Plugfest interoperability testing event for early adopters of new MIPI I3C sensor interface
The MIPI® Alliance, an international organization that develops interface specifications for mobile and mobile-influenced industries, today announced the successful completion of its first MIPI I3CSM Plugfest interoperability event. The plugfest, held March 27-28 in Barcelona, Spain, in conjunction with the MIPI Alliance Member Meeting, provided the first opportunity for early adopters of the new MIPI I3C sensor interface to […]
SAW filters target Wi-Fi use with steep skirts, minimal insertion loss
Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd. has released a new Incredibly High Performance (IHP) SAW filter (measuring just 1.1 x 0.9 mm) for Wi-Fi applications that delivers greater steepness, insertion reduction, and temperature characteristic stability compared to conventional models. Using the company’s new proprietary SAW technology to achieve these benefits, the SAFQ2G45MA0G0A series is ideal for ISM2.4GHz RF circuits in mobile devices, such as smartphones […]
Analog Devices expands cable infrastructure solutions with acquisition of broadband GaAs and GaN amplifier expert OneTree Microdevices
Analog Devices, Inc. announced the acquisition of OneTree Microdevices, Inc., a privately held company based in Santa Rosa, California. ADI is a leading supplier of mixed-signal solutions for cable access ranging from data converters through clocking and control/power conditioning. With the acquisition of OneTree Microdevices’ GaAs and GaN amplifier portfolio, which offers best-in-class linearity, output […]
High-voltage analog switch ICs handle medical ultrasound imaging applications
Monolithic Power Systems, Inc. announced its launch of two new high-voltage analog switch ICs, the MP4816A and MP4816, for medical ultrasound imaging applications. Our 180V, 16-channel, analog switches can pass or block transmit signals of up to ±90V and require no high-voltage supplies. Because other legacy solutions require one positive and one negative high-voltage supply, eliminating these two supplies […]
High-throw count RF switches span 9 kHz – 8 GHz range
Peregrine Semiconductor Corp., founder of RF SOI (silicon on insulator) and pioneer of advanced RF solutions, introduces the UltraCMOS® PE42562, PE42582 and PE42512 high-throw count RF switches. Optimized for the demands of next-generation test & measurement equipment, these SP6T, SP8T and SP12T absorptive switches support a wide frequency range from 9 kHz to 8 GHz […]
Thin-film-on-ceramic high-density resistor networks designed for reliability
TT Electronics, a global provider of engineered electronics for performance critical applications, has launched the QSOP-C and SOIC-C high-density resistor networks that combine high precision with stability and reliability. By using a ceramic substrate and a relatively large feature size, they offer better cross-talk performance than types based on silicon substrates. With target markets in […]
ADAS Radar technology based on 28nm CMOS
Analog Devices, Inc. announced the Drive360 28nm CMOS RADAR technology platform that builds on its established ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems), MEMS, and RADAR technology portfolio widely used throughout the automotive industry for the past 20 years. Analog Devices is the first to offer automotive RADAR technology based on an advanced 28nm CMOS process and the […]
Multilayer organic high-pass filters target 0.74 – 2.83GHz wireless apps
Based on AVX’s patented and proven multilayer organic (MLO) high density interconnect technology, the new HF Series MLO high pass filters utilize high dielectric constant and low loss materials to help engineers integrate high Q passive printed elements, such as inductors and capacitors, in multilayer stacks with land grid array surface mount packaging that’s expansion-matched […]
Tiny 3-MHz chopper op amps feature rail-to-rail input and output
The TSZ182 dual precision op amp from STMicroelectronics combines low and extremely temperature-stable input-offset voltage with the added advantages of a 3MHz gain-bandwidth, rail-to-rail inputs and outputs, and ultra-small 2mm x 2mm DFN8 or Mini-SO8 package options. Complementing ST’s popular conventional op amps, the chopper-stabilized TSZ182 enables superior precision in instruments like body-signal monitors, blood-glucose […]
