Development of USB-C battery charging applications simplified
Supplier of advanced semiconductor solutions, Renesas Electronics, has announced two new reference designs that simplify and speed the development of USB Power Delivery (PD3.0) and USB-C battery charging applications such as USB-C computing hubs, power banks, car chargers, SSD enclosures, point of sale (POS) printers, and desktop displays.
Grant received to develop ultra-bright thin-film light sources
The European Research Council has awarded an advanced grant to Paul Heremans, Fellow and Director Large Area Electronics at imec. Paul Heremans will receive €2.5m for a five year project to develop ultra-bright thin-film light sources and lasers, a technology with a wide variety of applications, such as optical interconnects, augmented reality displays and lidar sensors.
MCU and dev kit simplify low-cost IoT development
The recently launched Renesas Synergy S5D3 microcontroller (MCU) and development board is now being shipped by RS Components. The TB-S5D3 Target Board Kit enables engineers to evaluate, prototype and develop IoT endpoint designs based on Renesas Electronics’ new entry-level S5D3 MCU Group.
High reliability white chip offers a long operational life
ROHM has announced the availability of the SMLD12WBN1W, a white chip LED with 1608 (1.6x0.8mm) size that achieves reliability. This new package offers mountability and long operational life, which makes it suitable for use in display panels (e.g. temperature control displays) in industrial and compact consumer equipment.
High-performance remote I/O node for self-propelled machines
The JXM-IO-E30 expansion module by Jetter is a universal and remote I/O node for self-propelled machines. Equipped with a well-balanced configuration of analog and digital inputs and outputs as well as three short-circuit-proof sensor supplies, the module can be integrated via CANopen into conventional CAN networks of self-propelled machines, such as manure spreaders, forage wagons, dump trucks, sweepers or salt spreaders.
Quad port expander for high-speed interfaces
