Wurth has come up with a neat idea for those in need of shielding on their PCB, but without time to order a custom part. For prototyping, ShielDIY is bend-it-yourself shielding made from 0.2 mm thick metal sheet with pre-embossed fold lines at 5mm intervals. “To produce an individual shielding cabinet of the required shape, ...

ROHM is aiming to power the sensors in self-driving cars with a family of compact dc-dc converters. Called the BD9S series, the parts support output currents from 0.6 to 4.0A and come in 3x3mm packages, and operate at up to 90% efficiency (3.6Vin 1.8Vout). Switching is current-mode, resulting in fast load transient response, and fixed 2.2MHz ...
