‘Interface 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 Monitoring system features Nordic transceivers from Nordic Semiconductor: "Nordic Semiconductor has announced that Spantec has developed a fully comprehensive ANT+ telemedical remote monitoring system using Nordic nRF24AP2 eight-channel 2.4GHz ANT transceivers.".
 
In December 2010, we covered the news from Texas Instruments - take a look at Power-management controller for standard MOSFETs which says: "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. ".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Axiomtek, Low-power network platform for harsh environments, as well as QDR and DDR SRAMs for reducing power consumption from Cypress Semiconductor, and Ocean Blue offers USB video recorder software from Ocean Blue.
