Capacitors - Power - Heavy Current (ESTA)
-
Vishay ESTA is one of the few manufacturers to offer a complete range of power capacitors. These cost-effective devices for harmonic control, energy savings, and voltage stabilization are highly reliable and environmentally safe, and can be used under the most rugged conditions. Vishay ESTA power capacitors address a wide range of energy-generation applications. Their “green” applications include energy generation in on- and off-shore wind turbines and solar power plants.

Optocouplers/Isolators
-
As safety products, optocouplers are designed to protect sensitive control circuitry or people from high voltages. They galvanically isolate the low- and high-voltage sides of a circuit by using an infrared emitter to transmit the control signal to a photo detector and reduce electrical noise coupling. Optocouplers from Vishay feature high isolation voltages, wide temperature ranges, and a wide range of output configurations to provide a perfect fit for your application.

Capacitors - Polymer
-
Polymer capacitors feature a hight volumetric efficiency that allows smaller devices to have higher capacitance values. Vishay offers polymer capacitors in a variety of surface-mount case sizes for applications such as military, portable consumer, computer/ server, network infrastracture equipment, and many others.Polymer capacitors are constructed with a highly conductive polymer as the cathode system. For the anode, tantanum is used together with tantalum oxide dielectric. This construction gives polymer capacitors all the advantages of traditional tantalum capacitors while reducing equivalent series resistance (ESR) and eliminating manganese dioxide, which is a source of catastrophic failure in tranditional tantalum capacitors.

Sensor Boards
SensorXplorer™
-
Each sensor board can be used together with the SensorXplorer board.The SensorXplorer boards acts as a USB to I2C interface between Vishay's freely available software modules and the sensor boards. The sensor boards also have test pins for the I2C interface, allowing you to connect them to your own platform.

Power ICs - Smart Load Switches
-
Combining multiple functions in a single IC, Vishay smart load switches eliminate the need for external circuitry . A simplified GPIO interface allows for power distribution and sequencing of multiple sub-systems. Slew-rate-control devices provide a controlled supply ramp to reduce inrush current, while fault protection and isolation switches increase robustness with reverse current, overtemperature, current limiting, and short circuit protection features. The ICs offer quick output discharge and small footprints, while their integrated design saves PCB space compared to discrete solutions, reduces BOM counts, and lowers manufacturing costs.

Resistors
-
A passive two-terminal electrical component that implements electrical resistance as a circuit element. In electronic circuits, resistors are used to reduce current flow, adjust signal levels, to divide voltages, bias active elements, and terminate transmission lines, among other uses. High-power resistors that can dissipate many watts of electrical power as heat may be used as part of motor controls, in power distribution systems, or as test loads for generators. Fixed resistors have resistances that only change slightly with temperature, time or operating voltage. Variable resistors can be used to adjust circuit elements (such as a volume control or a lamp dimmer), or as sensing devices for heat, light, humidity, force, or chemical activity.

Non-contacting Position Sensors
-
For use in harsh environments, Vishay offers non-contacting position sensors based on Hall Effect technology. Linear displacement, rotational (single- and multi-turn), and kit design options all provide a full 360° measurement range with no dead angles and very long life, since there is no wear and tear on sensor elements. Applications for Vishay’s non-contacting position sensors include any system where vibration, shock, or dithering is to be expected, such as embedded applications in vehicles.

LED
-
For instruments, switches, icon backlighting, and general and architectural lighting, Vishay offers LEDs in a variety of SMD and leaded packages. Leaded LEDs are available in 1.8 mm, 3 mm, 5 mm, and square 4-lead TELUX packages. Standard and power LEDs are offered in packages with PLCC-2/4 dimensions, while MiniLEDs feature a small 2.3 mm x 1.4 mm x 1.2 mm SMD package. The next smallest package is the 0603 in lead-frame and PCB-based versions, followed by the smallest package in the Vishay portfolio: the new 0402 series. The 1 W Little Star® features a height profile of < 1.5 mm, which is 17 % thinner than a typical PLCC6 package.
