encapsulated models ranging from 10 W to 30 W. The
PDQ10-D, PDQ15-D and PDQ30-D output 10 W, 15 W
and 30 W of power respectively in an industry standard
1” x 1” package, making them ideal replacements for
larger 1” x 2” modules. The PDQ-D models also feature
a 4:1 input voltage range of 9~36 or 18~75 Vdc with
high typical efficiencies up to 90%.
Housed in a compact, low-profile DIPpackage with a five-
sided, shielded metal case, the rugged, encapsulated
modules measure just 25.4 x 25.4 x 10.16 mm (1 x 1 x
0.40 in) and come available with single regulated output
voltages of 3.3, 5, 12 and 15 Vdc or dual regulated
output voltages of ±5, ±12 and ±15 Vdc.
Thanks to its wide -40 to +105°C operating temperature
range and encapsulated design, the PDQ-D series is
suitable for convection-cooled equipment and harsh
environments with target applications that include
telecom, industrial, remote sensor systems and portable
electronics.
All PDQ-D models offer an input to output isolation of
1,500 Vdc and feature remote on/off control while single
output models also offer output voltage trimming that
allows for a ±10% adjustment of the nominal output.
Protections for over voltage, input under voltage lockout
and continuous short circuit are also included.
The PDQ10-D, PDQ-15-D and PDQ30-D are available
immediately with prices starting at $21.84 per unit at
100 pieces through distribution. Please contact CUI for
OEM pricing.
Visit CUI’s booth (Power Hall A2, Booth 613) at
electronica 2016 where the company will be showcasing
the three new PDQ-D series and the rest of their power
portfolio ranging from 1 W to 12,000 W. electronica is
the world’s leading trade fair for electronic components,
systems and applications, and will be held at the Messe
München in Munich, Germany from November 8-11,
2016.
Vishay Introduces New Analog Switch
Product Families Built on Advanced Silicon
Process That Improves Analog Circuit
Performance and Reliability
Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (NYSE: VSH) today
announced that it is upgrading several Vishay Siliconix
analog switch products to boost device performance
and longevity. Replacing aging silicon technology with
an advanced process that improves a range of device
parameters while ensuring a useful lifetime well into the
future, the move signals Vishay’s continuing support for
its analog switch and multiplexer product lines, which the
company pioneered in the 1960s.
The new enhanced family of analog switches and
multiplexers introduced by Vishay Siliconix is designed on
a high-density 18 V process. The process not only offers
an upgrade path for customers using Vishay’s current 12
V series products, but also enables Vishay to develop
new precision analog products with higher complexity for
sensitive analog designs.
Key improvements to device specifications include an
increase of the operating voltage from 12 V to 16 V;
lower leakage, reduced parasitic capacitance, and faster
switching speeds; and enhanced ruggedness, with higher
latch-up current and ESD protection ratings. For example,
the new DG9408E and DG9409E — drop-in upgrades for
the popular DG9408 and DG9409 — feature 20 % lower
switch on-resistance, 10 % faster switching speeds, 35 %
lower parasitic capacitance, enhanced latch-up capability
to 400 mA, and guaranteed ESD protection to 2.5 kV
(human body model).
Vishay is building the new devices on a mature process
platform in an established facility with an eye towards
shortening lead times and fully supporting the long life
cycles of these analog switch products, which are widely
used in such market applications as industrial control
and automation systems, audio and video signal routing,
instrumentation and test equipment, data acquisition,
communication systems, and medical and healthcare
systems.
“These new products are the first in a series of
innovative analog devices that this new process enables.
We’re confident that customers who adopt these new
products will see performance improvements in their
precision analog circuit designs,” said Roy Shoshani,
vice president, power ICs at Vishay. “We know that our
customers designing for applications such as industrial,
