Smiths Interconnect REP Series connectors offer 30% higher performance and meet stringent standards of rail industry –
now available at Aerco Hypertac®
contact technology ensures durability; high levels of protection
Smiths Interconnect’ REP Series is a range of high reliability, multi-pole, sealed rectangular plastic connectors which comply with the most stringent rail standards. Available now from Aerco, the distributor and stockist of electrical and electronic components servicing hi-rel markets, the REP Series is protected to IP66 and IP67. These interconnects deliver high performance and capacity, plus the shock, vibration and smoke and fire protection demanded by the modern rail industry. Applications include sensors, brakes, signalling, alarms, doors, lighting, air conditioning, seats, passenger information and cabin equipment.
The use of Smiths Interconnect’ well-proven Hypertac® hyperboloid contact technology ensures low
insertion and extraction forces, immunity to fretting corrosion, a long life cycle in harsh environments and superior performance, combined with 30% higher current carrying capacity than standard contacts of the same size.
Manufactured using high quality materials, the REP Series conforms to the fire and smoke requirements of NFF 16-101, NFF 16-102, EN 45545-2 and UL94V0 standards. Shock resistant levels are to EN 61-373. The high protection levels are provided by the use of over-moulded silicone grommet and interfacial seals.

New miniature aluminium electrolytic capacitors from Panasonic benefit from ultra-low ESR values
and a small footprint Long Life (Up To 10,000 Hours at 105°C) And A Wide Temperature Range (-40°C to +105°C)
Panasonic Automotive & Industrial Systems Europe has recently introduced a new series of miniature aluminium electrolytic capacitors (radial lead type) for applications such as Unit Power Supply Output, Noise Filtering, DC/DC Converter and Back-Up Power. New FS series capacitors benefit from low ESR values (down to 12m), a small footprint (one size smaller than popular FR series components) and high endurance of 5.000h up to 10.000h at 105°C.
Fully RoHS compliant, FS series capacitors Kristin Schuetter
“With Mouser Electronics as a global channel partner, InvenSense can better support our customers and enhance our worldwide distribution network,” said Dan Goehl, Vice President, Worldwide Sales, InvenSense. "By capitalizing on Mouser's excellent supply-chain services and support, we can expand our global presence and get our products into the hands of design engineers even quicker.”

Compact, efficient SCALE-iDriver™ IC Family from
Power Integrations supports 1700 V IGBTs New gate driver IC targets applications from 400-690 VAC, including three-level topology inverters
Power Integrations (Nasdaq: POWI), the leader in IGBT and MOSFET driver technology for medium- and high-voltage inverter applications, today announced an expansion of its SCALE-iDriver™ family of galvanically isolated single-channel gate driver ICs. The new devices support IGBT blocking voltages up to 1700 V, which are generally used in 400 VAC and 690 VAC line applications. They are also ideal for the latest three-level topology photovoltaic inverters and for photovoltaic arrays leveraging the new 1500 V DC bus standard. The expanded 1700 V SCALE-iDriver family allows OEMs to use the same highly integrated, safe and reliable driver technology across a range of solutions.
1700 V SCALE-iDriver ICs, optimized for driving both IGBTs and MOSFETs, combine Power Integrations’ pioneering FluxLink™ magneto-inductive bi-directional communications technology with its SCALE™ power device driver technology. FluxLink eliminates the need for unreliable opto-electronics and the associated compensation circuitry, thereby enhancing operational stability while reducing system complexity, and SCALE technology incorporates all key gate driver functions into an ASIC, reducing size and improving reliability while simplifying design. Innovative eSOP package features greater than 9.5 mm of creepage and a CTI of 600, ensuring substantial operating voltage margin and high system reliability.

have been designed for a wide operating temperature range of -40°C up to +105°C. The products feature a rated voltage range of 6.3VDC up to 50VDC, a capacitance range of 27 F up to 10000 F, and a capacitance tolerance of ±20% (120 Hz/+20°C). Leakage current is 0.01CV ( A) after 2 minutes.
Andreas Lapucha, Product Marketing Manager Capacitors at Panasonic comments: “The FS Series provides space reduction and allows for a reduced number of capacitors on the board. Low ESR and high ripple current in the FS Series combine to provide a more stable, long life capacitor alternative. The characteristics of the FS Series promises to be very useful for power instruments, home appliances, set top box, servers and lighting.”
