Our LED devices have been developed mainly in the visible light spectrum for various applications represented by automotive headlamps. By making use of various high reliability and high efficiency technologies centering on LEDs for the automotive lamps, as well as various packaging technologies accumulated through our long history of being pioneer LED manufacturers, we are now focusing on infrared LEDs,...
Every new application design requires a microcontroller or microprocessor. And when making a decision between the two, there are a few factors to consider. An overview of the microprocessor and the microcontroller, and heterogeneous architectures. When deciding between a microprocessor (MPU) and a microcontroller (MCU), the type of application is often a critical factor. The final selection, on the other...
To illuminate a light-emitting diode (LED) at a certain brightness level, an electrical circuit - the LED driver - must ensure sufficient current supply. At the same time having to avoid that the flowing current exceeds the maximum rating what would cause overheating and potentially destroy the LED. Considering that the voltage drop across an LED is approximately constant over a wide range of operating...
JAE‘s (Japan Aviation Electronics) DX07 Series USB Type-C compatible I/O (DX07) connectors are compatible with the newest USB specification and are ideal as new standard interface for different applications. With USB 3.2 and USB Power Delivery, they provide a broad usability. The connectors are available at www.rutronik24.com.
Thanks to extreme further developments, MLCCs are being used in an increasing number of applications. However, one thing is often neglected in the designs: The DC bias behavior that influences the capacitance of class 2 ceramic capacitors. This can lead to the capacitance exceeding the tolerance range of the application for apparently inexplicable reasons and possibly cause technical problems. However,...
