P-DUKE, a leading power supply manufacturer, recently launched its new line of DC/DC power converters HAE150U and HAE200U, suitable for the harsh environment of railway applications. The HAE150U and HAE200U version features an ultra-wide input voltage range from 16V and 160V and covers all the input power systems of railway applications, which are 24, 28, 36, 48, 72 96 and 110VDC.
‘Out of Stock’ until 2022 and…beyond? That’s right! It is predicted that the current supply chain crisis of semiconductors will last at least three years. And it is about to get worse—last month’s COVID-19 outbreaks in Asia are predicted to create further delays in the global supply chain and exacerbate the global semiconductor shortage.

Orion Fans, a division of Knight Electronics, is no stranger to innovation. The manufacturer recently launched their newest product, Reversible Flow DC fans. What makes the fan unique? By utilizing the newest microcontroller-based designs in their Reversible Direction fans, Orion Fans gives engineers the advantage of both directional flow and speed control in a single fan – a feature that was previously unachievable.
Electronic components can be found in nearly every device that touches our fingertips. They are vital to a multitude of gadgets throughout the world; from the military jet engine, to smart home devices and automobiles, to simply switching on a light. With the evolution of electronic devices in the past century, electronics have become increasingly complex and yet must be increasingly reliable. But what exactly is an electronic component?
EDAC, a global leader of interconnect solutions, recently introduced its new 140 series inline plug and socket connectors. Right angle, vertical, SMT or through hole mounted to the PCB, these connectors are ideal for use in wire harness applications and can be customized to meet your design parameters. They are precisely tooled to fit tight application design parameters or to help facilitate easy drop-in replacements.
P-DUKE now offers HSRP6 and HSR01 non-isolated DC/DC converters. The POL products are installed near the load in the power distribution systems and can simply expand the quantity of output. HSRP6 and HSR01 provide 0.6A and 1A output current. It supports a very wide input range of 9-72VDC and features up to 94% efficiency. The industry-standard SIP3 package is compatible with the LM78 linear to solve the problems of thermal and insufficient output current.
AEM Components, a high reliability component solutions, manufacturing, and distribution provider, recently introduced an innovative CM2822H Series of high-current, high-power density surface mount fuse components. The series also features industry-leading volumetric efficiency (178 mm3) and safe power density (506 VA/mm3@100A), which is about three times higher than existing products in the market.
Conflict minerals have long been an issue in the world, especially in technology. These minerals, such as tantalum, tin, tungsten, and gold, are commonly used in many electronic components, computers, and other products that we use everyday.
The mines that contain these minerals are located in high-conflict areas, which can negatively impact the rest of the world as the availability and price of these minerals go up. The U.S. and other nations have implemented due diligence programs in these areas to regulate the minerals, and monitor and alleviate human rights abuses and armed conflict. However, the question remains, are these measures enough?
