Native Red InGaN LEDs on silicon microLED displays
Plessey, an embedded technologies developer at the forefront of microLED technology for the Augmented Reality (AR) and display markets, has successfully developed a world’s first GaN on Silicon-based Red LED.Whilst InGaN-based Blue and Green LEDs are commercially available, Red LEDs are typically based on AlInGaP material or colour converted Red.
Demonstration board uses eGaN FETS to develop ToF in automotive applications
Time of flight (ToF) relies on fast and accurate object detection. In automotive design, it is used in lidar systems for safety systems in advanced driver assisted systems (ADAS).
Unlocking traceability and efficiency within the supply chain
With increasing regulation across all industries, from data privacy legislation to technical specifications and product certification requirements, consistent traceability within often large and complex supply chains has never been more important for businesses to achieve. This is not only for compliance reasons, but also to ensure accurate forecasting so companies can deliver on promises made to customers.
Evaluation board for single-chip mmWave sensing solution
The AWR1642 BoosterPack from Texas Instruments is an easy-to-use evaluation board for the AWR1642 mmWave sensing device, with direct connectivity to the microcontroller (MCU) LaunchPad Development Kit. The BoosterPack contains everything required to start developing software for on-chip C67x DSP core and low-power ARM R4F controllers.
Conquering new frontiers with world’s smallest safety laser scanner
SICK has launched the world’s smallest safety laser scanner, the nanoScan3, designed for easy and economical integration into the smallest of machine designs, particularly for automated guided vehicles, carts, mobile platforms and service robots. The ultra-compact SICK nanoScan3 is just eight centimetres tall, so it can fit snugly into the spaces in machines where safety laser scanners could not previously have been located.
Simple, robust solutions for automotive LED lamps
Diodes Incorporated has announced the AL8843Q and AL8862Q automotive-compliant DC/DC buck converters, designed for driving single LEDs and multiple LED strings in and around vehicles. Applications include daytime running lights (DRL), which many manufacturers now offer as standard, as well as fog lights, turn lights, and brake/stop lights.
Electrolube launch new UV coatings, resins and gap fillers
Electrolube is set to launch an innovative range of UV Conformal Coatings, Thermal Management solutions and Encapsulation Resins at this year’s IPC APEX EXPO, at the San Diego Convention Centre, CA, from 4-6th February.The company’s commitment to the evolving needs of its customers saw the launch of these new products reach an unprecedented level of success at Productronica recently, where Electrolube’s newly redesigned stand hi...
Beam angle LEDs focus light precisely
OMC has introduced two new surface-mount LEDs, an ultra-narrow 15° beam LED and a 60° beam LED. Both new LEDs are produced by OMC in a range of package styles, beam angles and all popular LED wavelengths, plus infra-red versions. The two new devices join the SMD emitter series launched by OMC in late 2018, which includes a 30° output beam device that has proved very popular.
Automotive lighting systems gearing towards vehicular safety
Early automotive lighting solutions and vehicular systems were much simpler than the ones available at present. Cars had fewer switches, directional lights switched on focused on the desired spot and should the bulbs fail, horns from passing vehicles would alert the drivers that they were about to be blindsided. However, earlier car lighting systems were significantly less reliable than the new automotive lighting solutions of the present, which ...
Healthcare equipment makes up quarter of optical encoder demand
According to new research, rapid upsurge in adoption of absolute optical encoders in robotics is driving the growth of optical encoder market. Between 2019 and 2029, the global sales of optical encoders are projected for a robust hike at around nine percent CAGR, indicates a new research study.
