An Electronicstalk guide
Start with the news release AMIS ICs drive high-current stepper motors from ON Semiconductor, which we summarised at the time by saying "ON Semiconductor has introduced two integrated driver ICs that will drive high-current motors with reduced component count and board space in stepper motor-based applications. ". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Linear introduces PoE+ interface controllers from Linear Technology Corp: "Linear Technology has brought out the LTC4269-1, LTC4269-2 and LTC4278, IEEE 802.3at compliant Power over Ethernet (PoE+) interface controllers.".
In December 2009, we covered the news from Campbell Collins - take a look at Ericsson DC/DC converters are digitally controlled which says: "Campbell Collins is offering a range of digitally controlled DC/DC converters and switching regulators from Ericsson Power Modules. ".
Take a look also at the news release from ON Semiconductor, Integrated driver ICs drive high-current motors, as well as LTC2463 ADC integrates precision reference from Linear Technology Corp, and Molex offers PSE integrated connector module from Molex UK.
