Texas Instruments (TI) has debuted the industry’s first stand-alone active electromagnetic interference (EMI) filter integrated circuits (ICs), enabling engineers to implement smaller, lighter EMI filters, to enhance system functionality at reduced system cost — while simultaneously meeting EMI regulatory standards. As electrical systems become increasingly dense and interconnected, mitigating EMI is a critical system design…
Diodes adds to its line of automotive-compliant DC-DC converters
Diodes Incorporated has announced a further addition to its family of automotive-compliant DC-DC converters. The DIODES’ AP64060Q is a 600mA synchronous buck-converter device with an input voltage range that covers 4.5 to 40V. It incorporates a 600mΩ high-side power MOSFET plus a 300mΩ low-side power MOSFET so that high-efficiency step-down conversion (reaching 90%) can be…
Renesas releases 32-bit MCUs with superior noise tolerance
Renesas Electronics Corporation, a supplier of advanced semiconductor solutions, announced a new addition to the RX 32-bit MCU Family, the RX660 group of microcontrollers that supports operating voltages of up to 5V.
