15 Mbps photocouplers deliver low threshold current for harsh industrial applications
Renesas Electronics Corporation announced three new 15 Mbps photocouplers designed to withstand the harsh operating environments of industrial and factory automation equipment. The trend toward higher voltage, compact systems is driving stricter International safety standards and eco-friendly solutions that require smaller ICs with lower power consumption. The RV1S9x60A family meets this need with best-in-class low […]
16-channel current driver integrates 4-bit decoder for satellite applications
Renesas Electronics Corporation announced a new radiation-hardened 16-channel current driver with integrated 4-bit decoder for reducing the size, weight and power (SWaP) of satellite command and telemetry systems. The ISL72814SEH integrates the decoder, input level shifter, and 16 current driver arrays in a single monolithic IC. The device allows satellite manufacturers to significantly increase system […]
Rad-tolerant PWM controller/GaN FET driver first to come in a plastic package
Renesas Electronics Corporation announced the space industry’s first plastic-packaged, radiation-tolerant PWM controller and Gallium Nitride (GaN) FET driver for DC/DC power supplies in small satellites (smallsats) and launch vehicles. The ISL71043M single-ended current mode PWM controller and ISL71040M low-side GaN FET driver are ideal for isolated flyback and half-bridge power stages, and motor control driver […]
Rad-tolerant digital isolators provide 2.5kVrms of isolation and 600Vrms continuous voltage
Renesas Electronics Corporation introduced two plastic packaged, radiation-tolerant digital isolators that provide the highest isolation protection (2,500VRMS) from high voltage spikes in power supply stages and serial communications interfaces used in low Earth orbit (LEO) Small Satellites (SmallSats). Private “New Space” companies plan to launch thousands of SmallSats forming large constellations that operate in multiple […]
First USB-C combo buck-boost battery charger for mobile computing systems
Renesas Electronics Corporation introduced the industry’s first USB-C buck-boost battery charger to support both Narrow Voltage Direct Charging (NVDC) and Hybrid Power Buck-Boost (HPBB) charging for notebooks, ultrabooks, tablets, and power banks using the reversible USB Type-C connector cable. Through firmware control, the ISL9241 can switch between NVDC and HPBB modes, providing a low-cost and […]
Automotive-grade 100-V, 4-A half-bridge N-channel MOSFET drivers target hybrid powertrains
Renesas Electronics Corporation announced a new family of automotive-grade 100V, 4A half-bridge N-channel MOSFET drivers. The ISL784x4 family features three devices: the ISL78424 and ISL78444 with single tri-level PWM input for controlling both gate drivers, and the ISL78434, which has dual independent inputs that separately control the high-side and low-side drivers. The ISL784x4 half-bridge N-MOSFET […]
Implementing full digital power control for LDOs
Today’s power supplies require flexible power solutions and more digital control than a decade ago, especially in the server cloud computing market. The days of de-soldering resistors and capacitors to tweak a voltage control loop are long gone. Historically, digital power control started with a single-phase, point-of-load (POL) regulator with PMBus interface. Today, it has […]
Digital power modules target data center servers, networking equipment
Renesas Electronics Corporation announced a new family of encapsulated digital DC/DC PMBus power modules. The five RAA210xxx simple digital power modules offer advanced digital telemetry and performance, and are as easy to use as Renesas’ analog power modules. They are complete step-down regulated power supplies that deliver 25A, 33A, dual 25A, 50A, and 70A of […]
