Photonic Products, the UK optoelectronics device manufacturer and laser diode specialist, has announced the introduction of two new, high power, infrared wavelength GaAlaS laser diodes from Opnext, Inc. The HL8337MG and the HL8338MG are ideal as light sources for industrial and medical sensor applications and as a light source for various other types of optical equipment such as distance meters, barcode scanners and high resolution CTP.

Photonic Products has introduced to the UK what it says is the World’s first 642nm, 150mW, single longitudinal mode semiconductor laser diode with TE mode oscillation.

StockerYale, Inc. (NASDAQ: STKR), an independent provider of photonic-based products, has announced that it has acquired privately held Photonic Products Ltd. of the United Kingdom, a well-known provider of laser diode modules and laser diodes for industrial, medical and scientific markets. This strategic acquisition will significantly broaden StockerYale's product portfolio of laser modules, increase StockerYale's 2006 revenues by approximately ...

STMicroelectronics has announced a complete three-phase motor-control development kit based on the STM32 Flash microcontroller – launched mid-2007 – which provides all the necessary hardware and firmware to enable users to evaluate this 32-bit solution, and to begin development of their own sensorless motor-control application. The STM32 uses the powerful ARM Cortex-M3 core, developed specifically to address the requirements of cost-sensitiv...

Ordinary silicon diodes used in switched-mode power supplies lose up to 1% efficiency by not turning off immediately, but STMicroelectronics claims to be among the first companies to introduce silicon carbide (SiC) diodes that save this energy normally lost during switching.

Following news from CERN on July 4 announcing success in the long search for the Higgs boson, STMicroelectronics congratulates the multinational team responsible for the discovery. ST has supplied electronic components developed specifically to meet the needs of both instruments used in CERN’s LHC to search for the Higgs boson: the Compact Muon Solenoid and the ATLAS detector.

Texas Instruments Incorporated is expanding its MOSFET driver portfolio with three next-generation two-output gate drivers that improve efficiency and reliability in high-density isolated power supplies. High-performance MOSFET drivers deliver efficiency and reliability, protecting a power system from 100-V surges

Texas Instruments has introduced a high-brightness LED driver with an integrated 40V, 1.2A switch that can drive up to three 1W LEDs in series. The new TPS61165 device's high-performance features and input voltage range of 3 to 18V allow designers to efficiently manage multiple high-power LEDs used in single-cell, battery-powered applications or point-of-load designs with a 9 or 12V bus.
