Reference design supports tactical radio application
A new reference design from Wolfspeed is now being supported by distributor Richardson RFPD.
ICs incorporating robust 750V GaN transistors
Power Integrations has announced an expansion of its InnoSwitch3 families of offline CV/CC flyback switcher ICs. The new INN3x78C devices incorporate a smaller ‘size 8’ 750 V PowiGaN transistor, enabling compact, efficient power supplies delivering between 27 and 55W without heatsinks.
Future-proofing EV battery management systems
Despite the current boom in electric vehicle (EV) and plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) production, actual interest among consumers may be in danger of lagging behind. Rudye McGlothlin, Marketing Director, Power Products, Silicon Labs explains.
Power stage IC family is based on eGaN FET technology
The EPC2152 is a monolithic 80V, 12.5A power stage IC for 48V DC/DC conversion in high-density computing, motor drives for e-mobility and Class D audio applications.
LED drivers for advanced vehicle lighting applications
ON Semiconductor has launched a new family of four devices that facilitate the high levels of performance and innovative functionality that vehicle manufacturers and consumers now expect from automotive exterior and interior lighting. Aimed specifically at low power solid state lighting, the new family comprises two LED drivers (NCV7683 and NCV7685) and two current controllers (NCV7691 and NCV7692).
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.
Selectronic launches custom-specific display service
Selectronic has launched OnDisplay to supply customer specific embedded display solutions. The brand name OnDisplay has been added to the Selectronic family to sit alongside its established OnLED custom-made LED printed circuit board assemblies (PCBAs) and LED strips.
Scalable devices on Si targeting beyond 5G RF front-end modules
Imec has presented a functional GaAs-based heterojunction bipolar transistor (HBT) devices on 300mm Si, and CMOS-compatible GaN-based devices on 200mm Si for mm-wave applications. The results demonstrate the potential of both III-V-on-Si and GaN-on-Si as CMOS-compatible technologies for enabling RF front-end modules for beyond 5G applications. They were presented at last year’s IEDM conference.
