Infineon CoolSiCTM MOSFET for 650V at Rutronik
Infineon's CoolSiC MOSFETs use an optimised trench semiconductor process that enables both the lowest losses in the application and the highest reliability in operation.
5G analysis: slow and steady doesn’t always win the race
In 2021, Ericsson CEO Börje Ekholm claimed that “Europe is too slow with the rollout of 5G”. He also suggested that this could impede the success of Europe’s climate goals. While this could be true, the state of Europe’s 5G rollout could have several other knock-on effects. Here, Hamish White, CEO of telecom solution provider Mobilise, explores the reasons why Europe’s 5G rollout is lagging, and why catching up ...
