Imec has come up with a perovskite LED stack emitting light a thousand times brighter than state-of-the-art OLEDs. This result is a pivotal milestone towards a perovskite injection laser, promising applications in image projection, environmental sensing, medical diagnostics, and beyond. The maximum brightness of OLEDs remains limited; just think of trying to read your smartphone screen on a very sunny ...

AMD has introduced a motor driver starter kit for its Kria K24 system-on-module – which is built around a Zynq UltraScale+ IC and measures 60 x 42 x 11mm. The kit, called KD240 drives starter kit, includes the module, a carrier card and a heat sink. Included is 2Gbyte (2chan x 256Mbit x 16bit/chan) of LPDDR4, and a 512Mbit QSPI ...

Littelfuse has invented an AEC-Q200-qualified temperature monitoring tape for electric vehicle batteries. Branded TTape, it detects local over-heating via thermally sensitive spots spaced along its length, all connected in series. The spots are positive temperature coefficient thermistors. “Distinguishing itself from NTCs [negative temperature coefficient thermistors], the profound advantage of localised cell overheating detection ensures quicker alerts to the battery management ...

Würth Elektronik has introduced two families of surface-mount multi-channel galvanic isolators for digital signals. Devices in the WPME-CDIP family have four 100Mbit/s isolated channels and a built-in dc-dc converter that provides isolated power from one side to the other. Different versions have different combinations of digital isolator directions: all from input to output, three in that direction and one returning, ...

STMicroelectronics has made a custom 316Mpixel 18K image sensor for a company with a super-high resolution cinema in Las Vegas. The die measures 99 x 83mm (82.4cm2) – four fit onto a 300mm wafer (right). It can capture images at 120frame/s and transfer data at 60Gbyte/s. “Building a custom sensor of this size, resolution and speed, with low noise, high ...

Advantech has used AMD Ryzen Embedded 7000 processors in a series of industrial ATX motherboards dubbed AIMB-723. “This is the first industrial-grade motherboard integrated with the AMD B650 chipset, delivering high computing performance with a seven-year lifespan,” said Advantech. “It stands out as the first AIMB motherboard to embrace DDR5 UDIMM, as well as support up to a three-slot discrete ...

iWave has announced system-on-modules built around Intel’s Agilex 5 E-series FPGAs, which have AI algorithm support. iW-RainboW-G58M measures 60 x 70mm, and is available with any of the 5 E-series ICs that come in Intel’s B32A (32x32mm) package. “Agilex 5 system-on-module is an ideal building block for equipment used in wireless communications, video, broadcast and industrial test and measurement sectors,” ...

Vishay has introduced four ultra-fast 200V rectifier diodes: VS-1EAH02xM3 (1A) VS-2EAH02xM3 (2A), VS-3EAH02xM3 (3A) VS-5EAH02xM3 (5A) “Their low-profile DFN3820A housings provide a space-saving solution with high efficiency, predestined for commercial, industrial and especially automotive applications – they are each available as Vishay Automotive Grade, AEC-Q101 qualified versions,” according to distributor Rutronik, which is stocking the parts. Taking the 3A VS-3EAH02HM3 ...

Epishine, the Swedish indoor solar power specialist, and Nichicon, the Japanese capacitor manufacturer, have come up with a self-charging battery concept. The idea is to combine Epishine’s  solar cells and Nichicon’s  LTO-batteries in an integrated solderless autonomous power product which is an alternative  to disposable and re-chargeable batteries, reducing time-to-market and cutting down on product development costs. “We’ve created a ...

E-peas has created an energy harvesting IC specifically for hand-held remote controls and wireless keyboards equipped with small solar cells. A cold start is possible from an input voltage as low as 275mV if 5µW of power is available. There are two versions, which optimise loading of the photovoltaic source in two different ways to get the best out of ...
