When a power MOSFET is switched on or off in a switched-mode power supply (SMPS), parasitic inductances cause ground shifts, which can lead to uncontrolled switching of gate driver ICs. Sometimes it may even result in electrical overloading of power MOSFETs and failure of SMPS. Infineon Technologies offers the 1-channel low-side gate driver ICs 1EDN7550 and 1EDN8550 in order…
Molex introduced LumaLink MPO Optical Trace Cable Assemblies intended to be used in data center rack frames and cable trays.
LumaLink Optical Trace Cable Assemblies incorporate high-density MPO connectors and full illumination of the entire cable to allow advanced cable management. In addition, with the cable’s…
STMicroelectronics has introduced two STM8 Nucleo development boards, allowing developers to use the 8-bit microcontrollers with the same ease of access and extensibility already proven with the STM32 Nucleo development boards.
By using the formula that has helped countless STM32 embedded projects, the STM8…
On semiconductors released a new System-in-Package (SiP) Module RSL10, extending its Bluetooth® 5 Radio Family. The RSL10 SIP module comprises a built-in antenna, RSL10 radio, and all the other required passive components in one complete, miniature solution. It is certified with the Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG); the RSL10 SIP significantly reduces time-to-market…
RECOM introduced new encapsulated 5W power supply modules which operate up to an impressive +90°C. These modules accept input voltage lines of up to 305VAC and offer peak power capability up to 6W, making them ideal for Industry 4.0, IoT and smart household applications requiring features that go beyond the industry standard.
