Infineon: CoolMOS P7 available in a
SOT-223 package
Infineon Technologies is expanding its
recently launched CoolMOS P7 technology
with a SOT-223 package. The device has been
developed as a one-to-one drop-in replace-
ment for DPAK. It is fully compatible with
a typical DPAK footprint. The combination
of the new CoolMOS P7 platform with the
SOT-223 package is a perfect fit for applica-
tions such as charger for smartphones, laptop
adapters, TV power supply, and lighting.

Maxim: extend battery life of USB Type-C
devices with flexible buck converter
Developers of multi-cell, USB Type-C prod-
ucts that need higher current, dual input, and
I²C support now have a flexible option with
the MAX77756 24V, 500mA, low quiescent
current buck converter from Maxim Inte-
grated Products. USB Type-C products must
generate an always-on 3.3V rail to detect
USB insertions. Products utilizing the Power
Delivery voltage range (5V to 20V) can gen-
erate an always-on (1.8V/3.3V/5.0V) digital
supply rail for the port controller using the
MAX77756 step-down converter.
Mouser shipping MAX32625MBED Arm
Mbed-enabled development platform
Mouser Electronics is now stocking the
MAX32625MBED Arm Mbed-enabled devel-
opment platform from Maxim Integrated.
The MAX32625MBED board provides a com-
plete, functional system for developing and
debugging a variety of low-power embed-
ded systems, such as sensor hubs, connected
sports devices, wearable medical patches, and
fitness monitors.
GeneSys: high-precision GNSS receiver
for localisation of VRUs and solid objects
GeneSys is offering a new turnkey solution for
the development of driver assistance systems
focused on the localisation of fixed objects
and on vulnerable road users (VRU) partic-
ipating in the road test. The achievable posi-
tion accuracy is ± 2 cm. The key feature here
is Spectra Precision’s SP80 which was greatly
enhanced in terms of functionality and exclu-
sively adapted to the application in a joint
development with GeneSys.
Sensirion: Airspeed sensors revolutionize
workflow with PX4 VTOL drones
The SDP3x is a small differential pressure
sensor and now available in an airspeed
sensor development kit for VTOL (vertical
take-off and landing) and fixed-wing UAV
applications. The reference design was devel-
oped in collaboration with PX4 Pro and is
fully integrated with the open source auto-
pilot. The integration includes a full aerody-
namic software compensation model for the
sensor and pitot tube, making it a plug-and-
play solution.
Arrow Electronics signs global agreement
