Common-mode chokes optimized for high-speed interface noise suppression
Murata has released two automotive common mode choke coils intended for noise suppression in high-speed interfaces that use Serializer/Deserializer (SerDes) on Power Over Coax (PoC). Since this application requires a higher current compared to conventional differential interfaces, the DLW21SH391XQ2 and DLW21PH201XQ2 were developed specifically to handle a range from 300mA to 500mA. With sensor nodes becoming more compact, […]
Silicon capacitors with low ESL/ESR optimized for power distribution networks
Murata has announced its extended product offering for the mobile and high-performance computing (HPC) markets with the launch of its latest silicon process technology to fabricate silicon capacitors with a density of 1.3µF/mm². The devices’ extremely low ESL and ESR support the highest performances of new power distribution networks (PDN) that require low impedance over a wide […]
PDUs support 240/415Vac 3-phase power distribution
Gateview Technologies announces its support of 240/415VAC 3-Phase WYE rack configurations with its new PowerLok 8700-8800 Series Rack Power Distribution Units (rPDUs). These next-generation PDUs address the increasing adoption of 415VAC 3-phase power as data center operators seek to maximize efficiency while ensuring uptime for their mission-critical equipment. By increasing the voltage of power-distributed IT equipment, transformer […]

USB Type-C receptacle delivers 60 W power in vertical, SMT package
CUI Devices’ Interconnect Group announced the continued expansion of their power-only USB Type C receptacle line with the introduction of a vertically-oriented model. The UJC-VP-3-SMT-TR joins the existing 60 W UJC-HP-3-SMT-TR and 100 W UJC-HP-G-SMT-TR, which both feature horizontal, surface-mount packages. By removing the data transfer pins, these USB Type C receptacles are a more cost-effective solution for designs were charging or […]
Reed relays feature long life, rugged construction
Teledyne Relays announced the availability of four new reed relay product families, all offering extremely long life of up to 1 billion cycles, ideal for applications where high reliability is essential. The new product lines complement the already broad array of rugged switching solutions the company has been supplying for more than 60 years. Reed relays […]
Aluminum electrolytic caps sport screw terminals, high current ratings
TDK Corporation presents the EPCOS aluminum electrolytic capacitors B43706* and B43726* series with screw terminals. The new components are designed for rated voltages between 400 V DC and 500 V DC and cover a capacitance range of 820 µF to 15,000 µF. A special feature is the high-rated current capability of up to 56.1 A […]
Isolated buck converters boast wide input voltage range of 4 V to 48 V
Optimized for isolated buck regulator designs, the STMicroelectronics A6986I and L6986I DC/DC converter ICs have a wide input-voltage range and low quiescent current to ensure robust and energy-efficient operation in automotive and industrial applications up to 5W. The isolated buck topology drastically lowers the bill of materials in systems that require a regulated non-isolated primary voltage and one […]
Tiny, surface-mount dc-dc converters designed for high-voltage apps
Murata has announced the availability of its MGJ2 series, a new line of surface mount DC-DC converters. There are six models of these lightweight units each having a 2 W power rating and they are supplied in a compact, low-profile form factor modules measuring just 19.49mm x 14.99mm x 4.39mm dimensions. Available in 12 V […]
