The devices […]
250-W non-isolated SIP dc-dc converter uses 60% less PCB area
TDK Corporation announces the introduction of 250W rated SIP (Single In-line Package) models to the TDK-Lambda i6A4W product family of non-isolated DC-DC converters. Utilizing less than 0.47 in2 of board area, this represents a 60% saving compared to 1/16th brick format converters. Capable of operating from a wide input voltage of up to 9 to […]
Bi-directional voltage level translator meets network and server requirements
Diodes Incorporated announced a new addition to its family of low voltage level translators, offering simple and autonomous bidirectional operation. The PI4GTL2002 is a 2-bit level shifter designed to translate signals conditioned for one voltage level to signals at a higher or lower voltage, such as gunner transceiver logic (GTL) or GTL+ to LVTTL/TTL. As […]
