Ultra-Low IR Schottky Barrier Diodes from ROHM Prevent Thermal Runaway at High Temperatures
ROHM Semiconductor has recently announced the development of the RBxx8 series of ultra-low IR Schottky barrier diodes capable of operating at high temperatures, enabling support for automotive and power supply devices. Power consumption is reduced by approximately 40% compared to conventional automotive rectifier diodes, making them ideal for energy-saving circuits in electric vehicles (EVs) and hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs).
Ramtron Board Unanimously Concludes Cypress’ Revised Unsolicited Tender Offer is Inadequate
Ramtron International today announced that its Board of Directors has carefully reviewed the revised unsolicited tender offer from Cypress Semiconductor to acquire all outstanding stock of Ramtron at a price of $2.88 per share in cash, in consultation with its financial and legal advisors, and unanimously concluded that the revised offer is inadequate, does not reflect the intrinsic value of the Company, and is not in the best interest of Ramtron...
Five Companies to Account for 64% of $61.4B Semiconductor Capex in 2012
Despite reducing its 2012 planned capital spending by $1.0 billion on September 7, 2012, Intel and four other large semiconductor suppliers are still expected to account for almost two-thirds of industry-wide capital expenditures in 2012, according to new data released by IC Insights.
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
ROHM Semiconductor Presents Its New LEDs and LED Driver Packages for Advanced Indicator Applications
ROHM Semiconductor announced its new low current, high brightness chip LED SMLx family featuring various package sizes and colour ranges for usage in advanced automotive cluster and indicator applications. Due to the increasing number and enhanced performance of indicator applications, LEDs have to meet high expectations in terms of efficiency, luminous excellence, low power and reliability.
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...
