Some of the UK’s Harley Street outpatient clinics specialising in delivering expert mental health support have partnered with Flow Neuroscience to offer patients a new medically approved brain stimulation headset to treat depression. The type of brain stimulation used in the Flow headset has been shown in independent clinical studies to have a similar impact to antidepressants but with fewer and less-severe side effects.

WITH the release of Inox versions of its GR6 rectangular and GR18 cylindrical sensors, SICK has delivered rough, tough, high-availability photoelectric performers for detection duties in harsh environments such as chemical washdown or the presence of aggressive oils, lubricants and dust.

Fearsome, lethal, killers; the reputation of the tiger shark has long haunted our culture, leading to these creatures being miscast as villains of the seas. Immotion’s new VR experience, Shark Dive, sheds a revealing light on the personality and habits of these wondrous animals, allowing people to get closer to them than ever before, and understanding their strategic place as an apex predator in a fragile ecosystem.

Several products from Lite-On Semiconductor, including Glass Passivated Bridge Rectifiers and a new series of Sic Schottky Diodes have been released by New Yorker Electronics. Since 2011, the manufacturer has been the largest global AC/DC GPP Bridge supplier. The NTT, the LVF/Ultra LVF and the GBJS have high surge current capacities and high heat dissipation.

Showa Denko has developed a second generation high-grade silicon carbide (SiC) epitaxial wafer (HGE-2G) suitable for power semiconductors. SDK has been mass-producing the first generation of high grade SiC epitaxial wafer with very low defect density under the trade name of 'High-Grade Epi' (HGE). HGE-2G achieves further improvements in quality with six inches (150mm) diameter.

UnitedSiC has added two new TO220-3L package options to its growing range of hard-switching UF3C FAST series of 650V SiC FETs. The new products offer RDS(on) values of 30mohms (UF3C065030T3S) and 80mohms (UF3C065080T3S). The three-leaded, industry-standard TO220-3L package features enhanced thermal characteristics made possible by a sintered-silver packaging technology.

High energy density switch-mode power supplies (SMPSs) can accelerate battery charging, reduce the size of solar micro-inverters, and meet the demand of server farm power requirements, all without generating excessive heat. However, engineers are now reaching the performance limits of the silicon MOSFETs and IGBTs that form the primary switching elements of conventional SMPSs. Instead, transistors constructed from enhancement-mode gallium nitride...

A chatbot therapist to treat depression has launched as recent figures show that NHS patients seeking help with their mental health are waiting more than eight weeks to see a doctor after their first appointment.

In this video Brandon Becker, Product Manager of Industrial Wide Band Gap at ON Semiconductor will give you an overview of wide bandgap capabilities focusing on self and carbide SiC for short silicon power devices.

A key element of the propulsion system for low speed urban transportation to high speed intercity trains is the traction converter that transforms the power from the power source, whether a catenary or diesel engine, to drive the electric motors.
