Isolation Device Solution For Intelligent Power Module (IPM) Drive To Realize High-Accuracy Industrial Equipment In High Noise Environment
By Renesas - 22 Jun, 2022 - Comments: 0

As efforts to protect the environment have advanced, the use of inverters in industrial applications and green energy systems have continued to grow rapidly as a way to achieve low-power motor control and reduce power conversion loss. In recent years, this demand has been increasing more and more in relation to Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Further improvement in accuracy and downsizing... » read more

Week In Review: Manufacturing, Test
By Ed Sperling - 17 Jun, 2022 - Comments: 0

Node scaling wars are revving up, although much of the action is happening where most people can't see it — inside of research labs. This is difficult stuff, which makes delivery dates difficult to pinpoint, and no one wants to give away their competitive position or commit to a timeline they can't keep. Billions of dollars of leading-edge research — funded by pure-play foundry TSMC, IDM... » read more

Automotive, mobility U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) release its first crash reports from ADAS (advanced driver assistance systems, i.e., SAE Level 2) and ADS (automated driving systems, i.e., SAE Levels 3-5).  The systems had to be in use at least 30 seconds before the crash in order for it to be reportable. The car may have had the system turned off at the time ... » read more

Audio, Visual Advances Intensify IC Design Tradeoffs
By Ann Mutschler - 13 Jun, 2022 - Comments: 0

A spike in the number of audio and visual sensors is greatly increasing design complexity in chips and systems, forcing engineers to make tradeoffs that can affect performance, power, and cost. Collectively, these sensors generate so much data that designers must consider where to process different data, how to prioritize it, and how to optimize it for specific applications. The tradeoffs in... » read more

Sensors In Fire Detection
By SE Staff - 02 Jun, 2022 - Comments: 0

The last 10 years or so have produced some colossal and deadly fire events that have destroyed whole towns, burned a record amount of acreage, and polluted skies for weeks. And wildfires are not just happening in the Western United States but have burnt out of control in Europe, the Amazon, and Australia. Early wildfire detection and forest management via controlled burns are two ways to pre... » read more
