TDK Corporation (TSE: 6762) has extended its range of bipolar DC high-voltage contactors to include the new HVC43 (B88269X3**0C011) series. These products complete the existing range by offering continuous currents from 150 A DC to 250 A DC and operating voltages of up to 1000 V DC. The contactors are available in 12 V or 24 V coils with a power consumption of 6 W.

TDK Corporation (TSE: 6762) presents with the B40640B* and B40740B* series hybrid polymer capacitors with a very high ripple current capability increased by up to 29 per cent compared to preceding types. The ripple current capability is now up to 35 A (20 kHz, 125 °C). The new types are designed for a rated voltage of 63 V, cover a capacitance range from 390 µF to 720 µF, and offer an extremely low ESR value. For example, with a cup size of 16 mm x 30 mm (D x H) and an ambient temperature of 20 °C, an ESR of 3.9 mΩ at 20 kHz can be achieved. Even at an operating temperature of -40 °C, the ESR is just 5.4 mΩ.

TDK Corporation (TSE:6762) presents the new L860 NTC thermistor chip which can be directly embedded into power modules and used within sintering and AI-heavy wire bonding. Its characteristics correspond to the common MELF-R/T curve with R100 of 493 Ω. The lead-free chip with ordering code B57860L0522J500 is designed for a wide temperature range of
-55 °C to +175 °C, has dimensions of 1.6 x 1.6 x 0.5 mm.

TDK Corporation (TSE:6762) extends its MiniCell® range to include pressure transmitters in robust stainless-steel casing to measure differential pressure in industrial applications. The B58622M32* series comprises five models that measure between 0 to 500 mbar and 0 to 10 bar. Its compensated temperature range extends from -20 °C to +140 °C and the dimensions are 57 x 34 x 39 mm, including the connections.

TDK Corporation (TSE:6762) presents the new C35 type pressure sensor element, designed to measure a range of 0 to 100 mbar. It combines high sensitivity with extremely low dimensions of just 2.05 x 2.05 x 1.2 mm, enabling compact pressure sensor designs.

TDK Corporation (TSE:6762) presents a new series of very compact EPCOS X2 capacitors for noise suppression. They are rated for 275 V AC and cover a capacitance spectrum from 33 nF to 1 µF. Depending on the capacitance value, the interference suppression components have lead spaces of 10 mm (B32921X* / Y*), 15 mm (B32922X* / Y*) and 22.5 mm (B32923X* / Y*).

Current electronic control units (ECUs) in automobiles use mainly differential signal communications with twisted-pair wires to simplify and reduce the weight of vehicle wiring harnesses.
Among these, the CAN (Controller Area Network) communication system is used for communications that require extremely high reliability such as driving, turning, and stopping.

This is an electric double-layer capacitor with a metal foil laminate film (EDLC/supercapacitors).Low-resistance electric double-layer capacitors (EDLC/supercapacitors) are effective as capacitors for providing supplementary power during peak output, backup during power supply loss, energy harvesting, or regenerative energy storage. They are thin and lightweight, which makes them appealing for use in mobile products.

As the safety and comfort of automobiles increases, more electronic devices are being used in vehicles. Electronic circuits have signal lines and power supply lines, and both require noise countermeasures. TDK’s common-mode filters are characterized by a diverse lineup of products for specific applications including product groups that pursue compact size or a low profile and product groups that adopt an independent terminal structure to meet the harsh environmental conditions of automotive applications. This chapter introduces common-mode filters for power supply lines.
