KPIT Technologies, a software development and integration partner to the automotive and mobility industry, and dSPACE, a global provider of simulation and validation solutions, have teamed up to offer a comprehensive solution test suite for smart charging. The combination of KPIT conformance test libraries for the dSPACE hardware component — the DS5366 Smart Charging Interface — enables this comprehensive solution suite.

The chip shortage continues in 2022. While some experts believe that the situation will improve this year, others are convinced that the crisis will persist into 2023. This article summarizes the most important chip shortage news in January 2022.

In a new study, researchers at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities used a customized printer to fully 3D print a flexible organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display. The discovery could result in low-cost OLED displays in the future that could be widely produced using 3D printers by anyone at home, instead of by technicians in expensive microfabrication facilities.

Vitesco Technologies has won an order worth more than 1 billion euros from a major North American car manufacturer. The company will supply millions of 800-volt inverters with silicon carbide technology – a key enabler for fast charging and improving EV efficiency and range.

2021 was a tough year for us all, but a number of industries faced extra challenges in the face of a global shortage of microchips. This led to turmoil in the consumer electronics and automotive industries as manufacturers struggled to meet customer demand for everything from mobile phones to automobiles.

The future of mobility will be carbon-neutral, autonomous, fully connected and cyber secure. Microelectronics are at the core of this transformation. Infineon Technologies AG launches a new generation of its AURIX microcontroller family (MCU).

In this series of articles, we will explain the inherent architectural benefits of CTSD ADCs and how they are adapted to a wide range of precision medium bandwidth applications. We will take a deep dive into signal chain design to educate designers on the key advantages of CTSD technology and explore the AD4134 precision ADC’s ease of design features.

Pattern Energy Group LP announced it has completed construction and begun commercial operation of its suite of Western Spirit Wind power projects. Western Spirit Wind is comprised of four wind power facilities totaling more than 1,050 MW located in Guadalupe, Lincoln, and Torrance Counties in central New Mexico.

Marking a new chapter in European industrial history, the cell is the first to have been fully designed, developed and assembled at a gigafactory by a homegrown European battery company.

The high-voltage battery is located centrally in the drive and literally in the middle of the Audi RS Q e-tron. It embodies the heart of the innovative electric drive with energy converter. Audi intends to use it to set the next milestone in the world’s toughest rally and prove “Vorsprung durch Technik” (free translation: head start through technology) in the desert as well.
