The latest Electronics Weekly product news on analogue, linear and mixed-signal ICs.
Texas Instruments has revealed the fastest 12bit ADC – the ADC12DJ5200RF – that can sample two channels at 5.2Gsample/s, that can be interleaved into a single 10.4Gsample/s channel. That is two channels of 12bit 2.6GHz instantaneous bandwidth, or one of 5.2GHz instantaneous bandwidth. “The design comes from our centre in Friesing Germany – they have been designing high-speed ADCs there for ...
Cissoid has announced an adjustable linear regulator and logic gates that operate with junction temperature from -55°C up to 175°C – exceeding AEC-Q100 Grade 0 standard, the Belgian high-rel chip maker pointed out. Members of the firm’s new CXT series of automotive grade components, all with the same temperature range, the first is CXT-STA4919, a 50mA adjustable linear voltage regulator that can create ...
Power Integrations has launched a suite of offline switcher ICs incorporating 900 V primary mosfets. The devices include ICs for high-efficiency isolated fly-back power supplies and for simple non-isolated buck converters. See our full PCIM 2019 news roundup » Applications include three-phase industrial power supplies up to 480Vac, and high-quality consumer products destined for regions with unstable mains grids, tropical ...
Rohm addresses NXP's i.MX 8M mini application processors
For long data cables, Diodes has introduced aPCIe 4.0 compliant equalising repeater for use between 2.5Gbit/s and 16Gbit/s. Called PI3EQX16904GL, and branded a ReDriver by the firm, the device supports four 100Ω differential current mode logic (CML) data I/Os, providing programmable linear equalisation, output swing, and gain to reduce inter-symbol interference over a variety of physical media. “It is the industry’s ...
Analog Devices has released a couple of dual high-resolution SAR (successive-approximation register) ADCs operating at up to 4Msample/s, both packaged in 3 x 3mm 16pin LFCSP. 16bit AD7380 14bit AD7381 Dual simultaneous-sampling is available, and the firm is promoting them for motor control, sonar, power quality and data acquisition applications. “The conversion process and data acquisition use standard control inputs ...
Intended to fit inside the end of industrial data cables, Maxim has unveiled a dual IO-Link transceiver that includes a dc-dc converter and surge – claiming it to be both the smallest and most power-efficient available. Called MAX2251, the buck regulator supplies up to 300mA of load current and has an adjustable output from 2.5V to 12V). Switching is a ...
Vishay has introduced a series of 1Mbaud (2MHz NRZ) optocouplers with built-in Schmitt trigger and open collector output. Called the VOH1016A series, the typical input current for output turn-on is 650μA (2mA max required) with guaranteed on-off threshold hysteresis – I(off)/I(on) is between 0.5 and 0.95, typically 0.9 (Vcc 5V, 280Ω load). Output stage supply voltage range is 3-15V (at 550μA ...
Battery-powered consumer electronics can have artificial intelligence hearing, according to a partnership between low-power MCU firm Ambiq Micro, mems microphone maker Vesper and sound recognition specialist Audio Analytic. They are not offering wide vocabulary speech recognition, but recognition of individual sounds. “Meeting steep power consumption demands remains the largest barrier to truly enabling AI on battery-powered edge devices,“ said Ambiq v-p of ...
UK fabless chip firm CambridgeIC has increased its portfolio of position sensing IC, adding a fast and precise version of its unique technology which senses angular or linear position, with precision, despite relaxed mounting tolerances for its components which are ICs mounted on PCBs containing inductive patterns. “CambridgeIC’s family of position measuring ICs are an effective alternative to traditional position ...
