Integrated Circuit ProductsiC MFL 8 channel fail safe FET driver with AEC Q100 qualification by iC Haus iC-MFL is a monolithically integrated, 8-channel level shifter to drive Logic FETs. The internal circuit blocks have been designed in such a way that with single errors, such as open pins or the short-circuiting of two outputs, the iC-MFL output stages switch to a predefined, safe state. Externally connected FETs therefore shut down safely in the event of a single error. The device is now qualified for typical SIL/ASIL applications according to AEC Q100

"Now it is the right time to start up with LED and LASER systems " said Dr. Huber, who has located iC-Haus as an important partner for integration with microelectronic systems and opto-ICs. ...More >> Quadrature Clock Converter Integrated Circuits LSI/CSI announces the addition of five new devices to its family of Quadrature Clock Converter ICs. Designated LS7082N1, LS7083N, LS7084N, LS7183N and LS7184N, these devices are designed to interface between incremental encoders and counting devices by converting the encoder quadrature outputs into directional up/down clocks or clock and direction signals for driving the counting devices. When interfaced with microcontrollers, these devices can free up the resources of a microcontroller by relieving its computational burden used for decoding the quadrature signals. This is especially true at high speeds where the microcontroller becomes an unwieldy tool in performing the task effectively.

A Powerful Family of Multi-Mode Counter ICs with Interfaces for Incremental Encoders ![]() LSI/CSI introduces the LS7766, a robust addition to its family of encoder interface and motion control ICs. The LS7766 supersedes its rivals in versatility and system throughput. Available in either single-axis, or dual-axis versions, it has a count range of 32-bits to support applications where large magnitudes of data are involved. Its configurable Octal/Hex parallel IO bus enhances the system throughput by a factor of two over its predecessors. Its many configurable counting modes relieve the host micro-controller of various control and data formatting tasks reducing the burden on its resources. The LS7766 can directly interface with an incremental encoder. The quadrature signals from the encoder are validated with internal digital filters to eliminate errors from induced noise and encoder dither, providing a high level of reliability. The filtered signals are decoded for clock and direction before applying to the 32-bit counter. Alternatively, the count inputs can be configured to function in the non-quadrature mode if encoder interface is not required. ...More >>Step Dimmer IC with AGC Touch Control by LSI/CSI

LSI/CSI Offers Quadrature Counter Interface for Incremental Encoders - Features Multi-Mode Counting The LS7166 is a programmable quadrature counter IC providing an efficient hardware solution for acquiring position data directly from incremental encoders. Acting as a peripheral device, it can relieve the host processor of the time intensive task of tracking the encoder motion clock by clock, allowing the computational resources to be allocated for processing the collected data. The IC is programmable to function in several counting and input/output modes, configurable by four write accessible mode control registers. A 3-state octal bus facilitates communication with host processors. LS7166 includes the following features: • 24-bit up/down counter for accumulating encoder positional data • 24-bit input register along with its companion 24-bit comparator for target position

LSI/CSI Offers a Step Dimmer IC with AGC Touch Control The LS7541 is a cost-effective Step Dimmer CMOS IC capable of producing one, three or four-step lighting sequences. The LS7541 is a new addition to a family of Lighting Control ICs offered by LSI/CSI, a Melville, NY Company. The LS7541 is the main component for built-in or screw-in touch-adapter lamp modules that convert any metallic part of a lamp to a touch pad for control of lighting intensity. The AGC (Automatic Gain Control) feature of the LS7541 allows the modules to convert any size lamp to touch control, independent of line plug polarity. The touch-adapter modules provide lamp owners with ease of use and energy savings while eliminating the need for costly multi-filament bulbs. Touch-adapter modules compatible with 50Hz/60Hz AC Line frequencies and any AC Line voltage can be produced using the LS7541.
