Stackpole Introduces RVC Series For High Voltage Applications

Power Channels: Power Components

Stackpole introduced the RVC Series medium voltage chip resistors from Stackpole which the company says offer excellent voltage handling at low cost. According to the company, many other high-voltage resistors have higher costs due to unusual manufacturing processes or materials used. The RVC Series is designed to achieve high-voltage handling without requiring the use of expensive materials or low speed high precision manufacturing processes. Voltage ratings range from 100V for the 0402 size up to 3KV for the 2512 size. The RVC Series provides standard 1 and 5% resistance tolerances and TCR values as low as 100 ppm.

The RVC Series is well suited for applications requiring high-voltage handling, yet don’t require extremely high resistance values, or low TCR’s and tolerances, such as patient monitoring equipment, test equipment, instrumentation, networking and telecom equipment, motion and robotics controls, and high-voltage power supplies. They are also frequently specified for applications requiring a resistor that can withstand repetitive ESD events.

The RVC Series is available in tape and reel packaging in quantities from 4 to 10K per reel depending on size. Pricing varies with size, tolerance, and resistance value and ranges from $0.04 to $0.24 each in full reel quantities.

Energy Efficiency with Class D Amplifier Modules

Class-D switching amplifiers are helping audio designers create personal multimedia devices and home audio/visual systems that demonstrate how compact and stylish equipment can also deliver high sound quality and high audio output power. The key to this breakthrough, providing freedom from the large and bulky boxes housing traditional audio products, lies in the class-D amplifier’s high energy efficiency, which is typically around 90%. This allows designers to reduce or eliminate heatsinks as well as using smaller-sized PCBs and smaller components such as transformers, connectors and power supplies.

The Role of Hall Effect Sensors in Power Distribution Infrastructure

Power distribution units (PDUs) form an essential part of modern computing and data communications hardware. They provide multiple outputs for transferring electrical power with maximum efficiency, controlling the power capacity and safeguarding against the possible causes of supply interruption. With an ever increasing need from tech savvy consumers for higher data throughput and greater quantities of data storage capacity, as well as tough international legislation now governing CO&sub2; emissions, the demands being placed on these units are proving challenging for engineering teams to satisfy.
