MEMS analog microphone sport high dynamic range, low power consumption
TDK introduces the InvenSense ICS-40638 MEMS analog microphone. The ICS-40638 microphone offers an ultra-high Acoustic Overload Point (AOP) of 138 dB Sound Pressure Level (SPL), exceptionally efficient 170 µA low power operation and high Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) of 63 dB in a small 3.5 mm x 2.65 mm x 0.98 mm bottom port […]
Flip-type MLCCs target automotive apps
TDK has developed the new CGAE series, the world’s first flip-type MLCCs in 0510 design (EIA 0204) with capacitances of up to 1 µF, for automotive applications. Depending on their capacitance, the capacitors are designed for rated voltages of between 4 V and 50 V and they cover a capacitance range from 47 nF to […]
Pulse Density Modulation microphone features super-wide dynamic range
TDK announces the T5818 Pulse Density Modulation (PDM) microphone with a dynamic range of 107dB at 590µA, the widest dynamic range in the industry at the lowest power. This allows for excellent acoustic performance in environments that shift from very quiet to very loud, such as far-field voice pickup barge-in for Smart Speaker applications. The T5818 microphone features 66dBA SNR, 135dB […]
Ultra-thin piezo speakers handle high SPL, large frequency range
TDK has expanded its lineup of ultra-thin PiezoListen speakers with new types featuring a wider dynamic range and higher sound pressure level (SPL) in the low-frequency range, even at voltages up to 24 VP-P. The PiezoListen series of piezo speakers now includes the PHUA6630 wide dynamic range speaker with an operating frequency range of 400 […]
EMI suppression capacitors rated at 350 Vac
TDK is now offering a new series of EPCOS MKP Y2 capacitors for EMI suppression. In contrast to conventional types that are designed for rated voltages of 300 V AC, these new capacitors offer a permissible rated voltage of 350 V AC. The capacitances of the B3203* series range from 4.7 nF to 1.2 µF. Even under harsh environmental conditions, the […]
Filters suppress noise from 600 MHz to 2.7 GHz on audio lines
TDK Corporation has expanded the MAF1005G series of noise suppression filters for audio lines with four new MAF1005GAD-D types, which, thanks to their low DC resistance, feature a high rated current of up to 1.25 A. The new types employ TDK’s proprietary low-distortion ferrite that enables the new components to suppress noise at cellular frequencies from […]
MLCC capacitors provide high capacitance, low ESR
TDK Corporation has developed a new series of vertically stacked MEGACAP Type MLCCs that combine high capacitance and low ESR. The new CA series offers rated voltages from 25 V to 1000 V and covers a capacitance range from 20 nF to 150 µF. The new MLCCs are available with C0G, X7T, X7S, and X7R […]
MEMS pressure sensor dies feature 0.65-sq-mm footprint
The automotive versions of the C33 series of miniaturized EPCOS MEMS pressure sensor dies from TDK Corporation are sized at 1 mm x 1 mm x 0.4 mm They are designed for absolute pressures of 1.2 bar to 10 bar, and are qualified based on AEC-Q101. The typical operating voltage is 3 V. With a supply voltage of 5 V they offer sensitivities […]
Robust 3D transponder coils with high sensitivity for automotive
TDK Corporation presents a new series of 3D transponder coils with a high sensitivity level for passive entry passive start (PEPS) and other access systems. Measuring just 11.5 mm x 12.5 mm x 3.6 mm, the B82453C*A* series features six types of 3D transponder coils that offer sensitivity levels from 45 mV/µT to 83 mV/µT […]
