Würth Elektronik announced the WL-SFTW and WL-SFTD series of new RGB LEDs that are ideal for accent and decorative lighting, optical displays as well as industrial applications. Thanks to their PLCC contacting design, the two series of individually controllable LEDs are ideally suited for SMT assembly and reflow soldering. The WL-SFTW series offers three different […]
SMT double choke targets dc/dc converter apps
Würth Elektronik eiSos has announced the WE-MCRI double choke with molding technology. With its soft saturation characteristics, a WE-MCRI is suited for DC/DC converter applications. WE-MCRI consists of two identical round wire-windings compacted in a metal powder material. The double chokes for SMT assembly with outstanding electrical power and improved EMC performance are extremely compact […]
Step-down 0.6 to 5.5 V converter targets battery powered applications
With the MagI³C-VDMM (Variable Step Down MicroModule), Würth Elektronik eiSos expands its product series of power modules with high power density, very few external components and outstanding electromagnetic compatibility. The step-down converter with variable output voltage is a particularly compact solution in a LGA-6EP package (dimensions 3.2 × 2.5 × 1.6 mm). The input voltage […]

All the products listed in the catalog are available from […]
Power-supply noise, Part 2
Part 1 looked at the basics of noise, especially concerning power supplies. There are two noise sources which are not as obvious to many engineers as noise that results from the switching action of the power supply: differential mode noise and common-mode noise. These two noise modes have different causes and thus different solutions Q: […]
Power-supply noise, Part 1
“Noise”—perhaps nothing worries design engineers as much as the implications of this single five-letter word. There are good reasons for this worry. Noise is often unpredictable; may come from internal and somewhat controllable sources, or external impossible-to-control sources; it can affect performance accuracy and consistency; it can cause products to not meet their target design […]
