Power electronics based on GaN and SiC have the potential to significantly improve efficiency. But since these materials are higher-cost, companies need market-specific strategies in order to succeed, as these Wide-BandGap (WBG) materials claim market share from silicon-based semiconductors, according toLux Research.

To bring together the businesses of today and the engineers of tomorrow, CWIEME is launching the CWIEME Challenge at its 2015 Berlin show. This is a competition to find the most innovative electrical design and engineering projects from students at academic institutions around the world and introduce them to the industry’s leading manufacturers.

This year’s CWIEME Berlin will take place across six halls at the Messe Berlin, Germany from 5th to 7th May 2015. After 19 years of continuous growth, the show is anticipating record attendance from engineers, designers, buyers and academics in the global automotive, energy, consumer electronics, industrial machinery, military and aerospace sectors with advance registration figures already going strong.

UK Students for the Exploration and Development of Space (UKSEDS) is pleased to announce that Printech Circuit Laboratories will be gold sponsors of the National Student Space Conference 2015. Silver sponsors include Satellite Applications Catapult, HE Space and CGI.

Bentek has begun shipment of the Bentek Commercial PV PowerRack-AL for three-phase inverters. The universal PowerRack-AL provides a common design that fits ABB, Advanced Energy, Chint, Schneider, SMA, Solar Edge, SolarMax and Solectria three-phase inverters.

The €8.4mTrans-European Transport Networks (TEN-T) co-funded European Long-distance Electric Clean Transport Road Infrastructure Corridor (ELECTRIC)has been launched.ELECTRIC, which is co-funded by the EU, supports the installation of a corridor of high-quality fast chargers along key European motorways until the end of 2015.

Boulting Technology has launched a new range of low voltage (LV) switchboards. The new Boulting Power Centre (BPC) series offers users BS EN 61439 compliance - a mandatory requirement from 1 November 2014.

Two new models have been added to ABB’s CoriolisMaster flowmeter family. Both feature RS485 Modbus communications and are aimed at OEM machine builders. The FCB and hygienic FCH 130 and 150 series coriolis mass flow meters are ideal for filling applications across a range of industries. With their integral mount design and zero upstream or downstream piping requirements, the meters are ideal for use in confined locations, requiring just a f...

From humanoid entertainment devices to robotic cleaning machines, robots promise to revolutionise the way consumers interact with the world and monitor their health and environment. The Consumer Electronics Association announced that robotics exhibits at the 2015 International CES,6th to 9th January, 2015, in Las Vegas, have grown 25% from the previous year.

STMicroelectronics andComau are working together to develop next-gen robots, enabled by ST's control, smart power and sensing products,that maximise energy efficiency and improve factory safety.Cooperating since 2006, the companies' latest efforts focus on research for actuation and sensing to improve both the robot's spatial awareness and its interaction with operators. The ultimate goal of the partnership is to develop a new approach for roboti...
