NXP Launches Digital Wideband VGAs with High Linearity and Flexible Current Settings
NXP Semiconductors N.V. today introduced the BGA7204 and BGA7210 – two 6-bit digital variable gain amplifiers offering high linearity, low noise and low power consumption across a very wide frequency band. The BGA7210 is the only device of its kind capable of working as a VGA up to 4 GHz without external matching.
NXP Demonstrates 3-way Doherty Reference Design for More Energy Efficient RF Base Stations
Expanding its portfolio of industry-leading RF power solutions, NXP, the independent semiconductor company founded by Philips, today unveiled an efficient 3-way Doherty amplifier, enabling a new standard of energy efficient RF base stations.
Wide Bandwidth 90º Hybrid Coupler In A Small Drop-In Package
Innovative Power Products has announced the availability of its broadband, 90º hybrid coupler Model IPP-2136. This coupler offers a 10 to 1 bandwidth at 100 Watts, in a small, 3.30 x 1.00 drop-in package.
Lattice and Flexibilis announce first FPGA ethernet switch IP cores with HSR (IEC 62439-3) protocol support
Lattice Semiconductor and Flexibilis Oy today announced the immediate availability of the Flexibilis Ethernet Switch (FES) IP core. The triple speed (10Mbps/100Mbps/1Gbps) FES IP cores operate on Ethernet Layer 2 and can switch with gigabit forwarding capacity per port. Data forwarding and classification inside the switch is based on MAC address information in the packets and the prioritization scheme.
Lattice ships first samples of LatticeECP4 FPGAS
Lattice Semiconductor Corporation today announced that it has begun shipping the highest density member of its next generation LatticeECP4 FPGA family to select customers. The new LatticeECP4 FPGA family offers the richest portfolio of low cost, low power mid-range devices under 200K LUTs, with high performance innovations such as 6G SERDES in low cost packages, powerful DSP blocks and built-in hard IP-based communication blocks.
Scientists at the University of Glasgow develop the World’s smallest diamond transistor
At just 50 nanometres in length the ‘gate’ of the diamond transistor developed by Dr David Moran, of the Department of Electronics & Electrical Engineering, is more than 1000 times smaller than the thickness of a human hair, and is half the size of the previous smallest diamond transistor developed by Japanese firm NTT.
austriamicrosystems introduces the world’s first Lightning Sensor IC targeting low power, portable applications
austriamicrosystems today introduced the world’s first lightning sensor IC, the AS3935 Franklin Lightning Sensor with an embedded intelligent algorithm. Named after American innovator, Benjamin Franklin, the austriamicrosystems’ low power lightning sensor provides people with advanced warning of approaching electrical storms giving them additional time to take shelter.
NanoKTN Helps V-SMMART Nano EU Project Secure €3.1m for Product Development
The Nanotechnology Knowledge Transfer Network has helped secure €3.1 million of funding for V-SMMART Nano, an EU funded programme. The funding, which comes from the FP7-NMP call, will support development of the Volumetric Scanning Microwave Microscope (VSMM), for non-destructive 3D nanoscale structural characterisation of samples.
