‘Ieee Standard’
An Electronicstalk guide
Start with the news release Oscillator achieves ultra-low phase noise from Z-Communications, which we summarised at the time by saying "Z-Communications has announced an RoHS-compliant VCO (voltage-controlled oscillator) in S-band for digital radio and fixed wireless applications that require ultra-low phase noise performance. ". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Power-management controller for standard MOSFETs from Texas Instruments: "Texas Instruments has introduced a power-management controller and driver for standard and logic-level N-channel MOSFETs used for low-voltage, secondary-side synchronous rectification. ".
In December 2010, we covered the news from Ocean Blue - take a look at Ocean Blue offers USB video recorder software which says: "Ocean Blue Software has launched its Sunrise USB video recorder software, developed to enable manufacturers to offer an affordable digital replacement for the VCR/PVR.".
Take a look also at the news release from Ocean Blue, Ocean Blue SoCs suited for connected TV products, as well as Gain blocks for cellular bands GSM, CDMA and UMTS from Avago Technologies, and Load board that assesses cooling systems from Elma Electronic.
