The new TMR analog front-end ASA 2310 from TDK-Micronas offers signal conditioning optimized for TMR-bridge angle sensors including enhanced applicative compensation features and safety supervision. This article explains the various advantages of rotor position sensor solutions based on the ASA 2310 with its robust output buffer and based on analog TMR sensors of the TAS family and the ASA 2310.

Würth Elektronik has extended the product families of its MagI3C power modules with the MagI3C-FIMM Fixed Isolated MicroModule. It combines the features of an isolated power module with those of a MicroModule in an LGA-7 package: It represents one of the best modules in the portfolio of fully isolated modules - with an efficiency up to 91 %.

Based on signed in 2021 Memorandum of Understanting, Impact Clean Power technology S.A., ITOCHU Plantech Inc. and Toshiba Energy Systems and Solutions Corp. started the development of hydrogen fuel cell system dedicated for heavy duty transportation. The Fuel Cell Stack is designed by Toshiba and the device has double longer lifetime than ever existing.

In the first nine months of this year, German manufacturers of electrical installation systems recorded a 9.5 % increase in sales. In addition, supply chains have stabilized somewhat in the meantime, but are not yet as reliable as they were before Corona in the case of preliminary electronics products.

When it comes to mobility, the future is electric. Battery-powered vehicles are the future. Going rechargeable is the way forward. In 2020, the European Commission published a European Battery Regulation proposal to bring sustainability into battery manufacturing and use. Planned for enactment later this year, it has the potential to change the battery supply chain globally forever.

The global food industry is a high energy consumer; a situation it must address to reduce carbon footprint and save costs.This article looks at three possible ways to improve sustainability; buying green energy, building or investing in renewable energy sources, and upgrading onsite equipment and processes to improve efficiency.

This paper looks at the benefits of tandem diodes in sixpack and PIM topologies. The smart pairing of diodes with lower dynamic loss coefficients provides a cost effective alternative to WBG devices.

Heavy-duty vehicles contribute about 25% of traffic emissions. To electrify them, batteries of e.g., urban buses need to be loaded fast without interrupting the operation – demanding highly efficient, reliable electric subsystems.

MVDC grids are increasingly present in the existing AC systems regarding integration of renewable energy resources. This creates the need to master the design of medium-frequency transformers, one of the key components of modern DC transformers.

Ceramic substrate materials and adapted thick-film pastes and inks can make a significant contribution to realizing future 6G and millimeter wave radar applications. Read our latest white paper for more information.

Even with advances in battery technology and electromechanics, OEMs struggle to meet the mix of expectations on ultralow emissions performance, vehicle range, and consumer affordability. Innovations in the fields of isolation, power management, magnetics sensing, and battery management systems (BMS) can help OEMs meet the expectations on ultralow emissions, range, and vehicle cost.

The lithium-ion battery technology available today does not yet meet the required safety standards. Fraunhofer ISIT has addressed this issue and is developing accumulators that meet the high standards of medical technology.

Can we contribute to the worldwide energy challenge by maximizing the efficiency in power conversion at a low cost? The answer is: YESvGaN! So, the goal of the YESvGaN consortium is to create a new class of vertical power transistors based on Gallium Nitride (GaN), so-called vertical GaN membrane transistors.

Bristol-led team uses nanomaterials made from seaweed to create a strong battery separator, paving the way for greener and more efficient energy storage. Great expectations are placed on the new energy storage system for the future, but researchers have to work with challenges.

Power Integrations a supplier in high-voltage integrated circuits for energy-efficient power conversion, launched a new function in PI Expert, the powerful online design tool that automatically generates optimized power supply designs based on users’ specifications.

Arm heralds a new beginning for global computing infrastructure with the new Neoverse V2 (codenamed "Demeter"). It is the latest Arm core to deliver leading per-thread performance for cloud, hyperscale and HPC workloads. Industry leaders in cloud, 5G, HPC and edge are choosing Arm Neoverse as the compute foundation for their next-generation infrastructure solutions.

Renesas Electronics Corporation, a specialist in advanced semiconductor solutions, has launched a new integrated development environment that allows engineers to rapidly create software for automotive ECUs (Electronic Control Units) containing multiple hardware devices.

Modern vehicles have a large number of electronic systems that are networked with each other. Since these systems are at risk from cyber attacks, Fraunhofer IPMS developed a CANsec IP core that makes vehicle systems more secure. The IP core is already being evaluated in a demonstration by partner Renesas Electronics Corporation.
