By Roger Allan, contributing writer There’s good news for power supply system designers. Silicon-based power devices are making performance advances in diode, transistor, and field-effect transistor (FET) functions. But wide-bandgap semiconductor IC technologies like gallium nitride (GaN) and silicon carbide (SiC) are poised to grow rapidly, offering designers greater performance in a smaller package, making […]

Diodes Incorporated enables cost-effective headset detection with low power IC in miniature package
The AZV5001 headset detection IC introduced by Diodes Incorporated is targeted at cost- and power-sensitive consumer electronics such as mobile phones, tablet computers and media players. The integration of a comparator, OR gate and N‑channel MOSFET into a miniature package enables the connection of a headset with microphone to be quickly and simply detected. The […]
