To address the increasing demand for large-scale digital instrument clusters among all class of vehicles, Renesas Electronics extends the scalable range of the R-Car family of system-on-chip (SoC) devices with the introduction of the R-Car E3 to realize high-end 3D graphics on the largest class of displays used for automotive instrument clusters – 12.3 inches, 1,920 x 720…

Temperature measurement is one of the important functionality for Internet of Things (IoT) and personal computing devices, thus developers need temperature sensors that reduce power consumption and lower system voltage in applications. To address this need, released five new 1.8V temperature sensors, including a five-channel temperature sensor with standard lead spacing. The…

Vicor Corporation announced a new 3-phase, AC-DC converter module (“RFM”), capable of delivering 10kW of regulated 48VDC in a power tablet configuration measuring 9.4 x 5.9 x 0.6in (24 x 15 x 1.5cm). The RFM™ provides a power-factor-corrected, regulated, and isolated DC output with integrated filtering and built-in fault protection for redundant operation…

SEGGER released a new beta version of its cross-platform development software "Embedded Studio". The new version focuses on program size reduction, achieving an amazing 5 to 12% on typical applications over the previous version, and even higher gains compared to GCC tool chains. These savings are the result of the new Link-Time Optimization (LTO), combined with SEGGER’s…

Renesas Electronics released two new radiation-hardened precision current source ICs - ISL70591SEH and ISL70592SEH, designed to provide current excitation to the more than 300 resistive sensors that monitor the health of a satellite’s subsystems. These devices are the first current source ICs in Renesas’ line of space products, and are ideally suited for telemetry, tracking…

STMicroelectronics introduced the next-generation STLINK-V3 probe for programming and debugging STM8 and STM32 microcontrollers, adding enhancements to further increase flexibility and efficiency. Now comes with mass-storage support, a virtual COM port with multipath bridge, and three-times faster write performance, the STLINK-V3 saves development…

ROHM has launched a new branding “MUS-IC” for its solutions for high-fidelity audio products, which includes a range of D/A converter ICs (DAC ICs), optimized for high-fidelity reproduction, and power supply products.

 

The increasing adoption of high-resolution audio sources has strengthened the demand for audio…

Maxim Integrated new 12-switch matrix manager MAX20092 allows designers of automotive matrix lighting and adaptive driving beam LED applications to migrate to higher current devices while reducing solution size and improving flexibility. The MAX20092 IC minimizes thermal issues associated with LED matrix lighting applications by offering the industry’s lowest internal…

Creating cloud-connected applications sometimes require significant time and resources for embedded designers to develop necessary expertise in communications protocols, security and hardware compatibility. Developers often overcome these challenges with large software frameworks and Real Time Operating Systems (RTOS), which results in increased development time, effort,…

After the success of the recently released RAC05-K/277 5W AC/DC series, RECOM now added new output options to this product series. The RAC3.5-K/277 versions supply up to 3.5W on the PCB, while the RAC05-K/277/W wired versions simplify installation.

 

The 3.5W and wired 5W modules perform reliably in harsh environments…

Vishay Intertechnology released four new 100V and 120V TMBS (Trench MOS Barrier Schottky) Rectifiers that offer up to 20 mV lower forward voltage than previous-generation devices. Available in TO-220AB package, the Vishay General Semiconductors V30100CI, V30120CI, V40100CI, and V40120CI rectifiers offer current ratings of 30A and 40A.
