A new dual ESD/EMI audio filter effectively reduces parasitic noise and increases audio quality in electronic devices such as stereo headsets, mobile phones, portable multimedia players, PDAs or notebooks.
New motor capacitors of the MotorCap P2 Compact series and optimized motor-start PTC thermistors enhance the energy efficiency of refrigerator compressors.
Flat transformers for modular switch-mode power supplies
The future is flat
EPCOS has succeeded in reducing the height of a 100-W transformer from 50 to 15 mm. This has allowed Loewe to reduce the thickness of its new generation of LCD TV sets to only 60 mm.
EPCOS varistors satisfy the extended requirements of the new UL 1449 standard for overvoltage protection. The third edition of this standard went into effect at the end of September 2009.
RF-MEMS significantly improves the transmit and receive quality of mobile phones while also increasing the service life of the battery by up to 25 percent.
The sensitivity of the systems used in wireless automatic metering infrastructures for electricity, gas and water is crucial. SAW filters offer a convincing solution.
Ferrite material N95 boosts the efficiency of power supplies
Minimizing losses
The new ferrite material N95 for power transformers makes power supplies more efficient. This applies particularly to operation under fractional loads for PC and server applications.
Rugged aluminum electrolytic capacitors for start-stop systems
No stress on the automotive electrical system
Start-stop systems make extreme demands on the components in automotive electrical systems. EPCOS has developed rugged aluminum electrolytic capacitors for this purpose. They are characterized by a high current handling capacity and long operating life.
EPCOS subsidiary, Crystal Technology, has developed nonlinear crystals that can convert infrared laser light into a green laser light, thus enabling miniature laser projectors.
A new family of media-resistant pressure transmitters combines ruggedness with miniaturization. Thanks to their extended temperature range, the transmitters are well suited to many applications in process engineering and tool-making.
