Power Integrations’ New InnoSwitch3-TN ICs Slash Energy Waste in Appliance Power Supplies by 75%
Beyond the buck regulator: Newest InnoSwitch3 IC family delivers simplicity, flexibility, and industry-leading efficiency in high-output-current designs Power Integrations (Nasdaq: POWI), the leader in high-voltage integrated circuits for energy-efficient power conversion, today introduced the highly integrated InnoSwitch™3-TN off-line, CV/CC flyback switcher IC. Offered in a safety-qualified, compact MinSOP™-16A package and incorporating a 725 V primary MOSFET, isolated feedback, synchronous rectification and secondary-side control, InnoSwitch3-TN ICs enable power supplies that are simple to design and ideal for appliance and industrial auxiliary applications up to 21 W. Silvestro Fimiani, senior product marketing manager at Power Integrations said: "Our new InnoSwitch3-
TN devices support the high output current needed in smart-connected appliances at efficiencies of up to 90%, compared to traditional approaches such as buck regulators that are often less than 60% efficient. InnoSwitch3-TN ICs incorporate all feedback components while supporting isolated, non-isolated, single and multi-output designs for the most compact, flexible auxiliary power supply solution.” The advanced InnoSwitch3-TN flyback controller delivers constant efficiency across the load range and less than 5 mW no-load consumption. The flexibility afforded by FluxLink™ communication technology means that positive and negative outputs are easily achieved. InnoSwitch3-TN ICs can be used in a 5 V single-output power supply, with two positive output rails, or with both positive and negative rails, without any external feedback components. Safety-rated FluxLink technology also ensures reliable synchronous rectification and accurate constant voltage and constant current on the output. The low forward drop of the SR MOSFET also ensures excellent cross-regulation performance. Comprehensive safety features include output over-current and over-temperature protection. The small MinSOP package and low number of external components required for a full PSU design make the InnoSwitch3-TN ideal for compact implementations.

Cover plates with fixing straps for the cases of the AKG, GD and TUF series
Due to the wide range of applications for electronic cases, those must meet both design and functional requirements. For this purpose, Fischer Elektronik are extending the existing AKG, GD and TUF case series to include further designs with cover panels and simultaneously integrated fixing straps. Those case series are designed to accommodate standard Eurocards and non-standard PCBs. The fixing straps of the new cover panels contain special recesses for fixing screws and thus give the user the option of using the cases of the AKG, GD and TUF series for table, wall or ceiling mounting as well as in an environment with vibration disturbances. The mounting brackets are integrated on the long side of the cover panels and allow the cases to be mounted horizontally. For vertical case mounting, however, the straps can also be attached to the narrow side. The new cover panels with integrated fixing straps have the same hole spacing of the fixing points as previous standard designs from Fischer Elektronik, which means that the cover plates can be used as replacement or optional cover panels not only for new developments but also for existing customised case assemblies. In accordance with the standard case surfaces of the AKG, GD and TUF series the cover paels with fixing straps are available in natural-colour and black anodised surfaces. In addition to the standard designs of the fixing straps, the width of the lug, the seize of the recesses for the screws and their position can be realised according to customer specifications. Further customised machining, inscriptions as well as other surface finishes are offered on request. The listed innovations of the optional cover panels with integrated fastening option as well as all innovations from Fischer Elektronik can also be found at

NeoCortec signs agreement with Honeywell to develop wireless mesh technology for fire detection
NeoCortec, manufacturer of ultra-low-power bi- directional wireless mesh network modules, recently signed an agreement with Honeywell Building Technologies, a global leader in fire and life safety, to develop wireless fire detection devices that offer higher reliability, ease of installation and commissioning, and competitive cost of ownership. NeoCortec’s NeoMesh technology will be integrated into Honeywell wireless fire detection products like smoke detectors, modules and audio-visual devices. “We are pleased to work with Honeywell to create a new generation of wireless detectors that pair our wireless mesh networking protocol and stack with Honeywell’s expertise in fire detection,” said Thomas Halkier, NeoCortec CEO.
Designed for versatility and use in different application areas, the NeoCortec NeoMesh wireless mesh networking protocol and software stack is optimised for ultra-low power operation. NeoMesh is ideally suited for wireless sensor network installations where each device is required to send small packets of data infrequently. In such applications, NeoMesh can enable the network to operate on small batteries for several years. Unlike most other mesh network technologies, NeoMesh is dynamic and scalable with very few limits to network size or depth.
“Wireless fire safety systems can offer property owners the agility they need to meet ever-evolving
occupant expectations as building spaces become more dynamic as well as saving costs when it comes to testing and maintenance routines,” said Jurgen van Goethem, vice president and general manager of Fire and Security for Honeywell Building Technologies.
