Snap-in electrolytics rated for 5,000 hours at 105°C
Kyocera AVX has launched two series of snap-in -25 to 105°C electrolytic capacitors for commercial and industrial applications. SNA capacitors are rated for a life of 5,000 hours. Voltage ratings are 250, 420 or 450Vdc, capacitance is between 82 and 1,500µF (±20%), and there are 24 case sizes spanning 22mm diameter x 25mm long to 35∅ x 50mm. As well ...
Geyer signs with New Yorker for quartz crystal distribution
New Yorker Electronics has signed a franchised distribution agreement with Geyer Electronic, a manufacturer of quart crystals, oscillators and resonators. “Founded in 1964 in Munich as a retail store with a range of electronic products, Geyer became a manufacturing company in 1992, specializing in frequency products and special batteries. Ultimately it dropped the batteries line and has concentrated completely on ...
15kVA three-phase motor drives for more-electric aircraft
Microchip is aiming at 15kVA actuators in more-electric aircraft with a pair of three-phase power drive assemblies with silicon carbide power components. Both consists of a power module soldered to driver board “The companion gate driver boards are designed to be integrated with [power] modules to provide an all-in-one motor drive solution for the electrification of systems such as flight ...
1kV 22nF ceramic capacitor for vehicle on-board chargers
Samsung is aiming at electric vehicle on-board chargers with a 1,000v 22nF multi-layer ceramic capacitor. CL32C223JIV1PN# (yes, there is a # in the part number) is aimed at CLLC resonant power supply topologies and is constructed with a COG dielectric. Operation is across -55 to +125°C and it has a ±5% tolerance. Packaging is a 2.5mm tall 3.2 x 2.5mm ...
SiTime lauds benefits of integration with clock generators for AI data centres
A family of clock generators shifts the focus of SiTime from oscillators. The Chorus family is the second announcement from the company, following its introduction of clock generators in 2020. Oscillators make up 95% of the company’s revenue, explained Piyush Sevalia, SiTime’s executive vice president of marketing, but the acquisition of Indian’s Aura Semiconductor brought its clock products and clock ...
Remote head torque sensors are accurate to ±0.1%
Sensor Technology has torque sensor accurate to ±0.1% of full-scale, that has its sensing head and electronics in separate housings. “This has two advantages,” according to the company. “The sensing head can fit into confined spaces, and the electronics can be located in a position where they are protected from physical damage, dust, dirt, moisture and electromagnetic forces.” Dubbed SGR530 ...
Pogo pins and rigid pins from CUI
CUI Devices has started making a selection of pogo pins and PCB pins – the former being spring-loaded and the latter rigid. The PCB pins are all press-fit, while the pogo pins are through-hole, surface-mount or wire-mount. All come under its CPG… part number family. “The CPG family of pogo and PCB pins offers gold plated contacts for high reliability ...
NEMA23 stepper motors with UL/CSA certification
Nanotec has introduced UL/CSA certified 56mm flange (NEMA23) stepper motors with integrated position encoders. There are four ASA5618 motors, giving options on 140 or 230Nm torgue (which corresponds to 88 or 109.5mm length) and either a incremental (4,096 CPR / 16,384 PPR) or multi-turn (16bit multi-turn, 17bit single-turn) encoder. Current per winding is 4.2A and ingress protection is to IP65. They are ...
IP block covers Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.4 dual mode and IEEE 802.15.4 for IoT chips
Ceva has introduced a multi-radio intellectual property package for IoT IC designers that combines Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.4 and 802.15.4 modems with a 2.4GHz transceiver aimed at TSMC’s 22nm process. Called Links100 (diagram right), it is the first of a series of IP products (diagram below) that will also include transceivers for Wi-Fi 7 with MLO (multi-link operation), and UWB ...
