How Semiconductor Solutions Address Safety Requirements Of Future Power Distribution Networks In Autonomous Vehicles
By Infineon - 03 Nov, 2021 - Comments: 0

Open up the bonnet of any modern automobile and many of us would be hard-pressed to find anything that we could fix ourselves. With pipes and cables almost artistically integrated into the engine bay, and sleek plastic covers fitted everywhere, there is very little that can still be recognized, yet alone repaired. Perhaps the only location where we feel comfortable is the “fuse box”, or pow... » read more

An investigation by the Automobile Association of America found that lane-keeping assist and automatic emergency braking, both high-profile ADAS features, are prone to failure in rain. According to the report, 69% of tests conducted with simulated rainfall resulted in test vehicles crossing lane markers, and 33% of simulations resulted in collisions at 35 mph. Surprisingly, risk of accidents di... » read more

Choosing A Gate Driver For Silicon Carbide MOSFETs
By Olaf Bendix - 14 Oct, 2021 - Comments: 0

If you are going to use a silicon carbide (SiC) MOSFET (Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor) in your next development, you will ask yourself: how do I develop the best gate driver for it? The answer to this question is: identify a suitable gate driver IC based on the peak current and power dissipation requirements of your application and a fitting gate resistor for your SiC... » read more

Rising Fortunes For ICs In Health Care
By Susan Rambo - 13 Oct, 2021 - Comments: 0

Semiconductors are increasingly finding their way into a variety of medical devices, after years of slow growth and largely consumer electronics types of applications. Nearly every major chipmaker has a toehold in health care these days, and many are starting to look beyond wearable such as the Apple Watch to devices that can be relied on for accuracy and reliability. Unlike in the past, the... » read more
