Richardson RFPD is stocking 0402 (1005 metric) glass sandwich resistors designed to work from dc to 40GHz. Made by Kyocera AVX, and called the UBR series, they measure 1 x 0.5 x 0.5mm and have a flexible termination. “‘Flexiterm’ is a surface-mountable, automotive-qualified termination that adds an extra margin of protection against damage due to flexure during installation,” according to ...

The chassis mounting MF423-3-3D-BB three phase EMC filter series from EMC specialist EMIS is designed for higher current rating applications such as photovoltaic (PV) and power drive systems and offers the superior attenuation required to meet relevant EMC Standards. Installed on the mains input side of equipment the filters significantly improve conducted immunity and reliability. The devices are fitted with ...

Murata claims to have made the world’s first MLCC to provide a capacitance of 100μF in a 0603-inch (1608mm) size package with its GRM188C80E107M and GRM188R60E107M devices. With its compact packaging, 2.5V rated, low equivalent series resistance (ESR) and impedance, and X6S/X5R temperature classes, the new GRM188 is suitable for decoupling and smoothing circuits in demanding computer and network environments. ...

Working principle of automobile electronic water pump As an important part of the car’s cooling system, the electronic water pump plays a vital role. Understanding how a car’s electronic water pump works is crucial to understanding its function in the vehicle. The automobile electronic water pump is driven ...

Nisshinbo Micro Devices has brought out two SAW (Surface Acoustic Wave) filters in a compact package – NSNJ2023 and NSNJ2024. Using two SAW filters in one package offers several advantages: It reduces the component’s overall size, which is particularly valuable in compact electronic devices where board space is at a premium. It also simplifies the design and manufacturing process, reduces ...

Samsung has created a 630V 100nF multi-layer ceramic capacitor in 1210 size (3.2 x 2.5mm) specifically for electric vehicle dc-dc converters and on-board chargers. CL32B104KHU6PN has an X7R dielectric (±15% capacitance -55 to +125°C) and a maximum rated voltage of 630V. “A dc-dc converter converts high voltages to 12Vdc in order to operate in-vehicle infotainment systems, for example,” according to ...

Schaffner has added nanocrystalline core versions of its ~65mm diameter RT common-mode choke series. Identified by part numbers of the form RT8xx1, they come in a choice of horizontal or vertical core orientation (see image) with two or three windings for single or three-phase power, as well as dc. “Based on nanocrystalline core technology, the series achieves up to 15dB ...
