New ROHM building in Chikugo expands production capacity
ROHM has recently held an opening ceremony announcing the completion of a new building at ROHM Apollo's Chikugo plant to enhance the production capacity of SiC power devices. The new building is an environmentally friendly factory that introduces a number of energy-saving technologies to its production facilities, with 100% of its electricity coming from renewable energy sources.
P-channel MOSFETs deliver low ON resistance
ROHM has released a 24-model lineup of -40V/-60V withstand voltage P-channel MOSFETs available in both single (RQxxxxxAT/RDxxxxxAT/RSxxxxxAT/RFxxxxxAT) and dual configurations (UTxxx5/QHxxx5/SHxxx5) – well suited for industrial and consumer applications such as factory automation, robotics, and air conditioning systems.
Power supply architectures for isolated gate drivers
Many power electronic applications such as automotive traction drives, PV inverter, railway traction drives and servo drives require a three-phase inverter power stage to convert DC to three phase AC voltage. Gate drivers are needed to drive the semiconductor devices. Vikneswaran Thayumanasamy and Kevin Lenz look at topology options
Power-saving infrared LED for VR/MR/AR applications
ROHM introduces a new ultra-compact side-emitting (side view) infrared LED, CSL1501RW. The device is well suited for head-mounted displays, industrial headsets, and VR/MR/AR (xR, virtual reality) gaming systems.
Faster 125°C operation compatible I²C bus EEPROMs
ROHM’s newly introduced 125°C operation compatible I²C bus EEPROMs, BR24H-5AC series targets applications that require data storage under harsh environments, such as factory settings for onboard cameras and sensors, airbag operating history, and data logging for always-on operating industrial automation systems and servers.
Increasing the output of spatial recognition systems
ROHM’s newly developed VCSEL technology achieves greater accuracy in spatial recognition and distance measuring systems by using Time Of Flight (TOF) systems. The VCSEL (short for vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser) module technology has become popular in recent years with the adoption of laser light sources for spatial recognition in tablets and facial recognition in smartphones.
ROHM Semiconductor at electronica virtual
ROHM Semiconductorhas announced its participation in electronica virtual, the digital trade fair and conference for the electronics industry. At the event, ROHM will showcase the latest semiconductor technologies and solutions for automotive, industrial, consumer, and other sectors in various digital formats, including online seminars, podcasts, white papers, and presentation files.
Automotive primary DC/DC converters for stable operation
ROHM has developed a new lineup of twelve automotive primary DC/DC converters. The BD9P series is optimised for ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance System) sensors, cameras, and radars, along with car infotainment and instrument clusters.
