Yahoo Finance Vishay (VSH) Boosts Optoelectronics Offerings With New Modules
Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. VSH unveiled two new fixed-gain infrared (IR) sensor modules, namely TSSP93038DF1PZA and TSSP93038SS1ZA.
The new sensor modules operate seamlessly in bright sunlight without additional components like dark panels, apertures and sunshades. Thus, the new devices help in reducing system costs.
Further, they feature a low supply current of 0.35 mA and offer irradiance of 1.3 mW/m² in compact minimold packages. These modules operate over a supply voltage range from 2.0 V to 3.6 V.
Notably, both modules are capable of sensing the distance to objects for toys, drones, robots, and vicinity switches. They are also well-equipped to detect the presence of traffic control lights and parking lot, gateway access and water level sensors.
Additionally, these devices can be used for sensing light barriers for sports racing and lawnmower robots. Also, they can be used as reflective sensors for hand dryers, towel or soap dispensers, water faucets, toilets, vending machine fall detection, and security and pet gates.
The useful nature and cost-effectiveness of TSSP93038DF1PZA and TSSP93038SS1ZA are expected to aid Vishay in gaining momentum across outdoor sensor applications.

Apart from the launch of TSSP93038DF1PZA and TSSP93038SS1ZA, Vishay recently rolled out four new series of 200 V FRED Pt ultrafast rectifiers in the low profile DFN3820A package, with the help of which it remains well-poised to gain solid momentum across commercial, industrial and automotive applications.
Furthermore, the company introduced a new automotive Grade photovoltaic MOSFET driver called VOMDA1271. It provides high performance, fast switching times and a high open circuit output voltage, making it ideal for automotive applications.
Vishay also introduced MCB ISOA, a thick film power resistor. The device offers high power dissipation and optional temperature monitoring, making itself ideal for automotive, industrial, and avionics, military and space applications.
Additionally, the company introduced 17 new Gen 3 650V silicon carbide Schottky diodes with improved efficiency and reliability.
We think that all these efforts will likely drive the company's top line in the days ahead.
