Industry’s smallest regulated and isolated 9 W DC-DC converters offer 4:1 input range

March 24, 2017

March 23rd 2017 – XP Power today announced the ITZ series of compact regulated 9 Watt DC-DC converters. Believed to be the industry’s smallest 9 W DC-DC converters, the units accommodate an ultra-wide 4:1 input and are available with single and dual outputs. Packaged in an ultra compact metal cased SIP-8 package measuring just 21.9 x 11.2 x 9.6 mm (0.86 x 0.44 x 0.38 inches), the converters are up to 89 % efficient and have a power density of 44 Watts per cubic inch. With their high efficiency, no additional heat sink components or forced airflow is required, ensuring that the converter occupies the smallest footprint possible, a key criteria … Read More → "Industry’s smallest regulated and isolated 9 W DC-DC converters offer 4:1 input range"

Dual Differential Amplifier/ADC Driver Delivers 10GHz Gain Bandwidth with 1.1nV/?Hz Noise

March 24, 2017

MILPITAS, CA & NORWOOD, MA – March 22, 2017 – Analog Devices, Inc., which recently acquired Linear Technology Corporation, announces the LTC6419, a dual 10GHz gain bandwidth product differential amplifier with very low input voltage noise density of 1.1nV/?Hz, delivering outstanding SNR performance for wideband signal amplification. Additionally, the LTC6419 offers low distortion, providing 85dB spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR) at 100MHz while driving 2VP-P signals. Four external resistors set the differential gain of each amplifier, configurable from unity gain with frequency response beyond 1GHz, to gain of 100 with bandwidth of 100MHz, and up to a maximum gain of 400 with bandwidth of 30MHz. … Read More → "Dual Differential Amplifier/ADC Driver Delivers 10GHz Gain Bandwidth with 1.1nV/?Hz Noise"

STMicroelectronics Simplifies Access to Digital-Power Advantages with Configurable High-Efficiency Interleaved Power-Factor Correction Controller

March 24, 2017

Geneva, March 23, 2017 – The STNRGPF01 SMPS (Switched-Mode Power Supply) controller from STMicroelectronics delivers the flexibility and high efficiency of digital power without the technical challenges and time to develop custom DSP (Digital Signal Processor) code. ST will showcase a 3kW industrial SMPS evaluation board featuring the STNRGPF01 at its booth at APEC 2017, March 26-30, in Tampa, Florida.

In high-power applications above 1 or 2 kW, interleaved CCM PFC (Continuous-Current Mode, Power-Factor Correction) topologies are mandatory to handle such power levels with reasonable magnetic volume and current split. Moreover, the quest for higher efficiency, connectivity, and configuration options encourages the use … Read More → "STMicroelectronics Simplifies Access to Digital-Power Advantages with Configurable High-Efficiency Interleaved Power-Factor Correction Controller"
