The Optoelectronics group of Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. has introduced a new series of super red, red, amber, and yellow ultrabright LEDs in compact untinted surface-mount packages with dome lenses. Utilizing the latest ultrabright AllnGaP on Si chip technology, the space-saving Vishay Semiconductors VLD.1535.. series delivers extremely high brightness with luminous intensity to 14000 mcd and an emission angle of ± 22° without the need for an external lens.

Vishay Intertechnology introduced a new high-brightness, tricolor LED optimized for interior automotive lighting, RGB displays, and backlighting. Featuring separate red, green, and blue LED chips inside the compact 3.5 mm by 2.8 mm by 1.45 mm PLCC-6 surface-mount package, the Vishay Semiconductors VLMRGB6112..enables individual control of each chip, making it possible to realize every color within the color room defined by the gamut triangle area inside the CIE 1931 color space through color mixing.

Vishay Intertechnology introduced a new metal-core-based cool white LED power module featuring 12 high-brightness LEDs with high luminous flux of 4000 lm each at 1 A. To simplify designs and manufacturing processes, the Vishay Semiconductors VLSL12A03-3Q3T-50A can be combined with off-the-shelf LEDiL quadruple lenses, while its integrated small thermal sensor (NTCS0603E347JHT) and fourfold plug-in connector (87438-0443) eliminate the need for additional soldering.

Vishay Intertechnology, one of the world's largest manufacturers of discrete semiconductors and passive electronic components, today acquired all of the remaining outstanding shares of Taiwan based Capella Microsystems Inc. (GreTai Securities Market: 3582) for approximately NT$668.2 million or US$21.0 million, pursuant to the terms of its previously announced merger agreement with Capella. Capella is a fabless IC design company specializing in optoelectronic products.

Vishay Intertechnology announced a new series of precision thin film chip resistors featuring gold terminations for conductive gluing. Offered in 0402 and 0603 case sizes, the MC ATAU series combines high-temperature operation to + 155 °C with tight tolerances to ± 0.1 % and TCR down to ± 15 ppm/K.

A new family of LEDs in a PLCC-2 package that can handle higher drive currents and thus produce improved luminous intensity is the newest product from the Optoelectronics group of Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (NYSE: VSH). The new VLM.334..seriesLEDs, an advanced modification of Vishay's VLM.31.. series, can incorporate larger chips and are thus capable of withstanding drive currents up to 70 mA.

Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. today expanded its offering of TMBS® Trench MOS Barrier Schottky rectifiers with 16 new 45 V, 50 V, 60 V, 100 V, and 120 V devices that feature a wide range of current ratings from 10 A to 60 A and extremely low forward voltage drop for commercial applications. The devices are offered in the low-profile SMPD package, which is footprint compatible with the D2PAK (TO-263) while offering a lower typical height of 1.7 mm.

Vishay Intertechnology, Inc., one of the world’s largest manufacturers of discrete semiconductors, is broadening its optoelectronics portfolio with the introduction of a new high-power, high-speed 940 nm infrared (IR) emitter for gesture remote control applications. Offering high radiant power of 40 mW at 100 mA, the VSLB9530S is offered in a clear molded, leaded TELUX package with an oval lens designed to support an angle of half intensity of ± 18° in the vertical direction and ± 36° in the horizontal direction.

It is reported that Vishay Intertechnology introduced two new series of 10 mm standard surface-mount 7-segment LED displays in compact, low-profile packages on August 7, 2013. Utilizing AllnGap on GaAs chip technology for high luminous intensity to 2750 µcd typical, the VDMx10x0 and VDMx10A1 series displays are offered in super red, soft orange, yellow, and green for a wide range of applications. The devices released today offer evenly lighted, untinted segments and grey package surfaces. LED displays in the VDMx10A1 series feature common anode configurati...
