CUI Inc announced the addition of its first four contact, surface mount, non-isolated converter to its dc-dc converter line. The ultra-thin VXO78-500-M DC-DC Converter features a 500mA output current, no-load input current as low as 0.2mA and a wide -40 to +85°C temperature range. This regulated dc-dc converter offers a wide 4.75 to 36 Vdc input voltage range, short-…
Vishay Intertechnology introduced the ThermaWickTHJP series surface mount thermal jumper chip that features aluminum nitride substrate with high 170 W/m°K thermal conductivity and it can reduce the temperature of the connected component by 25%. This temperature reduction helps the designers to increase the power handling capability of these devices or extend their useful…
Researchers at the University of Michigan have developed a tiny, low-cost, and highly precise gyroscope to aid self-driving cars and drones to remain on track even in the absence of a GPS signal. The research was supported by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency.
Named the Birdbath Resonating Gyro (BRG), the ultra-high-precision MEMS…
A team of engineers, computer scientists, and biologists have developed ‘backpack’ computers to track tiny animals that divide their time between flying around in the sky and huddling together in caves and hollow trees. Aptly named ‘Broadly Applicable Tracking System or BATS’, the wireless network will enable researchers to keep a track of tiny wild animals like birds,…
Littelfuse has expanded its SPXI series in-line 1500VDC solar fuses with new 35 to 60 amperage models that were designed to be integrated into in-line assemblies within a wire harness. The new solar fuses protect photovoltaic (PV) installations from overloads and short circuits to avoid damages in the solar panels. You can check the SPXI series datasheet to check the…
Melexis has introduced the ASIL-ready MLX91377 Hall sensor IC that can operate at ambient temperature up to 160°C and suitable for safety-critical automotive systems such as electric power-assisted steering (EPAS). By combining high linearity with excellent thermal stability, including low offset and sensitivity drift the MLX91377 supports accurate, dependable torque sensing…
Amidst the global pandemic on coronavirus outbreak, researchers and scientists around the world have been working towards finding affordable and accurate solutions to help people heave a sigh of relief. A team of researchers at Carnegie Mellon University and other institutions have come up with an early version of an app that can help detect COVID-19 by analyzing voice.…
