Series intended to accelerate the deployment of high-speed cable TV
Qorvo has announced a series of innovations intended to accelerate the deployment of high-speed CAble TV (CATV) DOCSIS 3.1 networks while providing cable designers greater flexibility in product design. Qorvo's latest Multi-Chip Module(MCM) packaging, thermal sensing pins and advanced GaN on SiC integration capabilities enable CATV product designers to lower costs, increase bandwidth and reduce board space.
EuMW 2015: GaN power amplifier replaces TWTs
A 1kW X-band GaN pulsed power amplifier, the DM-X1K0-01, developed by Diamond Microwave Dvices was introduced at European Microwave Week in Paris. The devices is designed as an alternative to vacuum tube amplifiers. Special emphasis has been given to the size and weight of the amplifier which make it suitable for radar applications including airborne radar where these considerations come into play.
Plessey to exhibit at Europe's largest lighting event
Plessey has announced that it will be exhibiting at LuxLive, Europe's biggest annual lighting event, 18th to 19th November at London's ExCeL arena. This will be the second year exhibiting for the UK-based LED manufacturer, where it will demonstrate a number of lighting solutions designed around its award winning GaN-on-Silicon technology for the solid state lighting market.
EuMW 2015: GaN RF transistors enable smaller radar units
Three new GaN RF transistors in low-cost plastic packages designed to enable smaller size and greater reliability in civilian marine, airborne and infrastructure radar systems were unveiled by Qorvo at European Microwave Week in Paris. The TGF2977-SM, TGF2978-SM, and TGF2979-SM are unmatched GaN transistors designed to operate in the 8-12GHz frequency band.
GaN coaxial power amplifiers dissipate heat more effectively
Pasternack announces their expanded offering of GaN coaxial power amplifiers. GaN has emerged as the technology of choice in power amplifier designs. The high power density of GaN semiconductor technology dissipates heat more effectively, which results in amplifier designs that have significantly higher output power levels over broadband and narrowband frequencies.
Yokogawa wins terminal automation systems order from Bharat Petroleum
Yokogawa Electric Corporation has announced that its subsidiary, Yokogawa India, has won a turnkey project order valued at ₹730m ($11m) to automate truck loading terminals for the Bharat Petroleum (BPCL). Under the terms of the contract, Yokogawa India will deliver Terminal Logistics Suite VP terminal automation systems and ProSafe-RS safety instrumented systems to 11 BPCL truck loading terminals in northern and eastern India.
Partnership aims for secure, intelligent vehicle networking
NXP Semiconductors and Siemens have announced a partnership for secure, intelligent vehicle networking. Siemens will use technology from NXP Semiconductors and Cohda Wireless for secure communication of vehicles with surrounding traffic infrastructure. Siemens will deploy NXP technology for various ITS field tests and pilot projects, including the A58 motorway in the Netherlands, A9 motorway in Germany and the Living Lab in Austria.
Project for intelligent road signs & traffic lights
Siemens AG and Cohda Wireless have announced they will collaborate in the area of Vehicle to Infrastructure (V2I). V2I devices are part of Cooperative Intelligent Transport Systems (C-ITS), which share information between vehicles and roadside infrastructure such as traffic lights. This increases the quality and reliability of information available to drivers about their immediate environment, other vehicles and road users.
Plessey to exhibit at LuxLive 2015
Plessey has announced that it will be exhibiting at the LuxLive event from 18th to 19th November at London's ExCeL arena. LuxLive is Europe's biggest annual lighting event. Plessey will be showcasing its latest GaN on silicon LED solutions. This year, LuxLive will be co-located with Strategies in Light and the combined event will feature the best from the entire industry supply chain, ranging from chip manufacturing, through to design and end use...
GaN nanoelectronics-transistor blocking voltage exceeds 1kV
Low resistance resulting in reduced power consumption and heating have attracted researchers to study GaN systems for nanoelectronics. Previous work has focused on laterally oriented GaN and AlGaN transistors, which readily provide a high mobility and low resistance. However, these structures are limited in terms of the break-down and threshold voltage that can be achieved without compromising device size, which may make them unsuitable for autom...
