FEATURED PRODUCTS  

Interface
DS32ELX0421/124 – 1.25 to 3.125 Gbps FPGA-Link Serializer / Deserializer with advanced on-chip signal conditioning to support long, inexpensive cables for factory automation applications.

DP83640 – Precision PHYTER® device delivers the highest level of precision clock synchronization for real-time industrial connectivity based on the IEEE 1588 standard.

DP83848 – 10/100 single port Ethernet transceiver addresses the quality, reliability and small form factor required for space-sensitive applications in embedded systems operating in the industrial temperature range.

DP83849 – 10/100 dual port Ethernet transceiver is a highly reliable, feature-rich device perfectly suited for industrial applications enabling Ethernet on the factory floor.

A/D Converters
ADC161S626 – SPI-compatible, 16-bit ADC with high accuracy, differential input, low-power consumption, and small size—making it ideal for direct connection to bridge sensors and transducers in battery-operated systems or remote data acquisition applications.

Amplifiers
LMH1981– High-performance, multi-format video sync separator ideal for use in a wide range of video applications including broadcast and professional video equipment and HDTV/DTV systems.

LMP7717 – 88 MHz, precision, low-noise, 1.8V CMOS input, decompensated operational amplifier provides optimal performance in low-voltage and low-noise systems, and is ideal for low-power sensor applications where high speeds are needed.

Power Management
LM3000 – Dual output emulated current mode controller designed to convert input voltages ranging from 3.3V to 18.5V down to output voltages as low as 0.6V.
