RF Micro Devices today unveiled the highly integrated RF6555 ZigBee front end module (FEM). The RF6555 is RFMD’s newest ZigBee FEM and is optimized for smart energy/advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) applications providing utilities and consumers more control over how they monitor and save energy. ZigBee is a global low power wireless networking standard for monitoring and control across a variety of applications, including energy managemen...

RF Micro Devices announced today it is teaming with Ember Corporation to introduce ZigBee front end modules (FEMs) for smart grid applications that give utilities and consumers more control over how they monitor and save energy. ZigBee is a global wireless networking standard for monitoring and control in a variety of applications such as energy management, safety and security, lighting and appliances.

W. L. Gore & Associates is offering a new family of highly efficient cartridge filters that improve water quality and reduce total cost of filtration for ultrapure water (UPW) and de-ionized (DI) water used in the manufacture of semiconductors and silicon wafers.

Royal Philips Electronics subsidiary Assembléon’s recently released Twin Placement Robot (TPR) is reducing the cost of placement for memory module assembly, and will soon be doing the same for semiconductor backend manufacturing. The TPR fits on Assembléon’s A-Series pick & place equipment to give a single platform that can place up to 110,000 ICs and chip components per hour – eliminating the need for a separate line balancing machine. T...

At the International Electron Devices Meeting in San Francisco imec’s advanced CMOS research program reports promising advances in scaling logic, DRAM and non-volatile memory. A new device based on non-silicon channels was realized to scale high-performance logic towards the sub-20nm node. Moreover, imec developed low-leakage capacitors allowing DRAM to be pushed to the 2x nm node. And the switching mechanism of resistive RAM for next-generatio...

Today, imec and Panasonic Inc. have entered into the next phase of a comprehensive and broadened collaboration agreement for joint R&D on healthcare, wireless communication, flexible electronics and advanced CMOS process technologies. The signing ceremony at the Panasonic Headquarters in Osaka (Japan) today was endorsed by the presence of His Royal Highness Prince Philippe of Belgium.
