With USB Power Delivery in mind, EPC has designed a 180W GaN dc-dc converter evaluation board. Its two-phase power section occupies only 24 x 24mm, using both sides of the board and ignoring input and output bulk capacitors. Called EPC91109 and intended to implement USB-PD 3.1, it delivers 12, 16 or 20V from an input range of 20 to 36V. ...

Teledyne Space Imaging has had its second CCD launch within a week, this time in part of the European Space Agency’s Sentinel-4 space-based air-quality monitoring mission. In the other one, a pair of Teledyne CIS120 sensors launched on GOSAT-GW, Japan’s global observing satellite for greenhouse gases and water cycle satellite Sentinel-4 will be spread across multiple satellites, with this Sentinel-4 ...

The Standardization Group for Embedded Technologies (SGET) has released SMARC Design Guide v2.2, hot on the heels of SMARC Module Specification v2.2. “This updated version of the design guide provides support for hardware developers and system architects by offering detailed implementation recommendations and layout best practices for SMARC-based carrier boards,” according to the group. “The revision ensures alignment with the ...

Analog Devices has created a pair of 22V stereo Class-D audio amplifier that idle at 6mA and shut-down to microamps. MAX98415A and MAX98425A are similar, and both including envelope tracking control that saves power by instructing an external dc-dc converter to provide the amplifiers main power input with just enough voltage for clean output signals. The difference between the two ...

Astute Group has signed a distribution agreement with Silanna Semiconductor to distribute its Plural ADCs in Europe and India. According to Astute, Plural ADCs offer a more affordable and versatile option with shorter lead times compared to current market alternatives. They are factory-configurable, providing over 150 ADC variants with sample rates ranging from 20 to 250Msps. The ADCs are available ...

Conrad is to supply a series of physically-small 12bit oscilloscopes from Voltcraft, that stretches form 70 to 250MHz, and from two channels to four. Across they measure 260mm. “Their compact lightweight design makes these the perfect choice for field work and classroom alike,” said Conrad. The “built-in HMDI port allows mirroring display content to large screens”. Maximum sample rate is ...

Rutronik is aiming at 3-phase industrial control cabinets with a DIN-rail mount mains filter series from Schurter. “The housing, with a width of just 44mm, requires extremely little space on the mounting rail,” said distributor Rutronik. “The single-stage filter is available as a standard version or with high attenuation. FPAC RAIL impresses above all with its leakage current of just ...

Renesas has introduced a high-end AI MCU family with triple processors and security. The highest spec devices in the ‘RA8P1’ microcontroller family combine a 1GHz Arm Cortex-M85 processor with a 256 MAC/cycle 400MHz Arm Ethos-U55 neural processing unit and a 250MHz Cortex-M33 CPU. “This combination delivers CPU performance of over 7,300 CoreMarks and AI performance of 256Gop/s,” according to the ...

Taoglas, the antenna specialist, has brought out a roof mount antenna designed for connected vehicle fleets across emergency services, utilities, and commercial sectors which integrates up to 18 antenna elements. Called the Patriot series, the antenna supports  5G and 4G cellular (600–6000 MHz), with both dual-band GNSS (L1 and L1/ L5) and a secondary GNSS (L1), Wi-Fi (2.4, 5.8, and ...

CIS120 sensors designed and manufactured by Teledyne Space Imaging have launched on the Japanese space mission GOSAT-GW (Global Observing SATellite for Greenhouse gases and Water cycle). The Chelmsford-based company highlights the two sensors will play a significant part in what is the third of a series of Japanese climate change and Earth observation satellite missions. TANSO-3 They are part of ...
