As household appliances such as washing machines incorporate more electronic functionality, a low voltage power supply is required to power the LCD and/or microprocessor board. As the only supplier to offer a total SMPS IC solution, Fairchild is dedicated to provide innovative power solutions like Green FPS™. Green FPS allows SMPS to meet or

The nine-stage pipeline architecture of the MIPS32 1004K coherent processing system will support a worst-case 800-MHz base core operating frequency, in a TSMC 65-nm GP process, implementing a two-core, dual-threaded configuration with 32-kbyte caches for each core, as well as the Coherence Manager and Global Interrupt Controller. MIPS Technologi

Designed to withstand harsh automotive environments, the ISL78100 high power integrated solid-state-ligthing driver (SSLD) can drive from 1 to 8 HB (high brightness) LEDs. Capable of operating in boost, buck, or SEPIC configurations, the 4 mm × 4 mm × 0.9 mm QFN-packaged device operates at up to 92 percent efficiency. Features include DC bias cur

The STC5270 from Connor-Winfield is an integrated single chip solution for the synchronous clock in SDH, SONET, and synchronous Ethernet network elements. The device is fully compliant with ITU-G.813 and Telcordia GR1244 and GR253. The STC5270 accepts 2 reference inputs and generates 2 independent synchronized output clocks. Reference input frequen

Central Semiconductor announced the CMAD6001 ultra low leakage diode in the SOD-923 package. This device is a 100V, 250 mA diode with an extremely low leakage current (IR) of 0.5 nA max., and low capacitance of 2.0 pF max. Designed for applications requiring an energy efficient diode in an ultra small package, the CMAD60001 in the FEMTOmini SOD-923

David Báez-López, Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Ryerson University, Toronto, ON, Canada; Edited by Charles H Small and Fran Granville -- EDN, 4/17/2008Designers use PSpice mainly to simulate analog circuits. However, you can also simulate digital filters with it. The main components in a digital filter are delay elements,
