Soraa builds second GaN-on-GaN LED fab
GaN-on-GaN LED maker Soraa is building a semiconductor fab in Syracuse New York, in partnership with the State of New York. The firm, which has a fab in Fremont California, is working with SUNY College of Nanoscale Science and Engineering, shell completion is scheduled by the end of this year, and production for the second half of ...
350W medical PSU needs no forced air
The CUS350M series of ac-dc power supplies from TDK are rated at 350W and have both medical and ITE certification to IEC 60601-1 and IEC 60950-1 standards. Requiring no forced air for cooling, the PSUs are intended for use where audible noise cannot be tolerated: hospital, dental, broadcast and professional audio application, for example. They ...

Textile pressure sensors can be washed
Flexible mechanical sensors that can be bonded or sewn into woven or knitted fabrics have been developed by German research lab Fraunhofer ISC. Deformation, force and pressure can be measured, and strains up to 100% (doubling length) can be endured. It is an elastomer film with flexible electrodes on both sides. Electrode patterning can be ...

Ambiq wins design-in with sub-threshold MPU
Sub-threshold MCU firm Ambiq Micro has won a design in for its ARM Cortex-M4F-based Apollo. This is important because, while it is route to dramatically cutting power consumption, sub-threshold operation brings with it manufacturing and yield headaches. They can be made, and analogue sub-threshold circuits are said to have been in watches for years. Getting ...
