| | | Tiny Dual H-Bridge Control for Brushed DC Motors |
| Robot Power has announced its Scorpion Nano dual H-bridge motor control for brushed DC motors. Designed for controlling motors in small robots, toys and other mechanisms, the Nano features two independent reversible motor drive circuits. Robot Power claims that the Scorpion Nano is one of the smallest, if not the smallest available dual RC motor controls with channel mixing for skid steer robot control. |

| | | 600W Fanless AC-DC Supplies Target Medical |
| XP Power has released a new series of convection cooled, 600W AC-DC power supplies. The ultra-compact power supplies deliver full load power under a wide range of conditions without additional cooling. The UCH600 series is well suited for use where no forced air is available, or fan noise or the ingress of dirt is undesirable. |

| | | The Art of Voltage Probing |
| Using the right tool for the right job is a basic tenet of electronics engineering. In this article, Robert explores one of the most common tools on an engineer’s bench: the oscilloscope probe, and in particular the voltage measurement probe. He looks at the different types of voltage probes as well as the techniques to use them effectively and safely. |

| | | SiC Modules Enable Power Efficient Designs |
| Microchip Technology has announced its expanded portfolio of smaller, lighter and more efficient Silicon Carbide (SiC)-power modules. Microchip’s SiC family includes commercially-qualified Schottky Barrier Diode (SBD)-based power modules in 700V, 1200 and 1700V variants. The new power module family includes various topologies including Dual Diode, Full Bridge, Phase Leg, Dual Common Cathode and 3-Phase bridge. |
