Würth Elektronik introduced its new molded flat-wire inductor. The compact inductor measures just 2.0 × 1.6 × 1.0 mm in its smallest package. It also impresses with an exceptionally low resistance and more.

TDK Corporation has expanded its CGA series for automotive multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs) to 10 µF at 100 V in 3225 size, with X7R characteristics (Class Ⅱ dielectric).

This series of articles delves into the design principles of power filters for switched-mode power converters and similar applications, focusing on conducted and radiated emissions. Part 2 will examine specific aspects of switched power converters.

Now available in a vibration-resistant version: Aluminum Electrolytic and Aluminum Hybrid Polymer capacitors from Würth Elektronik.

TDK Corporation announces two new additions to its high-voltage contactor portfolio for harsh environments: the HVC43MC with integrated mirror contact and the HVC45 with enhanced short-circuit current handling capability.

TDK Corporation has introduced tube magazines for several ring core chokes series as an alternative packaging to the blister tray in a cardboard box.

Explore the impact of the return path impedance and the return current level on common-impedance coupling between circuits. The measurements presented were performed on a custom PCB containing audio, video, and high-current circuitry, where the return paths for each circuit were selectively shared with other circuits.

Often overlooked during the development of appropriate spacings (creepage distances) for safety-certified products is the failure to account accurately for the material group of the components involved. This oversight can have significant implications. Let us briefly explore this issue to raise awareness among readers.

Technology giant Apple is reportedly testing the use of additive manufacturing (AM) technology (also...

A few basic system components are frequently used to mitigate or suppress electromagnetic interference (EMI) in devices. As engineers and technicians involved in compliance engineering, it is important to know what these components are, what they do, how they’re most effective, and when they’re ineffective.
