The LTC2063 is a single low power, zero-drift, 20kHz amplifier. The LTC2063 enables high resolution measurement at extremely low power levels. Typical supply current is 1.4μA with a maximum of 2μA. The available shutdown mode has been optimized to minimize power consumption in...

Flexible electronics is one of the emerging technologies with the rise of connected things in IoT age. This increases the need of low cost electronics to use. PragmatIC the specialized company in low cost flexible electronics wants to enable trillions of “smart objects” to...

by Graham Prophet @ eedesignnewseurope.com discuss about the MAX17682 buck DC-DC converter. With details recently posted by Maxim integrated, MAX17682 is a high-voltage, high-efficiency, iso-buck DC-DC converter designed to provide isolated power up to 10W. The device operates over a...

The LTC7820 is a fixed ratio high voltage high power switched capacitor/charge pump controller. The device includes four N-channel MOSFET gate drivers to drive external power MOSFETs in voltage divider, doubler or inverter configurations. The device achieves a 2:1 stepdown ratio from...

Apple said goodby to 3.5mm audio jack in Iphone 7 by adding the audio signal to USB plug besides the other functionalities. While Iphone is a pioneer brand, a lot of manufacturers in the near future will drop that analog jack. However, your ear responds to analog signals only. So either...

Ken Shirriff has written an article on reverse engineering the 76477 “Space Invaders” sound effect chip: Remember the old video game Space Invaders? Some of its sound effects were provided by a chip called the 76477 Complex Sound Generation chip. While the sound effects1 produced...

Susan Nordyk @ edn.com: A single-chip 2.6 A driver for brushed DC motors, STMicroelectronics’ STSPIN250 targets battery-powered portable and wearable applications. This low-voltage, energy-efficient driver integrates a power MOSFET bridge and fixed off-time PWM current controller...

by Susan Nordyk @ edn.com The MAX17055 single-cell fuel gauge from Maxim not only eliminates battery characterization, but also keeps SOC (state-of-charge) error to within 1% in most scenarios. With its ModelGauge m5 EZ algorithm, the device provides tolerance against battery...
