Texas Instruments Introduced The TPS7A30, the industry's first -36-V low dropout regulators (LDO). The TPS7A30 paired with positive TPS7A49 voltage, provides designers a complete solution for power applications, analog precision. The devices feature of ultrahigh power failure ratio (PSRR) performance and as low as 16uVrms output noise. The TPS7A30 generates 200 mA, while TPS7A49 manages 150 mA.

The TC94B06 is Class G-amplifier which achieves much higher efficiency than conventional class A / B operation while maintaining the original low-distortion sound. This will allow customers to build ultra low-power amplifiers headphones, while avoiding costly and complex filtering associated with a class-D amplifier. G-class amplifier operates at low voltage supply for the majority of the audio signal levels, but may
increase the dynamic range temporarily when a high level signal will be received. This increases energy efficiency and reduces overall power consumption...
