MORNSUN has introduced a series of ultra-compact size AC/DC converters called LSxx-13Bxx, that can cover 5W,8W,10W segments. The new series is an extension of previous LS series, with this new series the LS family can now provide up to 15W power range. The new series is housed in a compact vertical and 90° bent pins SIP packages, the new open frame LSxx-13Bxx series can be…

MORNSUN has introduced a new series of dual-channel digital isolator IC called SCM37xxA that can insulate the electronic subsystems interacting with each other during data transmission. These isolators can protect the subsystems from noise and high voltages so that they can be widely used in the medical, industrial, civil, and military industries. The new isolator IC…

RECOM has introduced the RPMH-0.5 series of non-isolated DC/DCs in a standard 12.19 x 12.19 x 3.75mm DOSA-compatible thermally-enhanced low profile LGA package. These devices can operate in the input range of 4.3 V to 65 V, this makes them suitable for devices operating on nominal 5, 12, 24 or 48V rails. With 0.5A output, five trimmable fixed outputs are available: 3.3V (+10…

Diodes Incorporated has introduced the AP62600, a Synchronous DC-DC buck converter that delivers up to 6A of output current from a supply voltage of 4.5V to 18V. The converter can be used for point-of-load (POL) conversion in applications such as TVs, monitors, white goods, home appliances, consumer electronics, and large-scale integrated circuits. The device incorporates…

Designers of automotive self-driving systems can now enable higher-speed autonomous driving through the industry’s fastest and smallest Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) ICs from Maxim Integrated Products. Compared to the closest competitive solution, the MAX40026 high-speed comparator and the MAX40660/MAX40661 high-bandwidth transimpedance amplifiers enable 10mph (15km/h…

RECOM has released the new RS 12-Z Series of DC/DC converters in the industry-standard SIP-8 Package. The devices offer a full 12W output in the footprint of 2cm². These devices feature 4:1 inputs of 9 – 36V or 18 – 75V with surge ratings to 50V and 100V respectively, and regulated single outputs of 3.3, 5, 12, 15 or 24V, all trimmable +/-10% and with remote on/off control…

Toshiba Electronic Devices has added the TB67H451FNG Motor Driver IC to its lineup of low power consumption brushed DC motor driver ICs. The new IC comes in the popular pin-assignment HSOP8 package and features automatic return after over-current detection. Over-current detection is a safety function that prevents damage to the IC by turning off the output when the output…

Texas Instruments has announced a new DC/DC Buck Converter Module called TPSM53604, which is claimed to be the smallest 36V, 4A power module in a quad flat no-lead (QFN) package. The new DC/DC buck module’s small footprint (5mm x 5mm) allows the engineers to reduce the size of their power supply by 30% with reduced power loss up to 50% when compared with other similar…

Renesas Electronics has announced that its ZMOD4410 gas sensor is at the heart of the Safera Sense smart cooking sensor to measure if the airborne concentration of the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and CO2 in the users’ kitchens are at unhealthy levels. ZMOD4410 was chosen by Safera because of its excellent accuracy, high reliability, and low power operation for smart…

Texas Instruments has expanded its portfolio of temperature sensors with the new TMP61, TMP63, and TMP64 Linear Thermistors. The new Thermistors delivers up to 50% higher accuracy than negative temperature coefficient (NTC) Thermistors. The high accuracy allows the Thermistors to operate closer to the thermal limits, which helps the engineers to maximize the performance and…

Researchers at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have invented a new smart diaper embedded with a moisture sensor that can alert a caregiver when a diaper is wet. When the sensor detects dampness in the diaper, it sends a signal to a nearby receiver, which in turn can send a notification to a smartphone or computer.

The sensor consists of…

Broadcom Inc has introduced a new Wi-Fi 6E client device called BCM4389, the new device extends Wi-Fi 6 standard and supports the upcoming 6 GHz band with wide 160MHz channel bandwidth. This will double Wi-Fi speeds and cut latency in half compared to the existing Wi-Fi 5 technology. Wi-Fi 6E can deliver improved performance in crowded environments with advanced roaming…
