ZMD has announced a family of 1, 2, and 3A current-mode synchronous buck DC/DC converter integrated circuits. The 1MHz ZMDI ZSPM401x product line comprises three families and 18 products: the ZSPM4011 1A family, the ZSPM4012 2A family, and the ZSPM4013 3A family. The ICs require only 4 external devi...

Rohm has announced the development of the BZ6A series of ultra-compact power supply modules that integrate an inductor, capacitors, and all the other components needed for power supply into a single package. The result is a device with the dimensions of 2.3mm×2.9mm×1mm.

The BZ6A series integrate...

Infineon introduced its new XMC4000 32-bit microcontroller family, which uses the Cortex-M4 processor from ARM. XMC stands for “Cross-Market Microcontroller” and means that, due to its configurability, the XMC4000 family is suitable for a wide range of industrial applications says Infineon. The XM...

Schurter’s FMAC SINE and FMAC SINE DCL series of sinewave output filters convert the voltage waveforms from frequency converters into low-distortion sinewaves for motor drives and power-engineering applications. The sinewave output filters are designed for use in 500 VAC systems with currents of 4...

Cree introduces the XLamp XB-D LED. The LED delivers twice the lumens-per-dollar of other LEDs, in a footprint of 2.45mm x 2.45mm. The device is 48 percent smaller than the XLamp XP package and ideal for lighting applications where high lumen density and compact light sources are required. Leve...

Infineon introduced a new series of TVS Diodes (Transient Voltage Suppression). The products improve system’s robustness against electrostatic discharge (ESD) events that can cause serious catastrophic or latent disturbances in consumer electronics products such as smart phones, tablets, eBooks and ...

IAR Systems announces that the IAR KickStart Kit for Texas Instruments Hercules RM48 MCU is released. The Hercules safety microcontroller platform has built-in hardware safety features, making it suitable for development of systems with high requirements on functional safety, for example within medi...
