Working with Wirewounds
by Kory Schroeder, Director of Product Marketing and Engineering, Stackpole Electronics Inc. For high currents, axial-leaded wirewound resistors are often good candidates because they can handle up to 10 W and double as fuses. When a task calls for dissipating kilowatts of power over an extended period, wirewound resistors are often a logical choice. These […]
Current-sense resistors handle 2 W
KOA Speer Electronics introduces the new TLR2HW metal plate chip current sense resistor in a 2010 size, featuring a 2-watt power rating and ultra low resistance of 1m to 10m. The metal alloy of the TLR2HW provides superior corrosion and heat resistance, with small size SMD type metal plate providing low resistance for current detection. […]
Low Resistance Values Ideal for Portable Consumer Electronics
The CSRF Series is a surface mount current sense resistor series that utilizes foil on ceramic carrier technology. This structure allows for very low resistance values in small case sizes while maintaining good TCR. The 0402 size is available in the popular 10 milliohm value, while the 0603 size is available in values down to […]
TI’s ultra-small FemtoFET™ MOSFETs Feature Lowest On-Resistance
Texas Instruments (TI) (NASDAQ: TXN) introduced the industry’s smallest, low on-resistance MOSFETS for space-constrained handheld applications, such as smartphones and tablets. The new family of FemtoFET™ MOSFET transistors features ultra-small packaging and on-resistance below 100 milli-ohms. The three N-channel and three P-channel FemtoFET MOSFETs are packaged in a land grid array (LGA) that reduces board […]
Stackpole’s ASRM2 2-Watt Resistors
Stackpole’s addition of ASRM2 is a mini 2 W power rating in its ASR series of axial leaded anti-surge resistors. It is the same size as the ASR1, has the same working voltage rating of 4 KV and overload voltage rating of 5 KV, yet rated for 2 W of continuous power. The ASR series […]
The Laminex EMI/RFI Shielding Tape and Flat Conductor
With no adhesive layer, the Laminex EMI/RFI shielding Tape and Flat Conductor windings offers three distinct advantages over its competition. It is thinner overall for a given dielectric strength, still using a thicker conductor; customers can solder lead wires to the base metal right through the insulation film; and, customers’ cutters and taping machines never […]
High Power to Size Ratio from Super Mini Metal Film Resistors
Stackpole’s flameproof RNS Series is ideal for existing designs that require downsizing or added features. It is also a popular choice for new designs that require the smallest form factor possible for a given power rating. Specifically, the RNS Series 1W has an EIA standard ¼ watt body size, and the RNS 2W has an […]
Signal Transformer Introduces New Series of SMD Power Inductors
Signal Transformer, a subsidiary of Bel Fuse Inc. (NASDAQ: BELFA & BELFB), announced the addition of over 150 SMD wire wound inductors to complement their offerings of standard and custom power transformers and high frequency magnetics. The new RoHS- compliant and PB-free series provide OEMs/ODMs with cost-effective solutions to an array of space-constrained applications requiring […]
