New products: D36V50Fx Step-Down Voltage Regulators

We have a new set of regulators to announce: the D36V50Fx family of step-down voltage regulators. Measuring a compact 1″ × 1″, these regulators support input voltages up to 50 V and can typically deliver around 5 A of current, although some versions can output much more under certain conditions.

The family consists of six fixed output voltage versions between 3.3 V and 12 V:

  • D36V50F3: Fixed 3.3V output
  • D36V50F5: Fixed 5V output
  • D36V50F6: Fixed 6V output
  • D36V50F7: Fixed 7.5V output
  • D36V50F9: Fixed 9V output
  • D36V50F12: Fixed 12V output

We can also manufacture a customized version for you here in our Las Vegas facility. For example, we could make regulators with a different output voltage that your project needs, or we could replace the 40 V reverse voltage protection MOSFET with a 20 V one for slightly improved efficiency if your input voltage will always be lower than 20 V. If you are interested in customization, please contact us for more information.

Comparison to other regulators

D36V28Fx and D36V50Fx Step-Down Voltage Regulators.

The D36V50Fx regulators are larger and more powerful counterparts to the D36V28Fx family we introduced last year, with the same input voltage ranges and mostly similar characteristics. What distinguishes the two families in performance is that the D36V50Fx regulators can provide roughly double the output current! (At the high end of the input voltage range, the difference is generally less dramatic.)

And since many of our most popular regulators are 5 V modules, here is a graph comparing the new D36V50F5 (in blue) with two of our older high-power regulators, the D24V90F5 and the D24V50F5:

As usual, we are offering an extra introductory special discount on these new regulators, to help share in our celebration of releasing a new product. The first hundred customers to use coupon code D36V50FXINTRO can get up to 3 units of each version for just $11.95 each!

Membrane Switch

What is a membrane switch?

A membrane switch is an operating system integrating key function, indicating element and instrument panel. The membrane switch, also called a membrane keyboard or membrane keypad, is a custom switch assembly that uses pressure to open or close the conducting path in an electrical circuit. The ultimate purpose of a membrane switch is to serve as the interface between man and machine, enabling an operator to communicate with a piece of equipment, instrument, or machinery. Membrane switches are still consistently utilized as user interfaces for a wide range of products from industrial machinery to medical devices to agricultural equipment. Even the most rigorous of industries can count on proven membrane switch technology to provide a reliable, long-lasting human-machine interface.

How about the construction of a membrane switch?

A membrane switch assembly differs from traditional mechanical switches. Membrane switches are essentially a sandwich of thin layers that are bonded together using pressure sensitive adhesives. The layers of a basic membrane switch construction include: a membrane overlay, spacer, printer circuit, rear adhesive, and tail filler. Other electronic components can be implemented, as well, such as discrete LEDs, backlighting sources, and connectors that make membrane switches easy to integrate into other systems or devices. Each layer in a membrane switch assembly serves a different purpose, and custom features require the addition of specialty layers. Depending on the environment and requirements of the application into which the membrane switch plugs into, the construction can vary.
