Start with the news release MSC distributes YDS DC/DC converters from MSC Vertriebs, which we summarised at the time by saying "MSC is now offering the 95DW-R3 series 20W DC/DC converters from YDS, which can be used in various measurement equipment and other device requiring a precisely regulated voltage. ". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release PFC/PWM controller targets power engineers from Fairchild Semiconductor: "Fairchild Semiconductor is offering the FAN6920MR, an integrated critical mode PFC and quasi-resonant current-mode PWM controller.".
 
In December 2010, we covered the news from Austriamicrosystems - take a look at Hall-sensor IC for low power HMI applications which says: "The AS5013 contactless magnetic encoder IC monitors the displacement of a magnet incorporated in a knob relative to its centre position and provides X and Y position information via an IC interface.".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Trenton Technology, Compact four-in-one cluster computing system, as well as Current sink LED platform suits handheld displays from Semtech, and LED backlighting for feature-rich consumer devices from ON Semiconductor.
