ROHM Semiconductor Presents Its New High Voltage Isolated SiC Gate Drivers
ROHM Semiconductor presents its new BM6 family of 2,500 Vrms isolated SiC gate drivers facilitating low-power consumption and small designs. Due to their characteristics, these devices are ideal for the control of inverters and DC/DC converters for solar and automotive applications. Due to their electrical characteristics and high output voltage, they can drive both IGBTs and SiC MOSFETs. Together with ROHM’s SiC devices the new series guarant...
ROHM Introduces Guidepost CellLocation Detection Infrastructure Energy-Harvesting DSC
ROHM, in collaboration with Ritsumeikan University and Information Services International – Dentsu, Ltd., recently announced Guidepost Cell, a unique indoor location detection infrastructure that supplies highly precise positional data to smartphones and other mobile devices to determine a user’s location inside buildings, underground malls and other interior areas using low-power 802.11-compliant wireless beacon protocol.
LAPIS Semiconductor Announces Ultra-Low Power, Ultra-Compact Sensor Hub Microcontroller for Smartphones & Accessories
LAPIS Semiconductor announces the development of the ML610Q792 Sensor Hub Microcontroller — the industry’s smallest ultra-low-power microcontroller designed for integrated, low-power control of multiple sensors in smartphones.
ROHM Semiconductor Introduces a Broad Line-up of Li-ion Battery Protection ICs
ROHM Semiconductor introduces a broad line-up of ICs providing all functions needed for controlling, monitoring and protecting systems using multiple-cell series-connected Li-ion battery packs. These rechargeable battery packs are commonly used in hybrid electric vehicles or electric vehicles (HEV/EV), Power Tools and E-Bicycles, application areas which are expected to rapidly grow over the next few years. Li-ion batteries have proven to be an ef...
Anglia appoints Divisional Marketing Manager for PEMCO products
Anglia has announced the appointment of Graham Bridger as its new Divisional Marketing Manager for its passive, electromechanical and connector (PEMCO) components. Graham has over 20 years experience in the electronic components industry, and prior to joining Anglia was European Distribution Manager for Rohm Electronics where he had worked since 1996.
ROHM Wireless LAN Modules with Integrated IEEE 802.11b/g/n Baseband Processor
ROHM Co., Ltd., has recently announced the development of the BP3580 and BP3591 2.4 GHz wireless LAN modules that integrate ROHM's proprietary BU1805GU IEEE802.11b/g/n-compliant baseband/MAC IC optimized for embedded applications.
Giants buy into Printed Electronics
More and more giant corporations are buying into printed electrics by acquiring companies partly or wholly in the field. The world's second largest chemical company Dow bought Rohm & Haas (materials), 3M bought into Printechnologics (printed patterns read by mobile phones) and DuPont bought Innovalight (nanosilicon layers to increase photovoltaic efficiency). Now there is interest in traction batteries for electric vehicles, where the third gener...
ROHM Introduces Industry's First Multi-Touch Controller for Resistive Touchscreens
Less expensive than conventional capacitive touchscreen control; internal CPU supports dual-touch gesture sensing without external resistors; built-in compensation circuits facilitate volume manufacturing
