DTMOS IV power MOSFETs integrate high speed diodes
Expanding its range of 600V DTMOS IV MOSFETs, Toshiba Electronics Europe has introduced versions featuring integrated High Speed Diodes (HSDs) for use in high efficiency power supplies and either full or half bridge motor control applications. The reverse recovery time of the HSDs suffers only from minimised thermal influence, ensuring fast switching across a wide range of temperatures.
Image recognition processor enhances automotive safety
DENSO is utilising Toshiba’s TMPV7506XBG image recognition processor in its latest front-camera-based active safety system, which will be equipped in vehicles to reach the market in late 2015. The image recognition processor IC supports multiple camera-based ADAS functions, including lane detection, vehicle detection, pedestrian detection and traffic sign recognition. It concurrently executes multiple applications with low power consumption...
Functional safety tools for ARM integrate powerful code analysis
IAR Systems has released an updated version of the functional safety edition of theIAR Embedded Workbench, a complete embedded development toolchain for ARM. The build chain of IAR Embedded Workbench for ARM is certified by TÜV SÜD as a qualified tool for the development of safety-related applications.
NIR 2.1MP CMOS image sensor enables iris recognition
Designed to improve security on mobile devices, Toshiba Electronics Europe has launched its first CMOS image sensor to enable iris recognition, the 2.1MP T4KE1. The device captures images for recognition with higher sensitivity than conventional CMOS image sensors by omitting the usual colour filter in the pixel structure, which increases sensitivity in the NIR (Near-InfraRed) spectrum.
2MP automotive CMOS image sensor mitigates LED flicker
Featuring the industry’s first LED flicker mitigation function, Toshiba Electronics Europe has announced a 2MP CMOS image sensor for automotive cameras. The CSA02M00PB sensor is equipped with Toshiba’s original LED flicker (pulsed LED) mitigation circuit to minimise image flicker caused by LED light sources.
eHDDs & eSSDs earn VMWare 6.0 certification
Toshiba Electronics Europe announces that its 12Gb/sSAS 15,000 RPM enterprise HDDs - the AL13SX Series - and eSSDs - PX03SN Series - have earned VMware Virtual SAN 6.0 and 5.5 certification for VMware vSphere environments. Virtual SAN for VMware vSphere6.0 is a hypervisor-converged storage platform that was released in March to deliver the benefits of software-defined storage to the data centre.
Compact transistors support high definition audio
Toshiba Electronics Europe has launched a smaller bipolar transistor for use in the output Tr stage of high definition audio systems. The 2SA1943N and 2SC5200N provide the same high quality sound output as the now-famous 2SA1943 and 2SC5200 but in a TO-3P(N) package and just three quarters of the width and length to reduce space consumption compared to the previous TO-3P(L) package.
Why automation is good news for humans & industry
Back in April 2015, Japan's oldest department store chain Mitsukoshi implemented a robot receptionist into its foyer with the purpose of greeting shoppers. The Android, with lifelike skin and almost natural looking movements, was created by Toshiba. The multi-national conglomerate is now aiming to take it up a notch by developing a robot that can gradually more of what a human does. After being unveiled at a Japanese tech fair last year, the robo...
Voltage regulator features power-on-reset & window watchdog
Toshiba has announced two 5V constant voltage regulators for use in the automotive industry. The TB9005FNG and TB9021FNG incorporate system reset functions for microcontrollers that contribute to improved safety in automotive systems.The ICs incorporate system reset functions including a window watchdog feature to aid the resetting of MCUs when an abnormal state is detected or a processor gets stuck in a loop.
productronica - 40 years old and still very relevant
No other industry has undergone the scope and scale of progress and change that the electronics industry has achieved since the 1960s. Imagine life without the internet, mobile communications, PCs, tablets and printers, let alone cars without electronic safety and entertainment systems or hospitals without sophisticated diagnostic equipment.
