Mini-Circuits has introduced a broadband amplifier covering frequencies through 22GHz. The PMA5-223+ provides 2W typical saturated output power, 15.5dB gain, and a compact GaAs pHEMT implementation for RF instrumentation, communications, and radar equipment.
-
Aratas has introduced compact reed relays for precision signal switching. The G6TA series combines 200V DC switching capability with single-inline packaging, two contact configurations, and specified low-level endurance for test and instrumentation circuits.
-
TAIYO YUDEN adds extensive component data within Cadence OrCAD X. The integration makes characteristics for approximately 10,000 capacitors and inductors available within an established PCB design environment, supporting component selection and circuit simulation.
-
Anglia has expanded analogue sourcing through ten authorised supplier agreements. The combined portfolio covers data converters, amplifiers, interfaces and power management, with individual component suitability still dependent on electrical and application checks.
-
Texas Instruments has introduced three chips for AI infrastructure electronics. They cover fast power-rail event capture, 800V DC insertion protection and low-jitter timing for high-speed links.
-
Toray has tested heat-resistant film capacitors in a prototype inverter. Joint research with Nagoya University demonstrated operation at 150°C, while thermal modelling indicates that the technology could reduce the size of an inverter’s heat dissipation structure by approximately half.
-
Cirrus Logic has acquired Italian chip designer INVENTVM in Pavia. The transaction expands its engineering resources and intellectual property in audio integrated circuits and power management, following several years of collaboration between the companies.
-
Bourns has added MF-ASMF resettable fuses for compact protection circuits. The low resistance 0402 PPTC family responds to fault heating while preserving board space in dense low-voltage electronics.
-
Bourns has launched four CSI2F shunt resistor families for power. The devices span 25 µΩ to 200 µΩ and target high current measurement where insertion loss, thermal behaviour and sensing accuracy must be balanced.
-
CML Micro has launched a sub-GHz ISM band power amplifier. The 3 × 3 mm CMX90A002 spans 860 to 960 MHz and operates from supply voltages between 1.9 V and 4.5 V.
