Operation is over 3.6 to 28V, with reduced function up to 42V, and the drvices have been developed with functional safety in mind. “The device is developed compliant to ISO 26262, meeting all process requirements for ASIL-C, and hardware architectural metrics for ASIL-B according to ISO-26262-10:208E, clause 9”, the company told Electronics Weekly. Processing comes […]
HMI, the analogue and power management specialist, has launched its HL8518, a single-chip 80 mΩ high-side switch ideal for automotive applications needing power switch for low wattage lamp, high-side relays and valves, and general resistive, inductive, and capacitive loads. The HL8518 is a single-channel, high-side power switch with 80mΩ (typical) Rds(on) power FET. It combines […]
The wire wound, surface mount fixed inductors have a high Q value for low resistance and also have a high inductance for filtering high frequency noise. A spokesperson told Electronics Weekly that typical specifications include an operating temperature of -40°C to 125°C and a typical current rating of 300mA, inductance of 10μH. The typical self-resonant […]
April 30, 2024 — Diodes Incorporated recently launched a USB 2.0 signal conditioner, PI5USB212, that operates with a power supply voltage as low as 2.3V. Designed for use in notebooks, PCs, docking stations, cable extenders, TVs, and monitors, the PI5USB212 automatically detects a USB 2.0 high-speed connection. It also preserves signal integrity when driving long […]
Introduction Power electronics play a crucial role in modern electrical engineering, essential for efficiently converting, controlling, and managing electrical power within circuits. These components are designed to handle high voltages, currents, powers, and temperatures, making them vital for various industries. Within power electronics, components are broadly categorized into passive components, such as power resistors, diodes, […]
No permanent magnet, external or internal, is needed, and external magnetic fields are rejected. MLX92442 only requires a nearby electrically conductive object for triggering. It comes in either a through-hole single in-line package (flattened TO-92) or a surface-mount SO-8, and is activated by objects within ~1mm of its front surface so long as they are […]
More recently, physics-based reliability prediction has related failure rates of electronic assemblies to the magnitude of temperature change over an operational cycle (power-on, power-off, power-on…) and rate of temperature change, both of which are influenced by steady-state operating temperature. Electronics failures are often attributed to solder joint fatigue at the package-board interconnect. In some applications, […]
Dubbed AOZ1377DI, is can be used in both Sink and Source applications and it “offers features that significantly reduce voltage drop and power loss compared to back-to-back p-channel devices”, promises the company. Instead it uses a pair of internal drain-to-drain n-channel mosfets, whose gates are driven from a charge pump to a voltage above the […]
The HL5301WL01 integrates two unidirectional level shifters for the RST and CLK signals, a bidirectional level shifter for I/O, and ±8 kV electrostatic discharges (ESD) protection on all SIM card contacts. </ The HL5301WL01 device boasts several key features tailored for optimal performance and efficiency. With an impressively low quiescent current of only 0.3 μA, […]
