EU-funded scientists have found a way to boost battery power by using scaled-down microsupercapacitors on a silicon chip.The need for extended battery power is understood by mobile phone users and is also crucial for other mobile applications such as autonomous vehicles. While batteries are bulky, high performance electrochemical storage devices can deliver an energy boost to complement batteries and extend their power.

LEDs are widely perceived as the perfect solution for lighting applications because, in theory, they last forever. What’s less frequently spoken about is the inconvenient truth: the circuit protection measures specified can make or break the design.

The 20th European Microwave Week (EuMW 2017) will provide an unrivalled opportunity for visitors to see products, components and materials - from Knowles Capacitors and their brands DLI, Novacap, Syfer, Voltronics and Johanson MFG.

Now available from Knowles brand Johanson Manufacturing is a capability guide outlining their range of Trimmer Capacitors and Microwave Tuning Elements. This new shortform guide provides an overview of the wide variety of variable capacitors available from Johanson MFG for RF and Microwave applications.Of particular interest are the Giga-Trim capacitors, miniature capacitors designed for high resolution tuning of RF power circuits.

Solid state imaging technologies have revolutionised medical imaging equipment from X-ray machines to ultrasonic scanners, writes Sally Ward-Foxton.

Power semiconductor, IXYS has announced the expansion of its portfolio with a Input Rectifier technology that combines high electrical performance and high dynamic ruggedness.
