MOSFET half-bridge gate driver targets motor appliance apps
Diodes Incorporated has introduced the DGD0579U high-side and low-side gate drivers. This high-frequency device, which has a built-in bootstrap diode, is capable of driving two N-channel MOSFETs in the half-bridge configurations that are commonly used for motor control and DC-DC power delivery functions. It targets high power applications, like cordless power tools, e-bikes, and autonomous […]
Class-D stereo amplifier drives 12 W and 4Ω speakers
Diodes Incorporated introduces the PAM8965 Class-D stereo audio power amplifier with an integrated synchronous boost converter. This high-efficiency device is targeted for use in AI-enabled speaker systems and portable musical instruments – where elevated output power, extended battery life, and compact construction are all key requirements. Running off a 2.8V to 8.5V supply, the PAM8965 has […]
Reducing ringing or reflections by controlling impedance lines
What is a controlled impedance line? For one thing, the term has to do with Printed Circuit Board (PCB) traces and layouts, which get more complex with higher frequency signals. Generally, you need not worry much about controlling impedance in traces unless you are working with signals at or above 50 MHz. However, most of […]
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 […]
Analog multiplexers capable of switching signal voltages up to 36 V
Diodes Incorporated announced the introduction of the PS508 and PS509 analog multiplexers that are capable of switching signal voltages of up to 36V in an industrial environment.
