RECOM Introduces New Switching Regulator Module
RECOM introduces its new R-78E low cost switching regulator module, which now offers all the advantages of a switching regulator (high efficiency, wide input voltage range, accurate output voltage regulation) but at a price level below $2 USD at quantities of 1000 pieces. According to the company, the R-78E offers a risk-free, pre-tested solution that makes designing a switching regulator circuit redundant.
The R-78E meets all of the most commonly requested specifications. The input voltage covers the 7 to 28Vdc range which allows operation from both an industrial 24V bus or from either a 9 or 12V battery. The converter is fully protected against overload, short circuit and over-temperature conditions. Due to the R-78E’s high efficiency of up to 92%, no heat-sink is required for operation over the full industrial temperature range of -40 to +85°C (+70°C without derating). The compact SIP3 package, TO-220 compatible, measures only 11.6 x 8.5 x 10.4mm, saving precious board space.
This feature set makes the R-78E the most economic choice today for many applications. The R-78E will save engineers significant development time and keep their BOM under budget with this fully functional, fully tested and fully protected power supply solution.

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.
