Aluminium electrolytic capacitors withstand 150°C and 80g vibration

Cornell Dubilier distributor, New Yorker, now offers the expanded range of NHR-Slimpack, high temperature, prismatic capacitors. The flat aluminium electrolytic capacitors have a 3,000-hour life at full-rated conditions. In addition to high temperatures and vibration, the capacitors have been tested for altitudes up to 80,000ft, for military, aerospace, industrial, and down-hole applications. The manufacturer has ...

Non-destructive carrier measurement in SiC power devices

Researchers at Nagoya Institute of Technology have found a way to create a 3D map of carriers inside silicon carbide power transistors without sawing them up, proposing the system as a way of improving SiC bipolar devices. The technique, which works down to 250μm and has ~10μm resolution, is ‘time-resolved free carrier absorption with inter-sectional lights ...

Intel to start volume ramp of 10nm Ice Lake Xeon in Q1

Intel says that a ‘volume ramp’ of its 10nm Ice Lake Xeon processor will take place during Q1. TSMC announced that it was starting the volume ramp of its 7nm process – generally seen as comparable to Intel’s 10nm process – in April 2018. TSMC began 5nm volume production last month. Intel does not expect ...
