Tiny digital environment sensor goes to market
Sensirion has shipped thousands of samples of its SHT21 digital humidity and temperature sensor in 2009 and will start volume production next month.

Power module optimizes 5V bus voltage to match load
Ericsson Power Modules has designed its latest 1/8 brick power module for 5V intermediate bus voltages and other applications requiring a tightly regulated 5V supply.

Intel launches 32-nm Xeon secure processors
Intel launched a new line of secure processors implemented at 32-nanometer and offering two new security features said to offer data centers a stronger foundation for cloud security.

20V switching regulators simplify intermediate power bus, PoL designs
ADI's ADP2300/01 step-down dc-to-dc non-synchronous regulators feature internal compensation to enable design engineers to reduce power system design complexity while generating power conversion efficiencies of greater than 90 percent.

Sensing devices operate behind darkened glass
New Taos Ambient light sensing and proximity detection devices operate behind darkened glass and enable sleek designs, increased energy efficiency, and extended battery life.

Power amplifier series provides high linear output power
Avago Technologies announced two new high linear power amplifier (PA) modules that feature low power consumption and improve signal quality for WiMAX and WiFi applications that operate in the 2GHz range.

Are 18 and 20 bits now the new 16 bits?
Recently introduced 20-bit DACs are truly impressive, and revisit the eternal question: how do you measure this level of performance? . . . . .
Bill Schweber, Planet Analog Editor

ATom-based PC is in industrial enclosure
Eurotech have added the Intel Atom based Catalyst EC ICE to its range of industrial compact enclosures. It is suitable for applications such as remote telematics, wireless data acquisition, multimedia and process control.

The 8-bit MCUs won't be going away anytime soon
Despite claims that the 8-bit MCU will soon be obsolete by 32-bit devices, that may not exactly be the case.

Quad output 200W power supplies are compact
With a 3-in. x 5-in. footprint and a height of 1.32-in., Emerson's latest power supplies offer a power density of more than 10 W per cubic inch and are capable of achieving efficiencies of up to 84 percent at full load.

Fairchild minimizes power losses in multi-stage power supplies
Fairchild Semiconductor has developed a CCM PFC controller for 300W to 2kW power supply designs that bring high system efficiency, high power factor and low total harmonic distortion (THD).

Digi claims industry's 'fool proof' programmable ZigBee mod
Digi launches industry's first 'foolproof' programmable ZigBee module with isolated software that speeds ZigBee development.

DAC targets high-end applications at 18/20 bits
Analog Devices AD5791 digital/analog converter yields >1 ppm accuracy, resolution, noise, and output drift; 1 μsec settling and update rate

Raima adds OPC industrial interface to its embedded database
Raima uses Softing's Unified Architecture (UA) toolkit to bring the OLE for Process Control (OPC) standard interface to embedded database applications

Small-sized PA reduces component cost
Targeted at Bluetooth, 802.15.4/ZigBee and other 2.4 GHz applications, California Eastern Laboratories is now shipping its new µPG2251T6M GaAs power amplifier (PA), which eliminates the need for RF component matching.
