Using and interfacing to thermocouples
I recently had cause to look again at thermocouples after not having used them for many years. While they may seem a little old fashioned when you can measure temperature with a simple IC or a complex IC with an I²C or SPI interface such as the Analog Devices ADT7410, thermocouples still have their uses. […]
Next gen automotive image sensor with LED flicker mitigation
ON Semiconductor is now sampling an LED Flicker Mitigation (LFM) technology in a new 2.3 megapixel (MP) CMOS image sensor that sets a new benchmark for automotive Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) applications. Capable of capturing 1080p high dynamic range (HDR) video, the AR0231AT also includes features that support Automotive Safety Integrity Level B (ASIL B). The […]
RF Power Combiners Operate Up to 6 GHz
Fairview Microwave Inc., a supplier of on-demand microwave and RF components, introduces a new line of broadband RF power combiners. These new combiners are commonly deployed in systems using components such as power amplifiers, antenna feeds, attenuators and switches, often for combining individual power amplifiers together into a large power block in an amplifier system. […]
High-power GaN coaxial power amps fit in compact packages
Pasternack, a manufacturer and supplier of RF, microwave and millimeter wave products, announces their expanded offering of gallium nitride (GaN) coaxial power amplifiers. GaN has emerged as the technology of choice in power amplifier designs. The high power density of gallium nitride semiconductor technology dissipates heat more effectively which results in amplifier designs that have significantly […]
1080p video development kit for IoT
ON Semiconductor has introduced an open imaging platform for low-power video streaming applications. The MatrixCam video development kit (VDK) has been developed specifically to encourage greater video adoption within Internet of Things (IoT) products, as well as accelerating OEMs’ time to market. Among its key applications are home automation systems, building access devices, baby monitors, […]
Wolfspeed introduces 50V plastic GaN HEMTs for LTE & radar
Wolfspeed, a Cree Company and a global supplier of GaN-on-SiC high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) and monolithic microwave integrated circuits (MMICs), has introduced two new plastic-packaged 50V/60W GaN HEMT devices that provide the intrinsic GaN value of power and bandwidth in a low cost package platform. Supplied in miniature (4.5mm x 6.5mm), economical, plastic SMT packages, […]
Coaxial-packaged RF amplifiers cover 9 kHz to 3 GHz
Pasternack, a leading provider of in-stock and ready to ship RF, microwave and millimeter wave products, announces the release of new affordable coaxial-packaged RF amplifiers. Both low noise and gain block amplifiers are offered and display excellent performance covering wide octave frequency bands from 9 KHz to 3 GHz. All of these new amplifiers from […]
Top analog threads on EDAboard.com – September
High-side switching using P channel – I am using LTC4412 for power path switching. In the example, it shows use of P Channel with drain connected to Positive and Source to load. I understand that this would avoid reverse flow but shouldn’t the voltage input be connected to Source of MOSFET? Read more I am trying the following […]
Ultra-low-jitter clock generators for telecommunications infrastructure equipment
Texas Instruments (TI) (NASDAQ: TXN) introduced a new family of clock generators that provides ultra-low jitter of 100 femtoseconds (fs) and flexible, unique pin control options. Compared to conventional reference clock solutions, the new clock generators’ jitter performance enables system designers to optimize system timing margins and bit error rate (BER) to reduce data transmission […]
