EL SEGUNDO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 13, 2003
International Rectifier, IR(R) (NYSE:IRF), introduces two new families of Advanced Analog 120W output DC-to-DC converters that are DSCC SMD qualified, offering enhanced reliability. The newly SMD qualified products are operable from nominal inputs of 50V (AFL50 series) and 120V (AFL120 series). The AFL12005S converter provides as much as 80% efficiency at nearly 25% more power at 5V output than the closest competing device. The AFL12003R3S is a 3.3V output converter with up to 72% efficiency.
The product families are designed for rugged operating environments and wide temperature extremes encountered in commercial and military avionics, weapon control and targeting systems. The products are also well suited for new design platforms where small size and lightweight are critical.
Standard microcircuit drawing (SMD)-qualified products are recognized for their reliability and trace-ability. As a result, DSCC SMD qualified products are preferred over standard products that are not SMD qualified.
"In addition, SMD qualified devices expedite the design-in process for many government programs, since a non-standard part approval request is not required," said Tiva Bussarakons, Director, Technical Marketing at International Rectifier's Advanced Analog group.
The AFL50 Series is designed to operate with an input voltage range of 30V to 80V, and the AFL120 Series is designed for 80V to 160V input.
The products are equipped with today's market demand for functionality and ease of system integration, on/off command with primary or secondary referenced, soft start turn-on, synchronization, under-voltage lockout and parallel operation for increased power requirements. The key features are parallel operation with equal current stress sharing and high power density of up to 80W per cubic inch. The standard single output converter voltage range is 3.3V to 28V, while the standard dual output voltages are +/-5V, +/-12V and +/-15V.

SEATTLE, Aug. 29 /PRNewswire/ --
Market Resources, a market research firm, today released the findings from a study entitled "Managing the Workplace" that concluded that liability issues resulting from Internet use in the workplace are the primary concern of information technology (IT) decision-makers. The study, which consisted of feedback from IT professionals at 367 organizations nationwide, found that 69 percent of those polled listed the fear of liability as their biggest concern, and 60 percent felt that liability concerns required a solution within a year.
The issue of legal liability has surfaced in the last couple of years because of the increasing use of the Internet in the workplace. According to The Center for Internet Studies, more than 60 percent of companies have disciplined employees and more than 30 percent have terminated employees for inappropriate use of the Internet. The "Managing the Workplace" survey, sponsored by Internet access management company N2H2, also showed that the use of filtering software has become one of the primary solutions being adopted by organizations hoping to curb inappropriate Internet use. Filtering software helps protect organizations by tailoring Internet content according to specific employee groups, thus dramatically reducing the potential for Web sites deemed pornographic.
"This study clearly shows that many organizations are becoming aware of the legal risks associated with Internet use in the workplace," said Nina Rook of Market Resources, who conducted the survey. "For this reason, employers are recognizing the huge potential risks of Internet misuse and are actively pursuing immediate remedies such as filtering software."
Other key findings from the survey include:
-- The categories of material that were given highest priority for
blocking were liability related categories, specifically 87 percent of
the managers surveyed rated the pornography category as a high
priority.
-- 46 percent of the companies were blocking access to specific URLs using
a filtering tool.
-- 47 percent of the companies were monitoring sites visited, using
reporting features to later to locate questionable Web sites.
"The serious concerns employers have about misuse of the Internet are driving the rapid adoption of filtering software," said Philip Welt, president and CEO of N2H2. "Employers are increasingly recognizing that filtering software can enable organizations to limit potential legal liability, conserve bandwidth and increase user productivity."

N2H2's unique product offerings include N2H2 Internet filtering for Microsoft ISA, Microsoft Proxy 2.0, Check Point FireWall-1, Volera Excelerator and N2H2's i2100 Internet Filtering Appliance. N2H2 uses sophisticated artificial intelligence (AI) technology and expert human review to provide the most comprehensive and accurate categorization of the Internet.

Super Serb Ana Ivanovic is out to make it third time lucky in Dubai after she announced she will be back in the emirate for a tilt at the Dubai Tennis Championships. The reigning French Open champion will not have it easy at the Aviation Club next month though with a stellar field, which includes all ten of the world's top ten. The world No.5 will join Jelena Jankovic, Serena Williams, Maria Sharapova, Dinara Safina, Venus Williams and defending champion Elena Dementieva in the region's most prestigious tournament which, under the ATP and WTA restructure, is the only ATP 500 and only WTA Premier 5 sanctioned Championships in the Middle East. And with this new, enhanced status there is now a total prize money pot of $4 million on offer. Tournament managing director Colm McLoughlin is looking forward to welcoming the Serb back. "We are thrilled to see her return to Dubai and it will be interesting to see how well she does in a field that is second to none," he said. "Ana Ivanovic is not only a world-class champion, but someone who is universally liked by the players and fans alike." Meanwhile, Ivanovic got her Australian Open campaign off to a god start with a 7-5, 6-3 win over Germany's Julia Goerges. Elsewhere, world No.1 Jankovic brushed aside Yvonne Meusburger 6-1, 6-3 in impressive fashion as she looks for a maiden Grand Slam title to silence the critics who question her ranking. She said: "It's exciting to begin this tournament and to start with a win is always nice," she said. Venus and Serena Williams get their Australian Open campaigns off today.
