Bringing quantum computing closer to reality
For 60 years computers have become smaller, faster and cheaper. But engineers are approaching the limits of how small they can make silicon transistors and how quickly they can push electricity through devices to create digital ones and zeros.That limitation is why Stanford electrical engineering Professor Jelena Vuckovic is looking to quantum computing, which is based on light rather than electricity.

GaN transistors demo power efficiency at APEC 2107
Gallium nitride (GaN) chips showcased their power (and how they boost power density and energy efficiency) at the Applied Power Electronics Conference (APEC) which was held on 26th to 30th March 2017 in Tampa, Florida.
A coat(ing) for all seasons
In recent years, modern coatings technology has been advancing rapidly; used to prevent oxidation, corrosion and improve wear resistance as well as provide protection from high temperatures, manufacturers are keen to exploit new coatings to improve the durability of their products. However, not all coatings are the same and the quality of the final product relies on high quality equipment and expert application techniques.
First GaN-on-Silicon Devices on 200-mm Wafers
X-FAB Silicon FoundriesandExagan, a start-up innovator of gallium-nitride (GaN) semiconductor technology enabling smaller and more efficient electrical converters, have demonstrated mass-production capability to manufacture highly efficient high-voltage power devices on 200-mm GaN-on-silicon wafers using X-FAB’s standard CMOS production facility in Dresden, Germany.
Low noise amplifiers provide 13.5dB of gain
The HMC8400 low noise amplifiers from Analog Devices are now being shipped by Mouser Electronics. Members of Analog Devices’ extensive series of single-ended, fixed-gain radio frequency (RF) ICs, the HMC8400 devices are wideband distributed low noise amplifiers (LNAs) that operate between 2GHz and 30GHz.
Collaboration enables lower power consumption for IoT applications
Shanghai Huali Microelectronics Corporation (HLMC) and Cypress Semiconductor have announced a new milestone for the combination of HLMC’s 55nm Low Power (LP) process technology and Cypress' SONOS (Silicon Oxide Nitride Oxide Silicon) embedded Flash memory Intellectual Property (IP). HLMC’s customers have started early production of low-power embedded Flash aimed at Bluetooth Low Energy and Internet of Things applications using the tec...
Innovating efficient delivery of electrical power to modern systems
The power supply used to be an afterthought in electronic systems design. No longer. Today’s systems are complex; they cram more functions into ever-smaller volumes, are increasingly portable and sometimes deployed remotely.
