exas Instruments (TI; NASDAQ: TXN) added a duo of new RF DC/DC switching converters to
its industry leading portfolio of RF power manage- ment integrated circuits (ICs). The new National LM3242 and LM3243 regulators are adaptive power supply ICs that minimize power consumption of the RF power amplifier (PA) across all operating condi- tions. Together with the National LM3241, the ICs extend battery life and reduce heat dissipated in battery-powered 2G, 3G and 4G long term evoluti- on (LTE) portable devices such as smartphones and tablets.

These tools allow engineers to select a sensor, design and configure the solution and download configurati- on data to the sensor AFE for immediate prototyping. For more information and to order samples, visit

hermo Fisher Scientific Inc. announced the Pittcon debut of the Thermo Scientific Nano-
Drop Lite, a compact, personal UV-Vis microvolume spectro- photometer that com- plements full-featured Nano- Drop™ 2000/2000c and Nano- Drop 8000 instruments.
Texas Instruments also introduced two configurable analog front ends (AFE) that provide an easy-to-use, modular solution for bridging the gap between the microprocessor and sensor. Design engineers can dramatically reduce their development time by using a single AFE across multiple nondispersive infrared (NDIR) gas sensor and pH sensor platforms instead of designing several complex discrete solutions.

The new instrument is small en- ough to fit in a drawer, but powerful enough to help accelerate life science workflows related to sequen- cing, PCR/qPCR, protein isolation, antibody produc- tion, HLA typing and other applications. Thermo Fisher Scientific also announced the Pittcon debut of its new range of Thermo Scientific SOLA solid phase extraction (SPE) cartridges and plates.
