STMicroelectronics’ TSZ181H1 and dual TSZ182H1 automotive-qualified operational amplifiers (op amps) deliver high accuracy and stability over a wide (-40°C to 175°C) temperature range. The high maximum operating temperature encourages use in harsh environments and in applications with long mission profiles. The op amps have very low input offset voltage, typically 3.5µV at 25°Cm, and input bias current, typically 30pA […]

Mass production of this new common-mode filter began in February 2023. This product is the industry’s first common mode filter for automotive Ethernet 10BASE-T1S. Adopting […]
Precision thin-film resistors offer ±0.01% tolerances, ±2ppm TCRs
With the proliferation of electronics in nearly every market sector, there is an increasing need for precision resistors. For markets such as medical instrumentation and control, industrial and automotive controls, communications, and test & measurement, these precision resistors must maintain electrical and environmental stability long term. Stackpole’s RNCF series of precision thin film resistors meet these […]
What causes signal attenuation in a PCB and how can it be controlled?
Except for the most basic designs, system clock rates are inexorably creeping upward across a wide range of applications, from 5G telephony to automotive advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), medical, industrial, and mil/aero systems. As frequencies rise into the GHz range, the need for impedance control to minimize signal attenuation and protect signal integrity gets […]
Automotive-grade chip resistors excel at handling pulses
High-reliability chip resistors can be more difficult to find and even more so when there are pulse handling requirements. Typically, the manufacturing process for thick film chip resistors allows for variation in the calibration trim, leading to variation in pulse handling performance. Stackpole’s recently released RPCA series addresses all these needs. The RPCA has limited to […]
