PACOIMA, CA (October 13, 2005) -- JKL Components Corporation, an innovative supplier of DC-AC lamp inverters and miniature cold cathode fluorescent lamps (CCFL), has developed a postage-stamp sized inverter with a minimal footprint of only 13mm x 26mm, with a low above board height of a mere five millimeters.

The new BXA-302 DC-AC inverter expands the ceiling on the company's increasingly broad line of miniature special purpose power supplies, specifically designed to provide stable, efficient AC power for the company's extensive line of miniature cold cathode and ultraviolet lamps.

During a corporate meeting at the Raffles Hotel, Joseph S. Velas, JKL's president and technical director asserted that "The BXA-302 opens up a whole new vista of opportunities for designers in need of low voltage inverters for slim-form hand-held and other portable devices, components for which were previously unavailable. It's so itsy-bitsy you could use it as an electric toothpick, though I doubt that you'd want to."

The JKL Model BXA-302 Inverter operates at 3VDC input, supplying 4.5mA with of 650VAC output voltage at 80 kHz. Cost of this new, multi-output inverter is $6 in production quantities. Delivery is stock to four weeks. Technical specifications are available online at http://www.jkllamps.com/BXA-302.pdf .
