Two-channel, high-speed op amps feature slew rates to 10V/µs
ROHM announced the availability of a two-channel, high-speed, ground sense CMOS operational amplifier (op-amp), BD77502FVM, optimized for consumer and industrial equipment requiring high-speed sensings – such as industrial measurement and control systems. The proliferation of the Internet of Things (IoT) in recent years has led to a significant increase in the number of electronic components used for […]
Voice-first evaluation kit features analog processor and live-audio test option
Aspinity launched its Voice-First Evaluation Kit (EVK2), a complete hardware/software development kit that demonstrates Aspinity’s ultra-low-power edge processing solution for analog voice activity detection and preroll. The new EVK2 enables customers to easily integrate analog machine learning and analog data compression into battery-operated voice-enabled devices, such as hearables/wearables, smart speakers, and smart TV remotes, facilitating […]
Two-wire, hall effect switches operate over -40 C to 150 C
Diodes Incorporated has announced a family of automotive-compliant, two-wire unipolar (AH323xQ/4xQ) and latch (AH327xQ/8xQ) switch integrated circuits (ICs) that provide high sensitivity and high stability over wide operating voltage and temperature ranges. The ICs are for use in automotive proximity- and position-sensing applications, including seatbelt buckle, power window, gear selector, and seat position. The adoption […]
Ultra-thin decoupling MLCCs for 4 Vdc-rated automotive apps
Murata introduces the ultra-thin LW reversed, low equivalent series inductor (ESL) multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) with a capacitance value of 1.0 µF ±20% for 4 Vdc-rated automotive applications. With a 0204-inch size (0.5 x 1.0 mm) footprint and a maximum thickness of just 0.22 mm, the LLC152D70G105ME01 decoupling capacitor can be implemented on the back […]
Designing a DAC-controlled, high-side constant current source
by KlausST, supermoderator on EDABoard.com Here I’d like to show how to design a DAC controlled high -side constant current source. Since it is often used as 0..20mA (or 4..20mA) current loop interface, we will focus on the interface requirements. * low speed ( maybe some 10Hz up to some kHz) * high precision * […]
Cinch Connectivity Solutions to handle space-qualified QPS coaxial attenuators
The new Midwest Microwave line of space qualified QPS coaxial attenuators are specifically designed for signal processing and communications applications in satellite payload and ground testing equipment used in both the traditional GEO, as well as the rapidly growing LEO space markets. These attenuators are designed and manufactured using the same robust and high-reliability design […]
Dual 5-V op amp sports 50-MHz gain-bandwidth, low input offset voltage, 6.5 nV/√Hz input voltage noise
STMicroelectronics’ TSV792 dual 5V operational amplifier (op-amp) combines 50MHz gain-bandwidth with precision attributes including low input offset voltage and extremely low input voltage noise of just 6.5nV/√Hz. The typical 50MHz gain-bandwidth product enables accurate amplification of high-frequency signals. Adding a fast slew rate of 30V/µs, the TSV792 is suited to photodiode-signal conditioning in battery-powered smoke detectors. […]
