse-width modulation, or PWM) to the LED. PWM exploits LED behavior: At higher current levels, the LED’s light output is higher for a given level of power dissipation...

Infineon Technologies broadens its level-shift EiceDRIVER™ portfolio with a 1200 V three-phase gate driver. It is based on the company’s unique silicon-on-insulator (SOI) technology...

Toshiba Electronics Europe announced the TCR3RM series of low noise ultra-compact low dropout voltage regulators. Constructed in a plastic DFN4C package measuring 1.00 mm × 1.00 mm × 0.38 mm, the TCR3RM series comprises 32 product variants with fixed single output voltages...

The simple circuit design lets you measure all components of a current flowing in a dc servo motor. The rectified output of the circuit uses ground as a reference, so you can measure the output by using a single-ended A/D converter...

Ampleon announced the BLP2425M10S250P, a 250 W RF power transistor for solid-state cooking and industrial, scientific and medical (ISM) applications in the 2400 MHz to 2500 MHz frequency band...

Melexis has unveiled the MLX91805 smart tire sensor to help OEMs prepare for the forthcoming extension of mandatory tire-pressure monitoring to include commercial vehicles, and to enable future generations of smart tires...

Portable battery-powered devices often spend most of their life in standby mode, in which the quiescent current of an internal boost converter continuously bleeds the battery. The quiescent current during standby can be larger than the actual load current...

Diodes Incorporated announced two highly integrated synchronous buck converters that simplify circuit design in automotive power systems with its Power Good output and its innovative EMI mitigation for noise-sensitive applications...

Micro Crystal introduces the new RV-3032-C7 Real-Time Clock Module, which offers the world’s best time accuracy across industrial temperature range at ultra-low current consumption...
