M/A-COM Technology Solutions Inc. has extended its leadership position in high power semiconductors with the introduction of a new family of Gallium Nitride (GaN) RF Power transistors.

Opto Diode now offers semiconductor radiation sensors for detecting photons and other particles. The new product line includes the IRD AXUV 100GX Absolute X-ray Photodiode. The X-ray detector possesses known active silicon thicknesses and 100 percent internal quantum efficiency, making possible absolute measurement of X-ray flux with energies 100 keV and beyond.

Renesas Electronics today announced the availability of two IC-output optocouplers with long-creepage-distance for applications such as industrial equipment employing the maximum commercial power supply voltage of 690 V or solar power generation systems employing high voltages of up to 1,000 V.

The eTEC Series of TEMs enable high powered optoelectronics to maintain peak performance by stabilizing the temperature of the device during operation. The modules are assembled using thin film technology that enables the TEMs to have ten times the heat pumping density per unit area than conventional bulk thermoelectric technology. The ceramic substrates are gold metallized to allow the product to be embedded into densely packed optoelectronics.

Marktech has expanded its lineup of Toshiba White surface mount LEDs aimed at general and backlighting applications with the release of the Toshiba TLWxK1109 series. The new 1109 series LEDs are offered in three Lighting Industry standard color temperatures of 3000K, 5000K and 6500K. As with all Toshiba products, the highest level of manufacturing processes are used to insure a very robust LED for use in all lighting applications.

Plessey has acquired CamGaN Limited, a University of Cambridge spin-out formed to commercialisenovel technologies for the growth of gallium nitride (GaN) high-brightness LED drivers on large-area silicon substrates. The acquisition will enable Plessey to exploit synergies with its 6-inch processing facility in Plymouth, England to produce HB LEDs based on CamGaN's proprietary 6-inch GaN-on-silicon technology. The Company believes this acquisition...

Renesas Electronics Europe today announced the availability of two new high-performance optocouplers, the PS9324 and the PS9123, for industrial and motor control applications. The new high-speed optocouplers are designed for 10 megabits per second (Mbps) high-speed operation over an extended temperature range: between -40°C and 100°C for the PS9123 series and up to 110°C for the PS9324 series. The new devices comply with international safety s...

Vishay Intertechnology, Inc expanded its Little Star family of SMD power LEDs with a new series of 1 W cool, neutral, and warm white devices that utilize nitride phosphor for enhanced color stability over temperature. Combining extraordinarily high brightness with a compact package outline, the VLMW712xxx LEDs offer a low thermal resistance of 10 K/W and high luminous intensity for a wide range of applications.

Opto Diode introduces the third in a series of infrared (IR) LEDs, the OD-850L. Domestically manufactured using highly reliable, liquid-phase epitaxially-grown gallium aluminum arsenide (GaAlAs), the new high optical output IR emitters feature a medium emission angle for optimum coverage with excellent power density. Similar to the recently introduced OD850W (wide angle emission) and the OD-850N (narrow angle emission) IR LEDs from Opto Diode, th...

Renesas Electronics today introduced the new RH850 family of 32-bit microcontrollers (MCUs) for automotive applications. The RH850 is based on 40 nanometer (nm) MONOS (metal oxide nitride oxide silicon) embedded flash technology, making Renesas the first semiconductor supplier to provide this technology in the automotive sector. The RH850 family of MCUs is based on the new RH850 32-bit core, which provides the benefits of ultra low power process ...
