Rad-hard P-FETs handle 22 A, 60 V
SSDI developed the SFL22P06S.5 to respond to a customer’s request for a 2N7624U3 replacement needed for a space application. This -22 A, -60 V P-channel MOSFET in the SMD.5 package has a low on-resistance of 60 mΩ max (-10 V, -10 A) and a low total gate charge of 7 NC type. This fast switching device […]
SMD inductors handle up to 400 V
ITG Electronics has introduced a high-voltage addition to its PQ108180H Series of Surface Mount Device (SMD) Inductors. Key to the high-voltage SMD Inductor’s success is the adoption of more robust design materials, which allow the unit to not only withstand higher voltages but also ensure a prolonged component lifespan. Part of a broader, company-wide effort […]
Current-sensing resistor handles 7 W
Power electronic engineers continue to push for higher power, lower values, and better precision. Most common resistor technologies cannot adequately meet all three requirements, but Stackpole’s CSS/CSSH Series is able meet these demands in a variety of sizes, power ratings and values. Stackpole’s latest addition is its 3637 high-power shunt. The CSSH3637 is a 7W […]
