SMT Kelvin shunt resistors provide accurate sub-milliohm current sensing
TT Electronics announced its LRMAP4026 series low resistance metal alloy power resistors designed for power supply, motor drive, and battery monitoring applications. This resistor series provides four-terminal Kelvin precision and high current capacity to all industrial applications, including automotive. Because four-terminal Kelvin connections improve precision, only a small portion of a design’s error budget is […]
high power density chip resistors save PCB space
TT Electronics announced the debut of its HPDC series high power density chip resistors. This specialist design is optimized for power management, actuator drive, and heating applications which benefit from the enhanced heat transfer from the element to the terminal. The use of such high power density components saves PCB area and boosts reliability by […]
Compact 700-W medical grade supply packs more power per cubic inch
TT Electronics announced the launch of its new 700-watt medical-grade enclosed power supply, the TAAM700. With a small 6.7-inch x 3.66 inch footprint, the TAAM700 provides 17.8W per cubic inch and a wide operating temperature range from ‐30°C to +70°C for thermally challenging environments. Coupled with its compact size, TAAM700’s industry-leading power density is ideal […]
Compact ac-dc encapsulated power modules target size-restrictive industrial/medical apps
TT Electronics announced the launch of its PAA and PAAM series of AC-DC encapsulated power modules with industry-leading power density, ideal for space-constrained industrial and medical electronic equipment applications. Available in power ratings ranging from 5 to 150 watts, the PAA encapsulated modules are PCB mountable in a compact footprint starting at 1.1” x 1.5” […]
SMD Metal-Foil-on-Ceramic resistors boast high surge tolerance, low self-heating
TT Electronics announced the introduction of its Metal Foil Chip (MFC) resistors. The MFC series uses metal foil on ceramic technology, which combines the heat spreading properties of a ceramic substrate with the surge tolerance of a bulk metal alloy resistance element. This, in turn, offers lower self-heating levels than thick-film or metal strip resistors and better surge tolerance than thick-film options, making these resistors particularly well-suited for automotive, industrial, and medical […]
Small footprint surface-mount inductors cover wide temperature range for power-dense apps
TT Electronics announced two new surface-mount device (SMD) power inductors: the HM66M series for use in high frequency power conversion systems and EMI filter applications, and the HM78M series for use in high density and high frequency DC/DC converter applications. The TT Electronics HM66M series power inductors are designed for the complex industrial and telecommunications markets. The HM66M is […]
High energy double-sided chip resistors handle up to 6.5 kV surges
TT Electronics announced high energy double-sided chip (HDSC) resistors, the latest addition to its range of pulse withstanding chip resistors. HDSC chip resistors are untrimmed for improved pulse performance – the only double-sided untrimmed chip resistors on the market – and are ideal for industrial and medical applications such as power supplies, circuit breakers, and […]
Busbar-mounted shunt resistor measures currents in the hundreds-of-amps range
TT Electronics announced E-Beam Welded Shunt resistors for industrial and automotive applications. EBW8518 is an electron beam welded resistance element, sandwiched between large copper terminals with optional tin plating.
