40A PoL converter in 5 x 7mm package

Vishay has added a 15, 25 and 40A family of synchronous buck regulators in 5 x 7mm thermally-enhanced MLP34-57 packaging. Input voltages from 4.5 to 20V can be handled by SiC45x regulators, as they will be known, which beats the company’s earlier regulators for power density and transient response. “The high power density of the ...

Menlo Micro switch with IP3 linearity >95dBm

Menlo Micro is shipping a switch in its Ideal Switch range with an IP3 linearity of greater than 95 dBm, enabling significant reductions in distortion for RF systems. Intermodulation distortion is a key industry metric in determining the linearity of an electronic switch. The third-order intercept (IP3) is the extrapolated point where the ideal linear ...

Lockheed Martin, Omnispace exploring 5G from space

Lockheed Martin and Omnispace have agreed to jointly explore developing 5G capability from space to extend terrestrial offerings. The proposed global 5G standards-based non-terrestrial network (5G NTN), say the companies, would offer both commercial and government devices “ubiquitous communications worldwide”. The idea is that a hybrid, space-based 5G global network would enable users to easily ...
