AnalogicTech has introduced the AAT1239-1, a high frequency, high efficiency constant current boost converter capable of driving up to10 white LEDs (WLEDs) connected in series. Designed for backlight applications in PNDs, eDictionaries, electronic photo frames and cellular handsets, the new driver IC uses AnalogicTech’s proprietary Simple Serial Control (S2CWire™) single-wire interface to dramatically reduce the display flicker that occurs with commonly-used low frequency PWM control schemes.

The processors used in video surveillance are faced with a variety of difficult computational tasks. They must run including increasingly complex tasks in real time such as video analytics algorithms, servicing of high-definition sensors, and network management. Dealing with all of these requires an architecture with a high degree of performance and flexibility. A software configurable processing engine is a good solution for this application.

The ability to radically change encoder parameters based on the scene dynamics results in higher average compression ratios.

AnalogicTech has introduced the AAT2504, an adjustable 3-channel regulator that combines a step-down converter with two low dropout linear regulators (LDOs). Targeted at mobile devices with rapidly changing feature sets, the AAT2504 allows designers to extend system functionality and still benefit from power management integration.

AnalogicTech has introduced a synchronous step-up converter that offers designers extremely high output current in a compact package. Designed to support a wide range of handheld portable applications, the AAT1217 delivers up to 100mA output from a single-cell alkaline battery input, up to 400mA from a dual-cell alkaline battery input and up to 500mA from a single-cell Lithium-Ion battery input while supporting startup as low as 0.85V.

Innovative architecture enables step-down converters to deliver high efficiency and low noise

Higher power density is a key benefit aiding engineers’ ongoing efforts to shrink their product footprint and thickness and thus build smaller micro hard disc drives, handsets, headsets, handheld instruments and other portable devices. By delivering 500mA in a tiny, 2 x 2 x 0.55mm package, AnalogicTech’s AAT1120 step-down converter allows designers to build smaller, thinner systems and still provide all the features and current found in larger footprint devices.

Power density is an increasingly important consideration in a wide variety of high performance handheld systems like smart phones, GPS systems and portable media players that use high capacity batteries. Addressing this need, a linear charger from AnalogicTech offers the industry’s highest charge-current-to-solution-footprint ratio while the integration of the company’s intelligent digital thermal loop feature enables the host system to use a high current linear charger without the risk of pulse charging the battery.

Portable system designers who want to guarantee that the battery charges at maximum available current during simultaneous system operation must typically build that functionality into the system with discrete components. By continuously monitoring the power needs of the system during operation and automatically adjusting charge current accordingly, AnalogicTech’s AAT3670 delivers the highest possible charge current to the battery and thereby minimises battery charge time, while reducing parts count, BOM and PCB board space requirements.

Many portable system designers face the daunting task of creating a high voltage (5V or higher) power bus in systems powered by a single-cell Lithium-ion battery without violating extremely tight space constraints. AnalogicTech’s AAT1210 is the industry’s first boost converter to supply this high voltage/high current source and still allow designers to use extremely small external components including inductors under 1mm in height, thus achieving a total solution less than or equal to 1mm tall.

SAN JOSE, CALIF. -- FEBRUARY 5, 2007 - Summit Microelectronics Inc., the world leader in programmable power management integrated circuits, today announced Nokia Growth Partners, the later-stage focused investment arm of Nokia, has led a growth financing investment round in the company. The $10M round includes Nokia Growth Partners contributing $4M with existing investors, Norwest Venture Partners, Pequot Capital, Bessemer Venture Partners, Hotung Capital Management, and others contributing $6M.

As a growing number of smart phones and other handheld devices operating off a single-cell lithium-ion battery add higher levels of processing power and begin to serve as central computing platforms, users are demanding connectivity to other peripheral devices. By integrating a boost converter with a current-limiting load switch, AnalogicTech’s AAT1275 power management IC allows designers to boost voltage and provide the protection needed to simply and efficiently host a USB port on these new computing-intensive convergent portable systems

Developed with space-constrained portable applications in mind, AnalogicTech’s AAT1149 high performance, fast transient, 400mA step-down converter enables the use of the industry’s latest 0603 footprint, 1mm high inductors for the smallest possible total solution size.

Ottawa, Canada. - December 6th, 2006 - Wi-Sys Communications Inc., a leading manufacturer of high performance GPS, Wireless and Satcom antennas, RF modules, Timing and Telematics solutions, today announced the launch of the WS3938 Ultra Compact 2.4 GHz Embedded & Covert Mount Antenna.

By combining a high current charge pump, backlight/keypad drivers, a high output flash driver, and two general purpose LDOs in a single 4x4mm package, and by retaining independent control of the backlight/keypad and flash functions, AnalogicTech’s AAT2842 offers portable system product developers an attractive way to lower parts count, lower the system BOM cost, and build more compact systems without compromising their design flexibility or circuit performance.

As mobile and personal electronic product designers embed higher performance cameras in their next-generation products and flash current levels increase, they need flash ICs that can protect the LEDs while delivering high power output with excellent control in a small package. By combining a flash timer and high flash current drive with 32-step digital current control, AnalogicTech’s AAT3170 delivers unprecedented ability to optimise LED flash performance for a wide variety of next generation designs while providing complete flash LED protection.

ELECTRONICA, Munich, November 14th, 2006. By combining a high performance charge pump, with backlight, flash and RGB drivers into a single 4 x 4mm IC controllable by a serial interface, AnalogicTech’s AAT2830/31 reduces parts count and system footprint, offering handset and portable system designers an exceptionally high level of integration and configurability
