n this tutorial we are going to show you how to setup your own temperature and humidity sensor. We are going to use a DHT22 unit, which is a low-cost digital output relative humidity and temperature sensor. The device includes a capacative humidity sensor and a thermistor to measure air temperature DHT22 Specifications Temperature Range: -40
CISSOID, the leader in high temperature semiconductors for the most demanding markets, will present new High Temperature Gate Drivers, SiC MOSFET’s and IGBT Power Modules at PCIM 2019, the world’s leading exhibition and conference for power electronics, intelligent motion, renewable energy, and energy management. The company is introducing a new Gate Driver board optimized for 62mm Silicon Carbide (SiC)
As electronic devices become more advanced, the power supply voltage of LSIs used in them is lowered, so their power consumption can be reduced and their speed increased. However, a decrease in the power supply voltage also causes the requirements regarding voltage fluctuations to become more severe, creating a need for high-performance DC-DC converters to
