UnitedSiC has revealed four 750V silicon carbide power transistors, the first devices from its fourth generation process it unveiled earlier this year. The unusual 750V rating is to allow additional design margin for 400V or 500V battery and bus applications compared with 650V devices, and improvements compared with the company’s third generation means that “gen4 750V ...

Renesas has announced a single-chip 14-Bit, 1-MSPS successive-approximation-register (SAR) ADC for rad-hard space applications. Renesas’ Intersil brand ISL73141SEH claims best in class dynamic and static performance, including signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), effective number of bits (ENOB), integral non-linearity (INL) and differential non-linearity (DNL). The ADC fully resets after every sample, clearing any errors that result from ...

ROHM has integrated VCSEL technology with MOSFET drivers in a module to achieve the shorter pulses and high output required for more accurate sensing. Conventionally, in VCSEL-equipped laser light sources, both the VCSEL device and MOSFET for driving the light source are individually mounted on the board. Consequently, the wiring length (parasitic inductance) between products ...
