Mont-Saint-Guibert, Belgium – June, 2010 – CISSOID, the leader in high temperature semiconductor solutions, released their new STROMBOLI™  technology, a flexible and scalable reference design and demonstration boards for high temperature, high voltage isolated DC-DC converters which operate reliably and with high efficiency from -55°C to +225°C.

STROMBOLI™ can convert input voltages up to 400V into multiple, symmetrical if required, output voltages up to +/-25V. The galvanic isolation between input an outputs is at least 10 MW at 500V.

The STROMBOLI™ technology includes an Application Note, a Reference … Read More → "CISSOID Introduces STROMBOLI™"

MILPITAS, CA – June 21, 2010 – Linear Technology Corporation announces high reliability military temperature (MP) grade versions of the LTC3803/-3/-5 current mode flyback controllers in the tiny 6-pin ThinSOT™ package. These devices are specified and are 100% production tested over a junction temperature range of -55°C to 150°C. The input and output voltage ranges of LTC3803/-3/-5-based power supplies are limited only by external components, enabling wide-input-voltage and high-input-voltage applications commonly found in industrial, telecom, military and automotive settings.

The constant 200kHz or 300kHz … Read More → "Flyback Controllers Operate from -55°C to 150°C Junction Temperature"
