GAIA Converter Announces PGDS-50-O-K Front-End Product
GAIA Converter Inc. (Merignac, France) announced its new PGDS-50-O-K front-end product, which is dedicated to military vehicles to sustain the military specifications of MIL-STD-1275B and complement its family of 50 W power regulators. The PGDS-50-O-K allows enlarging the input voltage from 6 Vdc to 100 Vdc during cranking and transients of vehicle batteries. It is to be used in conjunction with GAIA converter modules with a 9 Vdc to 36 Vdc input range.
The PGDS-50-O-K pre-regulator has four modes of operation; a low line operation down to 6 V/1 S, power fail operation that is below the low line, normal operation in a steady transparency state, and surge up to 100 V/50 msec and spike up to 600 V/20 µsec. The PGDS-50-O-K line of modules is optimized to provide high-power efficiency up to 96% over the whole power range between 4 W and 50 W.

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.
