The CLC3800is a triple low cost video amplifier capable of driving 2Vpp into 1 (150O) or 2 (75O) video loads. The CLC3800 features integrated 8MHz, 4th-order low pass filters designed to cleanly pass standard definition video signals while filtering out noise and other unwanted signals, resulting in a crisper, cleaner video signal. The CLC3800 video amplifier offers a fixed gain of 6dB. If additional gain is required, the CLC3801 video amplifier offers a fixed gain of 9dB and the CLC3802 offers 12dB. The CLC3800 can be driven by DC-coupled signals. Its outputs can drive either AC- or DC-coupled loads. Testing

Supertex introduced the HV9919, a pulse-width managed (PWM) controller integrated circuit (IC) designed to drive LEDs using a buck topology. It is well suited for a variety of solidstate
lighting applications, such as: industrial, architectural, signage, or decorative lighting; indicator or emergency lighting; and as a general purpose constant current
source. The HV9919’s hysteretic control function maintains its output current between a fixed minimum and maximum level at all times, ensuring that the LED current will not
change, despite surges in the input conditions. Built-in PWM circuitry in the IC provides true constant color and a high dimming range. Its dimming frequency can be
programmed with a single capacitor. “Supertex’s HV9919 uses high-side current sensing and hysteretic control to accurately regulate output current, ensuring consistency and prolonging LED life,”states Ahmed Masood, Vice President of Marketing at Supertex. “Switching frequency of up to 2.0 MHz permits the use of only small inductors and capacitors in circuit design,
thereby minimizing space and cost in the overall system and making it ideal for solidstate lighting applications with space constraints and lower voltage requirements.”
HV9919 is available in an 8-lead DFN package (HV9919K7-G). It is Green and RoHS compliant.

The AVR XMEGA raises system performance of the venerable 8-bit microcontroller to new heights in some cases beating high-performance 32-bit processors. The 32-MHz MCU features an 8-channel event system and four-channel DMA controller that allows up to eight interperipheral signals and up to four 64 Mbit/s data transfers to occur while the CPU is in idle sleep mode, with no context switching or interrupts required.

The ICs event response time is as low as 31.25 ns — 80 times faster than a conventional 8-bit MCU. Maximum response time is 62.5 ns. The chip can also brag of 100 nA sleep mode with SRAM retention and I/O pins active.

The 1-MIPS/MHz CPU has 32 general-purpose registers and a AES/DES cryptographic engine. In a single clock cycle, the chip can feed two arbitrary registers to the ALU, do a requested operation, and write back the result to any register. The device has two 8-channel 12-bit A/D converters, and six USARTs (one with IrDA modulation), as well as two I2C/SMBus and two SPI interfaces.

The Si5315 is the newest member of Silicon Laboratories’ Any-Rate Precision Clock family that specifically addresses 1 and 10 Gigabit Synchronous Ethernet (SyncE) requirements in Carrier
Ethernet applications. The Si5315 is a simple, feature-rich line card jitter attenuating clock multiplier IC providing synchronization and generation of over 200 popular SyncE frequencies as well as popular T1/E1 rates. Like other Silicon Labs precision clocks, the Si5315 supports jitter attenuation while providing industry-leading jitter performance of 0.6 ps rms. The Si5315 accepts two clock inputs ranging from 8 kHz to 644.53 MHz and generates two equal frequency multiplied clock outputs ranging from 8 kHz to 644.53 MHz. The Si5315 is pin controlled and supports critical SyncE features like hitless switching between input clocks and holdover.

Lattice Semiconductor announced two new, small footprint packages for its widely popular ispMACH® 4000ZE CPLDs (complex programmable logic devices), making them the best-in-class choice for use in high volume, handheld designs that demand ultra low power. The ispMACH 4000ZE family is a new generation, ultra low power CPLD family based on Lattice's highly successful ispMACH 4000 CPLD architecture. The ispMACH 4064ZE device is available now in a 64-ball ucBGA (ultra chip scale BGA) package with a 4mm by 4mm footprint, and the ispMACH 4128ZE device is available in a 132-ball ucBGA package with a 6mm by 6mm footprint, which enable both devices to accommodate the very tight space constraints common with portable and handheld equipment. In fact, the new space-saving packages enable designers to use these ispMACH 4000ZE devices in a board space that is 36% smaller than previously possible. Datasheet: ispMACH 4000ZE

Allen Davis, Senior Director for New Business Development at Kent Displays, held a small sample unit showing graphics in any kind of light level.
"This is a 320 by 160 resolution display," said Davis, "and as you can see it's totally curved. Our technology lends itself to all sorts of applications that you haven't seen before."
The company has developed a paper thin, electronic skin for cell phones and mobile devices that allow consumers to change colors with the touch of a finger. The "eGo" skin uses no power to maintain any color already rendered on the surface.
Albert Green, Ph.D, CEO of Kent Displays, held a cell phone with the new eGo skin. "This unit can be made to match a woman's outfit. She can pick that color because that's what she wanted to wear that day. "We let the user decide how to personalize the unit, not the manufacturer. And we can do this with laptops and computers, MP3 players, video game controllers, stereos, toys, clocks, furniture and even jewelry."
Another hot application is the eTablet, electronic writing tablet that allows the user to write on a screen and erase everything with the bush of a button. The LCD coating called "Reflex" makes it possible for the display to be viewable at wide angles and in bright sunlight, unlike conventional LCDs.
Employee Holly Burton walked out of the clean room and pulled off her mask that was hiding a big smile. "This company is really going somewhere," said Burton. "I'm a mother of three children. You never hear of LCD tech companies making anything in the United States and I am so glad to be working close to home and helping my family grow."
Kent Displays now has a roll-to-roll machine that is capable of producing millions of plastic displays per year. The new technology allows the company to dramatically reduce the cost of manufacture and compete with overseas companies.
"I couldn't be prouder of what we've accomplished here in Kent," said co-founder J. William Doane, Ph.D. while standing outside one of the clean rooms.
The display technology of Kent Displays has its origin at the Liquid Crystal Institute at Kent State University. In 1965 Doane came to Kent with his family to join the Physics faculty and helped form the Liquid Crystal Institute.
"Do you realize that until now, almost all of our new technology developed in Kent was leaving Ohio," said Doane. "Now we can make things right here at home."
Production on the manufacturing line at Kent Displays is expected to begin in January, 2009.

The 6610 is the first of its kind appliance outlet using IDC terminal technology. This novel product allows significant reduction of labour costs by supporting a more efficient assembly
method. Multiple outlets can be banked and wire connections can be bussed, connecting the terminals all at once. The product is especially suited for power distribution units and
appliances with multiple power outputs. The IEC F appliance outlet is equipped with IDC terminals and available for two different wiring versions,
“along” and “across” to the connector pin axis. The terminals accept insulated solid wires with cross section AWG12 / 2.5 mm2 and AWG16 / 1.0 – 1.5 mm2. The component is designed for snap-in mounting and comes with a protection cover. The cover aids in pressing the wires and, at the same time protects from electrical shock. Special versions with an individual quick connect or solder line terminal are available.

- Appliance outlet F according to IEC 60320 with IDC terminals
- Cross sections: AWG12 / 2.5mm2 or AWG16 / 1-1.5mm2
