Powerbox, one of Europe’s largest power supply companies and a leading force in optimizing power solutions for demanding applications, announces the launch of a new series of power supplies for automotive applications and on-board Internet of Things (IoT). Based on a highly integrated components

TDK announced the introduction of the KMS-A series of single output, medically-certified 15W - 60W encapsulated power supplies. With a Class II input, the products require no earth ground connection, making them ideal for use in a range of medical, dental and home healthcare. They are also suitable

Intersil, a leading provider of innovative power management and precision analog solutions, announced the ISL78365 laser diode driver for automotive heads-up display (HUD) systems. The highly integrated device pulses four high intensity lasers up to 750mA for projecting full-HD color video onto

Implementing pack-side battery gauges in portable devices is now easier and more secure with the ModelGauge m5 portfolio of MAX17201/MAX17205 and MAX17211/MAX17215 from Maxim Integrated Products. Fuel gauging can be difficult because battery voltage varies with temperature and load, while coulomb-counting

Linear Technology introduced the LTC3896, a high-voltage inverting switching regulator controller that drives an all N-channel synchronous power MOSFET stage. Most low to medium power inverting DC/DC converters utilize a coupled inductor or transformer. However, the LTC3896 uses only a single inductor

Texas Instruments introduced the industry’s first 12-V, 10-A, 10-MHz series-capacitor buck converter that achieves more than 50 A/cm3 in current density, which is four times higher than any other 12 V power management component or solution available today. The unique topology of the TPS54A20

At this year's Intersolar exhibition KOSTAL is introducing two new functions for three-phase PIKO string and battery inverters. A new shadow management feature, part of the PIKO smart optimisation concept, ensures maximum yield from partially shaded PV systems, providing better flexibility. Especially

Lattice Semiconductor, a leading provider of customizable smart connectivity solutions, announced the industry’s first Lattice CrossLink programmable bridging device that supports leading protocols for mobile image sensors and displays. Systems with embedded cameras and displays often do not

Allegro MicroSystems announced a new quad DMOS full-bridge driver IC capable of driving up to two stepper motors or four DC motors. Each full-bridge output is rated up to 1.6 A and 40 V. The A5988 includes fixed off-time pulse-width modulation (PWM) current regulators, along with 2- bit nonlinear

Toshiba Electronics Europe has unveiled Schottky barrier diodes (SBDs) based on the company’s second-generation silicon carbide (SiC) semiconductor technology. These SBDs deliver current densities up to 50% higher than first generation devices and can handle significantly higher forward surge
