Supercapacitors resolve the performance limitations of batteries and other current-limited power supplies, bridging the gap between the peak power demanded by the load and that available from the source, and provide backup power if the primary power source fails.CAP-XX supercapacitors enable manufacturers to make smaller, thinner, longer-running and more feature-rich electronic devices such as camera phones, SSDs, PDAs, wireless sensors and medical devices. The company is listed on the Alternative Investment Market (AIM) in London and is based in?Sydney, Australia with sales offices in the UK and USA.With no outstanding debt and more than $400 million in cash, Cree is not currently planning a debt issuance, but it would be better to issue debt before the company was in need of cash, said Swoboda.
Though demand from automobile, cell phone and other consumer applications sink with the weak economy, Swoboda said "The initial signals are positive". The company is expecting some growth in the current quarter, for the U.S. stimulus packaged passed earlier this year is helping cities and municipalities fund new LED projects, Swoboda told Reuters.LEDs are more expensive than conventional lights but consume far less energy and can last for two decades or more. Those energy savings allow companies or cities to recoup their investment in the LEDs in as little as two to three years, Swoboda said.The company has last month posted fiscal third-quarter profit of $4.0 million, or 5 cents per share. Shares in Cree have gained nearly 70 percent so far this year.
Operating from a 2.7V to 5.5V input voltage, the AAT3176 flash driver IC supplies up to 500 mA output current. The dual mode charge pump maximizes power efficiency by supporting both 1X and 2X operation and can be programmed across 16 distinct steps via AnalogicTech's patented interface. Coming in the industry's smallest package for a 500 mA flash driver IC - 20% smaller than comparable devices - the AAT3176 allows designers to build highly compact camera lighting solutions.To maximize design flexibility and minimize programming time, the AAT3176 uses separate external resistors to set maximum flash and movie-mode current. To protect the integrity of the device, the driver features a thermal management system that includes open- and short-circuit protection and automatic soft-start circuitry. A load disconnect feature extends battery life by disconnecting the load during shutdown and reducing quiescent current to less than 1.0 uA.
