Photodigm shifts to extended mode-hop-free performance
DBR lasers from LASER COMPONENTS operate on the single longitudinal mode with the highest gain selected by the Bragg grating. A conventional DBR laser will normally exhibit a continuous, deterministic tuning range of up to 0.2nm before hopping to another mode. While this is sufficient for many applications, others require a wider continuous tuning range.
Do power systems make the grade for autonomous vehicles?
Voltage and current levels will change, but the requirements for low EMI/EMC emissions will not, argues Tony Armstrong, Analog Devices.

Sensor solutions to meet the challenges of the future at CES
At theConsumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas in January 2019, amswill showcase several different technologies for the mobile devices, computing, consumer electronics and automotive sectors.
AI for better identification of road traffic disturbances
Artificial intelligence can be applied to enable the better detection of road traffic disturbances in real-time without significantly adding costs, a test by the Finnish Transport Agency and Tieto has shown. The findings were the result of a Proof of Concept experiment conducted by the two organisations in spring 2018 that combined LiDAR measurement technology with sensor fusion and AI techniques to analyse traffic flows.
Would Apple change the power GaN world?
Over a long period, industrial companies followed up at a distance the development of GaN-based solutions mainly managed by R&D institutes and laboratories. Today the context has changed.
Strengthening autonomous trust on the road
According to recent data from AAA, 73% of American drivers are too afraid to ride in fully self-driving vehicles and 63% of US adults feel less safe sharing the road with self-driving vehicles while walking or cycling. By Lakshmi Mandyam, VP automotive, Arm
FPD-Link III serialiser with CSI-2 interface
The DS90UB935-Q1 serialiser is part of TI’s FPD-Link III device family designed to support high-speed raw data sensors including cameras, satellite RADAR, LIDAR, and Time-of-Flight (ToF) sensors. The chip delivers a high-speed forward channel and an ultra-low latency, bidirectional control channel and supports power over a single coax (PoC) or STP cable.
GaN modules target high-performance applications
A full line of gallium arsenide (GaN) modules from Texas Instruments (TI) is in stock at Mouser Electronics. The GaN controllers, regulators, and drivers deliver reduced power with end-to-end power conversion and 5MHz switching frequencies for high-performance applications such as electric motor design, augmented reality, LiDAR, and high-density industrial and commercial power supplies.
Sensor supplier signs global deal with Mouser
Mouser Electronics and Terabee, designers of small, high-performance distance sensors for drone, robotics and IoT applications have agreed a global distribution pact. Mouser is now shipping a variety of Terabee’s TeraRanger sensors. The TeraRanger Evo distance sensors measure a single axis and return distance values in millimeters at high speed.
