Hall Effect sensors provide stable BOP/BRP and ultra-low power consumption

November 27, 2018 By Aimee Kalnoskas Leave a Comment

Diodes Incorporated announced the AH1911 and AH1921 digital Hall Effect sensors, which combine market-leading stable operating and release points (Bop and Brp) with ultra-low power operation. The 3rd generation devices will respond to either polarity of magnetic field and feature a ‘hibernating clock’ system to reduce average current consumption to 1.6µA at 3V supply. A wide operating […]

Reducing ringing or reflections by controlling impedance lines

May 1, 2018 By Janet Heath 1 Comment

controlling impedance lines

What is a controlled impedance line? For one thing, the term has to do with Printed Circuit Board (PCB) traces and layouts, which get more complex with higher frequency signals. Generally, you need not worry much about controlling impedance in traces unless you are working with signals at or above 50 MHz. However, most of […]

OR’ing MOSFET controller supports power supplies up to 400V

April 13, 2017 By Aimee Kalnoskas

Extending the capability to support redundancy power systems with rail voltages up to 400V, the ZXGD3112N7 active OR’ing MOSFET controller introduced by Diodes Incorporated, builds on a successful design employed in previous 40V and 200V devices. A low turn-off threshold voltage enables very low RDS(on) MOSFETs to operate as ideal diodes, providing a highly efficient […]
