For the first time,ROHM will be exhibiting at CeBIT 2017, an international information communication technology trade show held every year in Hanover, Germany, from 20th-24thMarch. CeBIT is the world’s largest B2B solutions trade show focused on the latest technologies such as IoT, Big Data, AI and robotics. This year Japan was selected as a partner country for the first time.

Wolfspeed has expanded its innovative C3M platform through the introduction of a 1200V, 75mΩ MOSFET in its recently released low-inductance discrete packaging. The new device simplifies designs and enables an increase in frequency while maintaining efficiency, lowering system cost, reducing circuit EMI, and enabling 99% efficiency levels in three-phase power factor correction circuits.

There's a reason why farmers wear protective gear when applying organophosphate pesticides. The substances are very effective at getting rid of unwanted bugs, but they can also make people sick. Related compounds—organophosphate nerve agents—can be used as deadly weapons. Now researchers have developed a fast way to detect the presence of such compounds in the field using a disposable "lab-on-a-glove." The report on the glove appears ...

Initially when wearable technology first was introduced, you would see it mainly in fitness bands and smartwatches, however as technology develops in this fast pace world we are starting to see wearable tech expand beyond this.With the popularity of the Internet of Things, smart homes and connected devices, developers are beginning to create wearable tech in ways you never could have imagined before.

Wolfspeed has added four new SiC Schottky diodes to its portfolio, further extending what was already recognised as the industry’s most comprehensive offering. Developed in response to both individual customer requests and the power supply industry’s continuous demand for components with larger nominal current ratings, the new 650V and 1200V Cree Z-Rec SiC Schottky diodes enable high efficiency power conversion systems with improved r...

The TR10 Lock has been introduced by SICK, for highly-reliable mechanical locking of moveable safety protection on machinery, such as guards, hoods, flaps, doors and screens.The SICK TR10 Lock is a safety locking device providing PLe (EN ISO 13849) SIL3 (IEC 61508) protection for personnel and processes through physical locking of moveable safety equipment such as guards and screens to prevent access to, or interference with, machinery in a hazar...

A new evaluation board from Wolfspeed, a Cree Company is available at Richardson RFPD. The CRD-060DD17P-2 is a demonstration board for a single-end flyback converter design built with Wolfspeed’s commercially-available 1700V SiC MOSFET. The 48W experimental reference design demonstrates how the 1700V SiC MOSFET can reduce total cost and simplify the design of auxiliary power supply.

Research from North Carolina State University offers insights into how far and how fast cyborg cockroaches - or biobots - move when exploring new spaces. The work moves researchers closer to their goal of using biobots to explore collapsed buildings and other spaces in order to identify survivors.NC State researchers have developed cockroach biobots that can be remotely controlled and carry technology that may be used to map disaster areas and id...

A 900V, 10mΩ MOSFET rated for 196A of continuous drain current at a case temperature of 25°C has been introduced byWolfspeed. This device enables the reduction of EV drive-train inverter losses by 78% based on EPA combined city/highway mileage standards. This efficiency improvement offers designers new options in terms of range, battery usage and vehicle design.

Finding the potential for sensor intelligence to power forward the fourth industrial revolution in sectors such as factory, logistics and process automation, is the theme appearing on SICK UK’s stand at the Industry 4.0 Summit in Manchester on 4th-5th April. Automation experts on SICK’s stand no: R20 will demonstrate typical applications that use Smart Sensors as the essential building blocks to deliver the data needed for a fully-con...
