Online application guide offers switching topology component overviews
Würth Elektronik provides the new Web Application Guide at https://www.we-online.de/applicationguide/en. The easy-to-use tool offers the most common switching regulator and interface topologies – for example, buck converters, CAN, or Ethernet interfaces – and an overview of which components are required for them. From here, there is a direct link to ordering free component samples. With […]
High-current inductors feature high saturation currents
With innovative improvements in its internal design, the latest model of WE-HCF-SMT high-current inductors from Würth Elektronik sets new standards in its class. WE-HCF in the 2010 design offers significantly better characteristics than previously available inductors in this size: inductance values up to 2 μH and saturation currents up to 25% higher than comparable products in the […]
Eval board wrings out LED power modules, includes analog and PWM dimming
With the MagI³C-LDHM (LED Step Down High Current Module) Power Module, Würth Elektronik now has the perfect solution for LED power supply in its portfolio. To make it even easier for developers to use these DC-DC converters with integrated controller IC, inductors, and capacitors—Würth Elektronik now offers an LDHM Evaluation Board. It integrates an efficient […]
SMD transformers optimized for SiC MOSFET gate drivers
The WE-AGDT series makes a new SMT assembly transformer available, which, at the same time, is part of a power supply solution developed by Würth Elektronik for demanding gate control of SiC MOSFETs. The innovative WE-AGDT is a compact transformer in an EP7 package. It features a wide input voltage range from 9 to 36 […]
PLCC-packaged LEDs feature homogeneous color perception
Würth Elektronik has doubled its product range of SMT assembly white top view LEDs to 30 models. The 3014, 3030, and 5630 packages of the WL-SWTP product group have been expanded to include the “A series”. These new LEDs in PLCC packages feature the best possible lumen per watt ratio and MacAdam binning, thus achieving […]
SMD-packaged LEDs target horticulture apps
SMT mountable LEDs in a 2835 package extend Würth Elektronik extensive range of horticulture LEDs. The three WL-SMTW series LEDs emit light of the wavelengths 450 nm (Deep Blue), 660 nm (Hyper Red), and 730 nm (Far Red) – ideal for applications controlling plant growth through specific light mixtures. Besides vertical farming and lighting in […]
Small coiled metal-alloy power inductors boast high saturation current, high permeability, low resistance
Würth Elektronik announced WE-MAPI, one of the world’s smallest coiled metal-alloy power inductors. It is characterized by a high saturation current, high permeability, and low resistance. The most important area of applications for the WE-MAPI range are high-performance DC/DC converters with a high efficiency for switching frequencies of up to 20 MHz. New additions to […]
Adhesive gap-filler material mates hot components with cold heat sinks
With its WE-TGF (Thermal Gap Filler) Würth Elektronik now offers a new solution for heat dissipation. The outstanding feature of the self-adhesive gap-filler material: The non-conductive barrier with a high dielectric strength has a high thermoconductivity index of 1 W/(m*K). The material easily adapts to the differing thicknesses of components on the PCB and fills […]
Online platform compares aluminum-electrolytic, aluminum-polymer capacitors
REDEXPERT, the online platform for the simulation and selection of electronic components on the basis of real measurements, now has a considerably expanded presence. Würth Elektronik has heeded its customers’ suggestions from the practical area and has installed a feature that enables the direct comparison of aluminum-electrolyte and aluminum-polymer capacitors. The calculation of the ripple […]
