Power Supply Reference Design Advances Set-Top Boxes
APEC 2008, Austin, TX - Accelerating set-top box designs, the GreenPoint 50W ac/dc power supply reference design reportedly overcomes the challenges of delivering high efficiency on four output voltages by employing synchronous rectification and soft-switching quasi resonance.
Intusoft Adding Acme’s Ferrites To Simulation Program
In collaboration with Acme Magnetics USA, Intusoft is incorporating Acme’s ferrite cores into Intusoft’s Magnetics Designer simulation product. Magnetics Designer, which runs on Windows 98 through VISTA, creates many types of layer and sector/split-bobbin wound transformers and inductors.
Compact DCR Inductors Feature Tight Tolerances
The HM69T series of DCR surface-mount power inductors offers typical DCRs of 0.298 m? with a ±3% tolerance, in a package that measures as small as 7.4 by 7.2 by 5.0 mm.
Current-Sense Metal-Element Resistors Boast Tight TCRs
The ULR series of ROHS-compliant surface-mount metal-element resistors feature tight temperature coefficients of resistance (TCR) and low inductance values. They offer designers an economical current-sense device that maximizes thermal performance and minimizes power consumption.
Lambda’s ATX Supplies Aim At Computer Applications
The new ZWX series open-frame ac-dc ATX power supplies target server and industrial computer applications. They deliver the five voltages needed by high-end industrial computers—+3.3, +5, +12, –12, and +5 V (standby)—and are 1U rack or enclosure mountable.
ON Semiconductor Adds Efficient Power Designs
With the introduction of five GreenPoint open reference designs at APEC this week, ON Semiconductor now has made available a total of 12 power-efficient designs. Each constitutes a blueprint for a power supply or power adapter solution proven to meet or exceed evolving energy-saving standards, according to the company.
MOSFETs Log On As Market's Smallest
Addressing ever-shrinking portable devices, the PMZxxx family of small signal MOSFETs debuts in one of the smallest packages to available, the SOT883 measuring 1 mm x 0.6 mm x 0.5 mm. Freeing up more board space, the devices have no leads. Other features ...
Companies Roll Out Their Best And Brightest At APEC 2008
IEEE’s APEC is the power industry’s premier tradeshow and convention. This year’s event, held in Austin, Texas from Feb. 24 to Feb. 28, was no exception. (APEC 2009 will be in Washington, D.C.) As a trade-press editor, I go to APEC to track trends and to learn about the dozens of new devices and ICs introduced there. Here’s a look at what I took away from the sessions and the tradeshow floor.
