Maxim is claiming simple route to protecting sensitive data in IoT end-nodes with a pair of security supervisor chips. Called MAX36010 and MAX36011, “these make it easier for designers to implement robust tamper detection, cryptography and secure storage while safeguarding sensitive information via logical and physical protections, without having to be security experts themselves – that ...

Osram has released the second generation of blue multi-mode laser diodes for car headlights, doubling range in auxiliary high beams compared to with its previous lasers, to 600m, it claims. What lasers offer over LEDs as a light source is higher light output per unit area (luminance) – which then allows a slimmer smaller optical ...
