Diodes Incorporated has launched the PI3WVR41310, a 13.5Gbps high-speed video switch designed to improve resolution and refresh rates in modern commercial displays, gaming monitors, docking stations, and more. The device supports DisplayPort 2.1, HDMI 2.1, and other emerging standards, operating as a multiplexer or demultiplexer with minimal insertion loss and high bandwidth. It allows a wide signal-voltage range for multi-standard, DC-coupled operations, saving PCB space and enhancing signal integrity. Available in a compact 52-pin package, the PI3WVR41310 is priced at $1.65 for orders of 3,500 pieces.

Diodes has expanded its DML30xx series smart load switches, introducing four new products: DML3008LFDS, DML3010ALFDS, DML3011ALFDS, and DML3012LDC. These switches provide high-current power domain switching control for voltages from 0.5V to 20V and are designed for a wide range of applications, including servers, computing hardware, and industrial equipment.

The devices feature a chip-on-chip arrangement with a low RDS(ON) N-channel power MOSFET, ultra-compact footprint, and large heat pads for thermal efficiency. They minimize power consumption and require fewer components, reducing PCB area and accelerating time to market. The load switches offer various safeguards, such as short-circuit protection, undervoltage lockout, and thermal shutdown.

Pricing for the DML3008LFDS, DML3010ALFDS, and DML3011ALFDS is $0.75 each for 3,000 units; the DML3012LDC is priced at $1.07 each for 3,000 units.
