New Product Release: Precision and Power Resistors

Precision and Power Resistors

Johanson is excited to introduce our new product line - Precision and Power Resistors! This new, high power and ultra-high precision (up to 0.01%) resistor line increases JDI's product breadth for designers of power electronics. This new offering is focused on power electronics for industrial, aerospace, medical, telecom and instrumentation markets. Some of the key features and typical applications for each series are as follows: - RWP's ultra-tight tolerance (to 0.005%) is ideal for circuit designs where precise resistances are required. - RWH and RWC both offer excellent pulse handling performance making them ideal for industrial applications such as braking systems. - RKS presents a special high temperature version to 300°C, ideal for military electronics and harsh environment sensors. - RHX is our high power, low inductance (at <10nH and <50nH) series which is good for power inverters, display heaters and more. - RNP is great for test equipment for its low TCR to ± 5ppm/°C. - And finally, our current sense offering RMC and RNC are ideal for power electronic circuits that need precision current-sensing capability. Examples are power management, safety systems and motor control applications.

New Reference Design: ATSAMR21 XplainedPRO

Ian Johnson, our European Regional Manager, visited Embedded World in Nuremberg Germany in February. Highlight of the visit for Ian was the launch of Atmel's new SoC, SAM R21, a single-chip integrating Atmel's ultra-low power ZigBee Solution with a Cortex-MO+-based MCU. The ATSAM R21 Xplained PRO evaluation kit (and reference design) features our 2450BM15A0015 matched balun-filter and 2450AT18D0100 chip antenna.

Wireless Charging devices

Significant Growth in Wireless Charging Market

Wireless charging has been on the market for a few years, but it has yet to experience real significant growth in volume. New standards are emerging which we believe will lead to more rapid growth in the market. With the new standard emerging (A4WP/PMA), there will be a definite need for low loss / high frequency capacitors (a.k.a. high-Q capacitors) and EMI filtering (a.k.a X2Y). Johanson has successes with numerous leading manufacturers with design-ins of High-Q and X2Y. We have:

  • Approval at the company that created the new concept
  • Approval at major chipset companies driving the consortium
  • Approval at leading ODMs in the automotive and consumer markets
  • Now working in Asia to close our first production order

Johanson Dielectrics, Inc., a provider of ceramic passive components, today announced that it has achieved the AS9100 quality management system (QMS) standard certification.

The AS9100 QMS is a stringent standard specific to the aerospace industry and includes the ISO 9001:2000 standard in addition to several complementary requirements. Designed to meet the complex and unique demands of the aerospace industry, it requires that products match specific requirements of customers, international regulatory agencies, and local state and national laws from contract to full documentation and production. Johanson’s quality system is built on a commitment to continuous improvement, and AS9100 compliance will become an integral part of the company’s internal quality processes that have been honed over the last decade.

“We aim to bring extra value to every step we take in our continuous quality improvement processes,” said John Petrinec, CEO of Johanson. “AS9100 is about more than simply training and documentation, but is part of a quality system that is at the core of what our company provides to every single one of our customers. Our lean manufacturing programs and culture of continuous improvement have defined our approach to product development, program management and manufacturing, and our customers can now be assured that this dedication to quality is not only real, but proven.”

Johanson Dielectrics, Inc. is a US based, global supplier of ceramic passive components including High Voltage Capacitors, AC Safety Capacitors, High Power Capacitors, High Temperature Capacitors X2Y® Capacitors, Planar Array Capacitors, Stacked SMPS Capacitors, as well as having a multitude of custom ceramic product and assembly capabilities.
