Wireless contact lens display closer to becoming a sci-fi reality
Hands-free information could stream across your contact lens, in a device that came one step closer to reality this week. In a new paper, University of Washington researchers demonstrated the safety of a prototype device tested in the eye of a rabbit. At the moment, the contact lens device contains only a single pixel of information, but the researchers say it is a proof of the concept that the device could be worn by a person. Eventually it coul...
SemiSouth doubles current rating of new SiC diodes in DPAK package to 10A
SemiSouth Laboratories, Inc. has doubled the current rating of its DPAK-packaged silicon carbide diodes from 5A to 10A. The 1200V/10A SDB10S120 features a positive temperature coefficient for ease of paralleling, and temperature-independent switching behavior. Maximum operating temperature is 175degC.
Sofradir shows the future in infrared detection for military and space applications at SPIE DSS 2012
Sofradir announces today that it will demonstrate a prototype of the first 10-micron pixel pitch infrared (IR) detector for tactical applications at SPIE DSS in Baltimore, April 23 – 27.
SABIC Innovative Plastics’ Ammonia-Resistant Lexan DMX Resin Extends Product Life of Norka’s Energy-Efficient LED Luminaires
Norka, a leading German lighting manufacturer, chose SABIC Innovative Plastics’ extreme-performance Lexan DMX polycarbonate (PC) copolymer resin for its new line of Luzern 38 tubular luminaires with light-emitting diodes (LEDs). Lexan DMX resin can withstand the hostile, ammonia-rich environments of stables, zoo cages and other animal enclosures, enabling Norka to create a distinctive lighting product for this niche market. Unlike traditional P...
NXP HDMI Companion Chip for Mobile Devices, Providing Level Shifting for DDC, CEC and HPD
NXP announced the availability of a new HDMI companion chip for mobile devices, which provides bidirectional level shifting between the 1.8/3.3V (range between 1.62 and 3.63V) at the host side and the 5V of the HDMI connector side for the DDC (Display Data Channel), CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) and the HPD (Hot Plug Detect). All these lines, along with the HDMI 5V supply line, also offer a high level of ESD protection according to IEC61000-...
ON Semiconductor - Schottky Barrier Diodes for Portable Applications
ON Semiconductor has introduced four new 30V Schottky barrier diodes. Housed in an ultra-small 0201 Dual Silicon No-lead (DSN2) chip level package, the new Schottky barrier diodes offer portable electronics designers both the industry’s smallest Schottky diode and best-in-class space-performance.
Marvel introduces industry's first single chip dual-string dimmable LED lighting controller family
Marvell has announced the world's first dual-string smart LED controller chip, the 88EM8801, which uses the company's unique power technology to enable superior lighting performance. Using high-levels of integration and advanced mixed-signal technology, Marvell is able to pack high-end lighting features into a single chip that would otherwise require multiple driver chips, a micro-controller and many discrete components to implement. The on-chip ...
