NXP offers a wide range of discretes for digital still cameras, which provide low power consumption, small size, and robust design.
This brochure introduces NXP's portfolio of discrete components designed for digital still cameras (DSCs). It highlights low‑power Schottky rectifiers, small‑signal MOSFETs, general‑purpose and digital transistors, load switches, and ESD protection devices that meet the size and battery‑life constraints of portable camera designs.
Key sections cover power management, power distribution, motor‑control interfaces, and protection against ESD on USB lines. Part numbers, package types and typical electrical specifications are listed for each component family, and a link to www.nxp.com is provided for further details.
| Typical controller spec | V > 30 V, I > 500 mA |
|---|---|
| Schottky diode rating | 30 V / 2 A |
| DSC battery source voltage | 3 V or 6 V |
| Average energy consumption | 2 W per flash, 500 mW per LCD view |
The camera needs multiple voltages, ranging from 1.8 V to 3.3 V for logic, and higher levels such as +5 V, +6.5 V, +13.5 V, +15 V or +7.5 V for image sensors and displays.
