Stretch Hides Mystery Technology

What would you call this thing? If you had some sort of microprocessor chip that could transmogrify its own instruction set, compress video, do network encryption, recognize bad guys’ faces, talk to DDR3 memory, and manage a cluster of disk drives… what would you call it?

If you’re Stretch Incorporated, you call it the S7. This all-singing, all-dancing device is the third generation of Stretch’s difficult-to-categorize chips, and it costs about $10 to $30, depending on which options you want and how many you buy. … Read More → "Stretch Hides Mystery Technology"

Isolated Monolithic Flyback Regulator Simplifies Design & Eliminates Optocoupler

MILPITAS, CA – August 2, 2010 – Linear Technology Corporation announces the LT3575, an isolated monolithic flyback switching regulator that significantly simplifies the design of an isolated DC/DC converter. No opto-isolator, third winding or signal transformer are required for feedback since the output voltage is sensed from the primary-side flyback signal. The LT3575 operates over a 3V to 40V input voltage range, has a 2.5A power switch and delivers up to 14 Watts of output power, making it well suited for a wide variety of industrial, medical, telecom, datacom and automotive applications.
