CEVA and DARPA partner for technology innovation
CEVA has announced an open licensing agreement with the US Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) to accelerate technology innovation for DARPA programs. The partnership, as part of the DARPA Toolbox initiative, establishes an access framework under which DARPA organisations can access all of CEVA’s commercially available IPs, tools and support to expedite their programs.
IC integrates power, voltage, and current monitoring
Allegro MicroSystems has announced the launch of the ACS37800, a Hall-effect power monitoring IC for single-phase AC and DC solutions in a small PCB footprint. Allegro’s ACS37800 also has an integrated power monitoring chip that allows simultaneous measurement of power, voltage, and current for AC and DC signals with an isolation rating of up to 1480 Vpk in a small SOIC16W package, reducing the solution BOM size, cost, and complexity.
Promoting workplace equality in materials science
To help ensure equal and inclusive work conditions in STEM,European research initiative, theGraphene Flagship, is holding acareer eventas part of itsDiversity in Grapheneprogramme.TheDiversity in Graphene Career Event2021is a digital event, taking place over two days, 8th to 9th March 2021. The first day will include sessions on topics from equal opportunities in STEM, to the experiences of diverse Graphene Flagship speakers working in industry a...
Breakthrough for the 2D materials sector
Graphene Flagship researchers have reported a new method to integrate graphene and 2D materials into semiconductor manufacturing lines, a milestone for the initiatives recently launched2D Experimental Pilot Line (2D-EPL)- a €20m project to bridge the gap between lab-scale manufacturing and large volume production of electronic devices based on two-dimensional materials.
Ophir Ariel ultra-compact laser power meter released
MKS Instruments has announced the Ophir Ariel, a self-contained, ultra-compact laser power meter for measuring high power industrial lasers up to 8KW. Designed for OEM and end-user applications in closed and confined spaces, such as additive manufacturing, metal cutting, and welding, the Ariel power meter is a robust, battery-powered device that requires no water or fan cooling and is small enough to fit in the palm of your hand.
Invest in photonics now to fight future pandemics
Strong investment in photonics will help us fight infectious diseases that kill an unimaginable number of people and prepare us against future pandemics, says Dr Jürgen Popp of the Leibniz Center for Photonics in Infection Research (LPI) that is currently under construction in Jena.
Quantum sensors project for end-of-line battery testing
CPI has announced its participation in a collaborative project – termed the Quantum Sensors project – to develop sensors for quality assessment and battery grading in the manufacturing line. This project will advance electric vehicle battery manufacturing in the UK and overcome cost barriers to enable the widespread adoption of electric vehicles.
Laser system to create grease-repellent metal surfaces
The end of scrubbing ovens and home appliances with chemicals or heat could soon be in sight, thanks to a new high power laser system being developed to put ‘self-cleaning’, grease-repellent and antibacterial properties into sheet metal. Teaming up with appliance giant Bosch, the European photonics consortium behind the system could soon see their technology create fluid-repellent surfaces fitted inside the next generation of dishwash...
Scientists develop safer X-rays for children
European photonics scientists have developed a new ‘autocorrect’ image processing algorithm to reduce X-ray scatter, meaning children can receive safer, high contrast, low dose X-rays.Clinicians will be able to take a low radiation, digital X-ray image - without the need for an anti-scatter grid - thanks to new innovative ‘scattering suppression software’.
CPI renews ISO certification for medical devices
CPI has today announced the successful re-audit and renewal of its ISO certification13485:2016 – the international standard for medical device Quality Management Systems (QMS). Compliance with ISO 13485 is a key part of meeting global regulatory requirements and allows CPI to continue offering an accelerated route to market for developers of medical devices.
