Dual-axis gyroscope/3-axis accelerometer carries digital SPI interface
Murata has developed a 3rd generation of MEMS 4DoF (four-degrees-of-freedom) and 5DoF inertial sensors that realize high-performance for safety-critical automotive applications. The SCC3000 series components combine a high-performance angular rate and accelerometer sensor components. It consists of versions of an X-axis, Z-axis, and XZ-axis angular rate sensors and a 3-axis accelerometer sensor based on Murata’s […]
Eighth brick 600-W converter targets telecom apps
Murata today introduced its DRE-11.4/53-L48 eighth brick Intermediate Bus Converter (IBC) from Murata Power Solutions. The product series addresses the growing power requirements of networking and telecommunications infrastructure equipment by delivering the highest efficiency in the industry at this power output level and small package size. It is ideal for applications that require a highly efficient, 600W […]
Common mode choke coils optimized for CAN FD vehicle networks
Murata has introduced the wire-wound common mode choke coil (CMCC) DLW32SH101XF2, the first CMCC to support DCMR Class 3, fulfilling the IEC62228-3 requirement for use in CAN FD next-generation automotive networks. Mass production of this product will begin in August 2019. In the automotive industry, technologies that control basic automobile behavior are advancing rapidly with […]

MEMS 32.768 kHz resonator billed as world’s smallest
Murata has a tiny 32.768 kHz MEMS resonator (the WMRAG series), which is expected to make a significant contribution to reducing the size and power consumption of IoT devices and wearable devices. Demand is growing for compact electronic components that consume less electrical power for use in digital devices for IoT and wearable applications where […]
Digital step attenuators come in 2-bit, 5-bit, 6-bit or 7-bit configurations
AT IMS, pSemi Corporation (formerly Peregrine Semiconductor), announced the expansion of its digital step attenuator (DSA) portfolio with a family of value, high-performance DSAs. The four digital step attenuators feature industry-leading attenuation accuracy at an entry-level price point. “pSemi has a long, successful history of digital step attenuator development,” says Jim Cable, CTO at pSemi. “Our team […]
Line filters are designed to replace discontinued Murata Components
Premier Magnetics announces the in-stock availability of its PMCU Series of common mode line filters designed for switching power supply applications. Offered in both standard winding (for higher efficiency) and sectional winding (for improved high-frequency performance), the PMCU line models provide a direct cross for over three dozen PLA10ANxxx and PLA10ASxxx EMIFIL series components recently […]
Power-supply noise, Part 2: What is differential mode noise?
Part 1 looked at the basics of noise, especially concerning power supplies. There are two noise sources which are not as obvious to many engineers as noise that results from the switching action of the power supply: differential mode noise and common-mode noise. These two noise modes have different causes and thus different solutions Q: […]
Power-supply noise, Part 1
“Noise”—perhaps nothing worries design engineers as much as the implications of this single five-letter word. There are good reasons for this worry. Noise is often unpredictable; may come from internal and somewhat controllable sources, or external impossible-to-control sources; it can affect performance accuracy and consistency; it can cause products to not meet their target design […]
