The HVC 4420F is designed for the drive of small brush-type, stepper, or brushless motors. It satisfies the latest needs of the automotive industry to provide diagnostics capability newly introduced in the field of smart actuators.This article clearly describes and explains information valuable for our customers related to the features of TDK's HVC 4420F of Embedded Motor Controllers.

The TDK ICP-101xx Barometric Pressure Sensorfamily is based on MEMS capacitive technology which provides ultra-low noise at the lowest power, enabling industry leading relative accuracy, sensor throughput, and temperature stability.

We are transitioning from an age where people drive cars to an age where people provide mobility services and utilize autonomous driving capability. As a consequence, the number of electronic parts used in cars is steadily rising. If even a single component fails, a specific function may be impaired, which as a result, severe performance requirements are placed on the components reliability. TDK provides high frequency power inductors for automotive applications that are designed for outstanding reliability to reduce failure risks – HPL series, TFM series, and BCL series.

Motion- and gesture-based devices from InvenSense are rapidly becoming a key function in many consumer electronic devices, including mobile, wearable, Smart Home, and automotive and industrial devices. Our motion solutions, including gyroscopes, accelerometers, compasses, and pressure sensors, detect and track an object's motion in three-dimensional space, allowing consumers to interact with their electronic devices by tracking motion in free space and delivering these motions as input commands. InvenSense devices across the board have industry leading relative accuracy, sensor throughput, and temperature stability.

TDK Corporation has extended its portfolio of PowerHap™ piezo actuators for haptic feedback with the new miniature rectangular 0904H014V060 and 1204H018V060 actuators. They have dimensions of only 9 x 3.75 x 1.4 mm and 12 x 4 x 1.8 mm, respectively.

TDK Corporation presents a new series of AC filter capacitors that are UL 810 approved at the component level and carry the CE mark. The capacitors of the B32354S3* series are designed for a rated voltage of 350 V AC and are available with capacitance values of 10 µF to 40 µF.

This article introduces a product overview of MEMS microphone.

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 fulfill these characteristic requirements, and power inductors are important components that greatly affect their performance. TDK has a widely varied lineup of power inductor products, and this article describes and explains effective methods for using power inductors, and key points for selecting them, according to the required characteristics of DC-DC converters.

TDK Corporation announces that it has reengineered and improved the EPCOS LeaXield™ active leakage current filter, a unique solution that is able to minimize earth leakage currents in converter-based drive systems.

The individual components in variable-speed drives cause earth leakage currents that cumulatively result in the tripping of the RCD. By using the upgraded EPCOS LeaXield™ active leakage current filter, these earth leakage currents be drastically reduced.
