The FETBench and PFC Toolkit are novel web-based tools that will allow designers to dramatically shorten design times and speed time to market.
Dual-output buffer for DDR SDRAM modules
Fairchild Semiconductor has introduced a dual-output registered buffer for 184-pin, 2.5V PC200/PC266, 72bit-wide registered double data rate (DDR) SDRAM modules.
Bus hold makes logic more predictable
Fairchild Semiconductor has made a number of additions to its LCX family, the logic industry standard for 3.3V applications.
Found on Fairchild's website, FETBench offers MOSFET device selection, application analysis and a thermal simulation tool.
The upgraded version of FETBench incorporates a powerful Spice-based suite of simulation tools including the Berkeley Short-Channel IGFET Model (BSIM) version 3.1.
This industry-leading device model improves computational performance and reduces design complexity compared with traditional models.
"Using Fairchild's FETBench, designers can quickly predict device performance curves at different operating temperatures without having to do complex tests in the lab", says Claudia Innes, Director of Corporate Marketing.
"FETBench allows designers to save, recall and share critical design simulations".
"For example, a designer can simply reload the circuit design as opposed to inputting this information each time the tool is used".
FETBench is part of Fairchild's Global Power Resource.
This comprehensive initiative enhances and broadens support for customers through its worldwide network of power design centres, system application experts, joint research and development labs, online design tools, application and product tutorials and evaluation boards.
