As millions of fall sports participants take to the field to kick off the 2013 sports season, players in a wide range of activities are wearing electronic head-impact monitoring patches (“xPatches”) developed by X2 Biosystems with advanced technology from STMicroelectronics. In addition to surpassing the milestone of 5,000 xPatch sensor systems shipped, the X2 Biosystems’ Integrated Concussion Exam software has been adopted by a...

Building on its industry-leading power management portfolio, Texas Instruments introduce its next-generation wireless power transfer circuit to support the WirelessPower Consortium 1.1 specification. The bq500212A transmitter, which is shipping in volume production, requires one-third fewer components than competitive solutions. The circuit allows designers to quickly take to market Qi-compliant wireless charge pads or stations that can operate f...

SuVolta, Inc. and Fujitsu Semiconductor Limited today announced volume production of the first Deeply Depleted Channel (DDC) transistor-based chip, MB86S22AA Milbeaut image processor integrated circuit (IC). Manufactured on “CS250S” technology, which combines Fujitsu Semiconductor’s 55nm process with DDC technology, the IC has 30 percent lower power consumption and roughly twice the processing performance compared to the existin...

“It’s all about touch screen now,” says Peter Bachmeyer, technical marketing manager at Keithley Instruments as he introduced the Model 2450 Source Meter. Bachmeyer’s argument backed up customer research is that there is a wider spread of engineers using test instruments, and that an intuitive, touch screen instrument meets their needs.
