MPU hosts MIPI CSI-2, traditional parallel camera interface
The embedded market has a need for a higher performing, yet lower power artificial intelligence (AI) solutions that can be deployed at the edge, where power consumption is often at a premium. AI solutions often require advanced imaging and audio capabilities which are typically found only on higher-performing multi-core microprocessors that, unfortunately, also consume much […]
New 65-W switch-mode supplies optimized for industrial, medical apps
Astrodyne TDI has released the new ASM65 series of power supplies that deliver up to 65W of regulated DC output for applications including healthcare, industrial equipment, and commercial electronics. As electronic equipment shrinks, the need for compact power supplies has gained importance. The new ASM65 switch mode power supply series was designed with space and […]
Compact eGaN FETs target high power density converter apps
Efficient Power Conversion Corporation expands the selection of low voltage, off-the-shelf gallium nitride transistors with the introduction of the EPC2066 (0.8 mΩ typical, 40 V) GaN FET. The low losses and small size of the EPC2066 make it the ideal switch for the secondary side of high power density 40 V – 60 V to […]
Wireless distributed battery management system reduces EV wire harnessing
Marelli expands its range of battery management technologies for electric vehicles with a new state-of-the-art Wireless Distributed Battery Management System (wBMS). This technology eliminates the wired physical connections typically needed in other Battery Management systems (BMS) architectures, allowing for greater flexibility, increased efficiency, improved reliability, and reduced costs, all crucial aspects of electric vehicles. Marelli […]
Dual-channel dc-dc controllers drive LED automotive headlamps
Infineon Technologies AG expands the LITIX Power family with the dual-channel, stand-alone DC-DC controller TLD6098-2ES. The controller is the first product that can drive a full LED headlamp by itself without an additional microcontroller. It can also operate the four standard LED front light functions: High Beam (HB), Low Beam (LB), Daytime Running Lights (DRL), […]
PCIe 3.0 packet switch addresses fan-out, multi-host connectivity
Diodes Incorporated announced the introduction of a PCIe 3.0 packet switch IC. DIODES PI7C9X3G1632GP provides flexible multi-port and lane width configuration, resulting in elevated levels of performance and availability. This will prove beneficial in systems dealing with AI/deep learning workloads, data storage equipment, the servers in data centers, wireless/wireline telecommunications infrastructure, and various forms of modern […]
Rad-hard P-FETs handle 22 A, 60 V
SSDI developed the SFL22P06S.5 to respond to a customer’s request for a 2N7624U3 replacement needed for a space application. This -22 A, -60 V P-channel MOSFET in the SMD.5 package has a low on-resistance of 60 mΩ max (-10 V, -10 A) and a low total gate charge of 7 NC type. This fast switching device […]
SMD inductors handle up to 400 V
ITG Electronics has introduced a high-voltage addition to its PQ108180H Series of Surface Mount Device (SMD) Inductors. Key to the high-voltage SMD Inductor’s success is the adoption of more robust design materials, which allow the unit to not only withstand higher voltages but also ensure a prolonged component lifespan. Part of a broader, company-wide effort […]
Touchless angle sensorssport IO-Link output interface
Novotechnik U.S. introduces the RFC4800 Series of touchless angle sensors measuring angular position up to 360°, revolution counter, and speed—without wear. The RFC 4800 is now available with an IO-Link output interface. Its serial communication protocol needs only three wires to transmit measured values and status information simultaneously. The status bit can signal a controller […]
