Power amplifier modules target military applications
Link Microtek is offering the first of MtronPTI’s new line of solid-state RF power amplifier modules, the PA1016, which uses linear GaN technology with fast switching to deliver an output power of 35W across a wide frequency band of 2 to 6GHz. Aimed at military mobile applications such as jamming systems for countering the threat of IEDs, the amplifier module is housed in a rugged, sealed case and features built-in monitoring and control ci...
Infineon Technologies & Panasonic to develop GaN devices
Infineon Technologies and Panasonic have announced an agreement under which both companies will jointly develop Gallium nitride (GaN) devices based on Panasonic’s normally-off (enhancement mode) GaN on silicon transistor structure integrated into Infineon’s SMD packages. In this context Panasonic has provided Infineon with a license of its normally-off GaN transistor structure.
Microchip powers BMW 2 Series' infotainment system
The BMW Group is continuing to broaden the proliferation of MOST technology in its vehicle infotainment networks, using Microchip’s Intelligent Network Interface Controllers (INICs). The BMW 2 Series Active Tourer is BMW’s latest volume car model to implement MOST technology, following the company’s wide deployment among its premium models, which began in 2001.

PCIM provides platform for Rogowski technology demo
The PCIM exhibition in Nuremberg (May 19-20) provides a platform for Power Electronic Measurements to demonstrate its full range of Rogowski technology based wide-bandwidth current probes. Featuring the latest CWT MiniHF, the company will show how this AC probe provides better common mode immunity to local high voltage transients, and provides a more precise measurement delay which can be compensated for to give improved power loss measurement in...
The future of LEDs is promising
“The LED market is a complex but promising market,” said Pars Mukish, Business Unit Manager, LED, OLED and Sapphire at Yole Développement (Yole). In 2015, companies are not relying on more technical breakthroughs, except at the LED module level, where integration remains an important issue. “However, there is still overcapacity,” adds Mukish. “This is causing many changes in the supply chain, first at the chip...
