‘Passive Components’
An Electronicstalk guide
Start with the news release Linear Technology launches power manager ICs from Linear Technology Corp, which we summarised at the time by saying "Linear Technology has launched the LTC4160 and LTC4160-1 power manager ICs for single-cell lithium-ion-/polymer-battery-based applications.". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Rack-mount PCs suit military applications from Steatite Group: "The Wordsworth Division of Steatite has introduced a range of pre-configured 19in rack-mount PCs that are designed for industrial and military applications. ".
In October 2009, we covered the news from Mornsun America LLC - take a look at Mornsun coverters have 6000V DC isolation which says: "The G Series and H Series of 1W DC/DC converters from Mornsun America feature 6000V DC input-to-output isolation.".
Take a look also at the news release from Freescale Semiconductor, Freescale microcontroller aimed at car safety apps, as well as Ramtron beta samples wireless memory product from Ramtron International, and Ittia develops database for embedded systems from Ittia.
