The IR3640M PWM control IC is for high performance synchronous DC-DC buck applications including servers, storage, netcom, game consoles and general-purpose DC-DC converters. The IR3640M is a single phase synchronous buck PWM controller with integrated MOSFET drivers and bootstrap diode. The device’s single loop voltage mode architecture simplifies design while delivering precise output voltage regulation and fast transient response. The IR3640M is a feature-rich controller that may be paired with IR’s DirectFET(R) MOSFETs to deliver a highly flexible, efficient solution and, because of its wide input and output voltage range can be used in a variety of high performance point-of-load applications. The IR3640M is designed to drive a pair of N-Channel MOSFETs from 250kHz to 1.5MHz switching frequency, providing designers with the flexibility to optimize the solution for best efficiency or smallest footprint...

The exacqVision EL is a low-cost hybrid video surveillance server that utilizes the same VMS (video management system) software used with all exacqVision servers, packaged in an energy efficient, sleek 1.5 U (2.5 inches tall) compact chassis running an embedded Linux operating system for added reliability. The exacqVision EL is a cost-efficient and highly reliable surveillance server. Using embedded Linux on a solid-state drive ensures that the unit will be able to alert users in the event of a hard drive failure. The EL also makes use of the energy efficient Intel Atom(R) processor and a thermally optimized, compact professional chassis to greatly reduce energy costs. exacqVision EL is a true hybrid surveillance server that incorporates both traditional analog security cameras and the latest network (or “IP”) cameras on the same unit. Every EL server includes 16 analog inputs and up to 24 IP camera inputs for a total of 40 unique cameras per server...

The combination 65-nm 72-Mbit QDRII SRAMs and NFP-32xx Family of Network Flow Processors provides an efficient platform to enable the convergence of servers and networking in next generation unified computing architectures. The NFP-32xx is the first merchant silicon to remove performance barriers in unified computing architectures by integrating high-performance networking, security processing and I/O virtualization with general-purpose computing. The NFP-32xx is the only line of processors backward-compatible with the market-leading IXP28XX, creating a smooth transition for continued support. The 65-nm SRAMs also allow the NFP-32xx to fully utilize the LA-1 interface for latency critical applications in switches, routers, wireless infrastructure and more. Cypress’s QDR SRAMs are the industry’s first 65-nm devices to ship in volume. The 72-Mbit SRAMs feature the market’s fastest available clock speed of 550 MHz and a total data rate of 80 Gbps in a 36-bit I/O width QDRII device, using half the power of 90-nm SRAMs...

The NCP5680, combined with an ultra-thin prismatic supercapacitor, delivers an ideal LED flash and power management solution for slim camera phones and digital cameras. The NCP5680 enables the Lithium-ion battery to support more power-hungry functions for a longer time, this new supercapacitor-based power management solution enables smart phones to offer ever richer functionality. ON Semiconductor’s NCP5680 manages a supercapacitor to drive the LED flash to full intensity, supplying high-peak-current up to 10 A. The integrated driver in the NCP5680 also manages the supercapacitor to handle other peak-power needs – zoom, auto-focus, audio, video, wireless transmissions, GPS readings and RF amplification – extending battery life without compromising slimline design. The NCP5680 integrates all circuitry required to charge the supercapacitor, manage in-rush current and control LED current, thus saving designers development time, board space and component cost...
