NEW PRODUCTS recovers. The optocouplers include highspeed LEDs and CMOS detector ICs. For more information, email: support@avagotech.com laminated panel. The tested electrical life of the SH Series is 100,000 cycles with an electrical rating of 50 mA @ 35 VDC. Operating and storage temperature is –40 DegC to 85 DegC. For more information, email: sales@citswitch.com Allegro Microsystems The A4490 is a triple output, step down, switching regulator with an input voltage range of 4.5 V to 34 V. Each output is adjustable from 0.8 V to 5 V with a maximum current of 2 A. It has 550 kHz fixed-frequency switching. Features include a soft start, power-on-reset output, and a 4 mm x 4 mm QFN package. The power-on-reset circuit feature comes with a programmable delay that indicates when enabled regulators are in specification and when the input voltage drops below specification.

With this addition, non-standard washers and spacers are now available without tooling charge in more than 22,800 sizes. They are offered in a choice of more than 2,000 commonly specified and hard-to-find materials, including low-carbon sheet steel, five types of spring steel, stainless steel, aluminum, brass, copper, and nickel silver, as well as non-metallic materials such as nylon. Available sizes range from 0.08 in. up to large washers with outer diameters measuring up to 5.14 in. For more information, email: sales@bokers.com C&K Components The CR Series of snap-in, panel-mount rocker switches are available with circular, oval, or paddle actuator styles, and can be illuminated in white, red, amber, or green colors. Electrical functionality is SPDT/ On-On or SPST/On-Off. The switches fit a 20.2 mm diameter panel cut out with a behind-panel-depth of 22.6 mm. The maximum current rating is 16 A @ 125 VAC and 10 A @ 250 VAC, with a VDE rating of 10 A @ 125 VAC and 6A @ 250 VAC. The switches are available in miniature rectangular styles, single and double power devices, and specialty products.

The singlechannel ACPL-W70L and two-channel ACPL-K73L come in SSO-6 and SSO-8 packages, respectively. They use up to 50 percent less PCB space compared to DIP8 packages, and meet 8 mm creepage and clearance requirements. They provide up to 5 kV isolation voltage protection, and are designed to achieve 55 ns maximum propagation delay, and 25 ns maximum pulse width distortion. A power-up feature outputs low-voltage logic during power loss and provides output logic that corresponds to the input voltage when the power supply 14 applianceDESIGN December 2008 CIT Relay & Switch The SH Series of switches come in nonilluminated, single and bi-colored LED options. Pre-engraved off-the-shelf process symbols include lighted “on/off” and directional arrow symbols in more than 25 cap and actuator options. A 3.3-mm square post for custom actuator designs is available, as is a 12-mm flat actuator combined with a short 0.5 mm travel that is ideal for use under a Control Resources The SmartFan Nimbus-HP is a compact, TRIAC-based fan, pump, and motor control unit.
