Now that's low power!
You want low power? How does 27 uW/MHz sound? That's what Cambridge Consultants is claiming for its new XAP5 processor.

Automotive thin-film chip resistor delivers high temperature, high rated power
Vishay has claimed the industry's first professional automotive thin-film chip resistor in a 0603 case size with a high operating temperature up to +175 deg C and a power rating of 150 mW.

Load switches offer precise power distribution
Fairchild Semiconductor has launched a series of advanced load switches with high current limiting accuracy for robust circuit protection.

Buck converters integrate LDO regulators
AnalogicTech has unveiled a new family of high-voltage, high-current, non-synchronous step-down converters capable of providing high-efficiency power conversion from 24-V supplies.

XLoom leverages Altera FPGA development kit for energy, cost savings
Altera Corp. has announced XLoom Communications is leveraging its Stratix II GX FPGA signal integrity development kit to provide a unique BER testing environment that reduces costs and lab space while providing an energy savings.

Actel expands military-qualified flash-based FPGA offerings
High-density ProASIC3 and ProASIC3EL devices from Actel offer low power and high reliability for thermally-challenged and space-constrained military applications.

Energy harvesting module powers wireless sensors
AdaptivEnergy LLC has introduced its Joule-Thief vibration energy harvesting module that is capable of harvesting usable energy at vibration amplitudes that are below the threshold of human perception to power electronics devices.

Power LED offers improved lumens per watt efficiency
Avago's Moonstone 1-watt power LED delivers improved lumens per watt efficiency and high flux output of up to 95 lumens.

Small footprint dc/dc converters deliver high current in open-frame package
Murata Power Solutions has introduced its UEI series of isolated, wide-range dc/dc converters that delivers 50-60 W of power output in a standard PCB-mounted, open-frame package.

Ambient light sensor reduces power consumption, improves display visibility
TAEC has introduced an ultra-compact, photo-IC ambient light sensor for consumer electronics and computer display applications.

NI single-board RIO platform targets embedded system deployment
At NI Week, National Instruments has unveiled new single-board RIO devices that provide a low-cost, integrated hardware option for deploying embedded control and data acquisition applications.

UK team develops lab-on-chip for environmental testing
British microfluidics developer Dolomite Ltd and the UK's National Center for Atmospheric Science have developed a generation of microfluidics-based environmental testing equipment for use in air quality monitoring.

TI overhauls lineup with 15 low-power processors (UPDATE 2)
TI is overhauling nearly all of its DSP lines with 15 new chips that slash power by up to 20X. (Updated with corrected C640x and Blackfin MMAC/mW numbers.)

NXP reworks power-saving green ICs
The semiconductor industry can play a key role in improving power efficiencies, in reducing global energy consumption and in environmental sustainability. This can be done through the way it manufactures devices, how it disposes of end-of life equipment and, most importantly, how it designs components and equipment.

Picowatt chip sets low-power record
A design being called the world's lowest-power chip consumes 10 times less power when active and more than 30,000 times less power in sleep mode.
