STGD18N40LZ new IGBT series - Market's smallest
high-performance pencil coil electronic ignition
driver |
| |
The STGD18N40LZ is based on ST's PowerMESHTM technology
and offers an optimum trade-off between chip size and
performance. Its very low ON saturation voltage and high
current capability make this device the ideal solution for
pencil coil electronic ignition applications. More |

SMM4F series - 400 W high temperature Transil in
ultra slim STmite package |
| |
The new SMM4F Transil series is housed in a flat 3.8 x
1.9 mm STmite package and is able to protect against 400 W
10/1000 μs surges, providing an excellent power
capability/size ratio. With a VRM voltage range from 5 to 33
V, it can fit most applications. The low leakage current (0.2
uA and 1 uA max respectively at 25 and 85 oC) makes it
suitable for portable equipment where power consumption is a
key issue. More |

STCS1 - 1.5 A Iout, 40 V max Vin, linear voltage
regulator constant-current LED driver |
| |
ST is responding to an increasing market demand for LED
driver applications by introducing the STCS1. This device is a
1.5 A Iout constant-current regulator operating with an input
voltage range from 4.5 V to 40 V specifically designed to
supply high-brightness LEDs. The device is ideal for
applications requiring high-voltage input and is able to
withstand voltage spikes of up to 45 V. More |

STM6904 and STM6905 - Multi-voltage monitoring for
complex systems |
| |
Today's system designs often have more than one
processor, ASIC or FPGA with each having more than one voltage
supply. These complex ICs can be safeguarded with the STM6904
/ STM6905 ultra-low current multiple voltage monitors. They
can monitor four and five voltage rails with a tight accuracy
of +/- 1% and a low current consumption of only 12 uA. More |

PM6641 - Monolithic multi-output regulator for
multimedia applications |
| |
The PM6641 voltage regulator is designed to supply real
estate constrained portable systems and, specifically, DDR2/3
memories and chipsets in ultra-mobile PCs. This all-in-one
solution integrates three independent, adjustable buck
converters, a +/-2 Apk low drop out (LDO) linear regulator and
a +/-5 mA low-noise buffered reference. More |

STDVE003A - World's first 3.4 Gbit/s active HDMI v
1.3 equalizer IC |
| |
The STDVE003ABTR supports video data-transfer rates up
to 3.4 Gbit/s, thus offering 16-bit deep color for a true HD
picture. This data-transfer rate complies with the latest HDMI
1.3 specifications, providing designers with a cost-effective
solution for multiple HDMI input ports in TVs, whilst
maintaining the highest level picture quality even after long
cables. More |
