Würth Elektronik launches a product family of GNSS modules which is unique in several respects: The Elara line represents some of the smallest GNSS modules on the market — both with and without an integrated antenna. For sophisticated navigation tasks, the Erinome series uses all four global navigation satellite systems at top speed: GPS, GLONASS, […]
Tiny temperature sensor handles wide -40 to 125°C range
The WSEN-TIDS temperature sensor from Würth Elektronik measures just 2.0 x 2.0 x 0.5 mm but offers a wide range of applications. Its accuracy in the measuring range -40 to 125°C is ±0.5°C, while in the range -10 to 60°C it goes down to ±0.25°C. Applications extend from PCB temperature monitoring and system monitoring for […]
BLE modules include antenna, encryption technology, six configurable I/O pins
Würth Elektronik announced the Bluetooth Low Energy 5.1 module Proteus-III and the proprietary version Thyone-I. The modules, measuring only 8 × 12 × 2 mm, with integrated antenna, encryption technology and six configurable IO pins, are based on the Nordic Semiconductor nRF52840 chipset. They can be used for IoT and M2M applications, for example, to […]
MEMS-based absolute pressure sensors target altimeter apps
Würth Elektronik presents a very compact MEMS-based (Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems) absolute pressure sensor: The 2.0 x 2.0 x 0.8 mm sized WSEN-PADS measures pressure in the range between 26 and 126 kPa. Its output data rate can be selected between 1 and 200 Hz. The sensor contains an ASIC (application-specific integrated circuit) and a temperature sensor. […]
Solderable seals sport high elasticity for use with surface-mount components
With WE-SMGS, Würth Elektronik offers solderable seals for surface mounting. The WE-SMGS consists of a temperature-resistant foam material, which combines the conductive seals with high elasticity. After compression, they then return to their original shape. The layer surrounding the heat-resistant foam is made of copper weave with tinning. It facilitates the soldering process in the […]
LAN transformers for industrial Ethernet interfaces
Würth Elektronik eiSos is expanding its LAN range with WE-LAN AQ. The LAN transformer for the elevated requirements in the industrial sector is characterized by excellent electrical parameters that can be reproduced in this new series. This enables particularly powerful Ethernet communication interfaces to be set up whose top quality can also be guaranteed in […]
RGB LEDs target accent/decorative lighting, optical displays, industrial apps
Würth Elektronik announced the WL-SFTW and WL-SFTD series of new RGB LEDs that are ideal for accent and decorative lighting, optical displays as well as industrial applications. Thanks to their PLCC contacting design, the two series of individually controllable LEDs are ideally suited for SMT assembly and reflow soldering. The WL-SFTW series offers three different […]
Development kit promotes fast migration to USB Type-C format
With the USB Type-C Development Kit from Würth Elektronik eiSos, those looking to take advantage of the vastly expanded range of options offered by USB Type-C and USB Power Delivery in their projects have a convenient and immediate solution at hand: built from proven USB-Type C technology from STMicroelectronics, Würth Elektronik’s USB Type-C Development Kit […]
SMT double choke targets dc/dc converter apps
Würth Elektronik eiSos has announced the WE-MCRI double choke with molding technology. With its soft saturation characteristics, a WE-MCRI is suited for DC/DC converter applications. WE-MCRI consists of two identical round wire-windings compacted in a metal powder material. The double chokes for SMT assembly with outstanding electrical power and improved EMC performance are extremely compact […]
Step-down 0.6 to 5.5 V converter targets battery powered applications
With the MagI³C-VDMM (Variable Step Down MicroModule), Würth Elektronik eiSos expands its product series of power modules with high power density, very few external components and outstanding electromagnetic compatibility. The step-down converter with variable output voltage is a particularly compact solution in a LGA-6EP package (dimensions 3.2 × 2.5 × 1.6 mm). The input voltage […]
