Flat wire and square core PFC chokes target industrial and automotive applications
ITG Electronics has introduced a line of power factor correction (PFC) chokes whose slim design enables engineers to incorporate them into tight spaces. The company’s PFC282820B and PFC282822B series of PFC chokes are suitable for 500-1000 watt continuous conduction mode PFC boost converter applications. ITG Electronics also offers a wider design (27.5 x 28.5 mm) compatible […]
Resistors provide improved reliability for automotive and industrial applications
Many types of electronic products across a variety of market segments require higher reliability components. Automotive grade resistors offer increased reliability and improved performance without the high cost and limited availability of components procured to established reliability military specifications. For those applications that also require a defined pulse withstanding the options become limited. Stackpole’s RPCA […]
Capacitors offer high CV, long lifetime, and compact size for high-density designs
KYOCERA AVX released the new RES Series radial-leaded aluminum electrolytic capacitors. The new RES Series wet aluminum electrolytic capacitors are engineered to deliver high CV values in small case sizes, long-lifetime endurance of 5,000–7,000 hours at 105°C, and high ripple current to help manufacturers save board space in high-density PCB assemblies without compromising on endurance. They […]
High-voltage DC caps operate to 105°C
TDK Corporation presents a new series of EPCOS power capacitors for DC link applications designed for an operating temperature of up to +105 °C. The components with the ordering code B25695E can operate at rated DC voltages from 700 V to 1300 V (voltage derating necessary from +85 °C). The ESR ranges from 1.0 mΩ […]
Fuse line adds 0201 packages, protects 28 mA to 200 mA
KYOCERA AVX extended its Accu-Guard II Low-Current Fuses with new 0201 case sizes that deliver the industry’s lowest current ratings. Accu-Guard II Low-Current Fuses utilize thin-film technology to achieve precise control over the components’ physical and electrical characteristics — beyond what’s possible with standard fuse technologies — and deliver extremely low current ratings in compact […]
DIN rail power supplies series now includes high-power three-phase AC input options
TDK Corporation announces the addition of higher power, three-phase AC input models to the TDK-Lambda DRB series of DIN rail mount power supplies. With 24V, 48V, and 72V outputs, the products are rated for continuous operation at 480W or 960W and can deliver a boost of 720W and 1440W respectively for up to seven seconds. […]
100 V Trench Schottky diodes boost efficiency in high-frequency power converters
STMicroelectronics has introduced 100V trench Schottky rectifier diodes that boost efficiency in power converters operated at high switching frequencies. Raising power-converter operating frequency, encouraged by the minimal switching losses of technologies like wide-bandgap semiconductors, allows designers to set new benchmarks in power density. However, at elevated frequencies, the energy losses in conventional planar diodes, including […]
Industrial ac-dc power supplies meet EMI standards, offer versatile installation options
TDK Corporation announces the introduction of the ZWS-C series of 10, 15, 30, and 50W-rated industrial AC-DC power supplies. The products meet EN55011/EN55032-B conducted and radiated EMI in either a Class I or Class II (double insulated) construction, without the need for external filtering or shielding. With electrolytic capacitor lifetimes of up to 15 years, […]
Wide range of wet aluminum electrolytic capacitors designed for industrial and consumer electronics
KYOCERA AVX has released the new surface-mount AEF Series wet aluminum V-chip electrolytic capacitors, which are designed for industrial and consumer electronics applications with high-density PCBs and qualified for industrial endurance levels.
