ROHM Semiconductor, headquartered in Kyoto, Japan, has developed a new series of PWM-controlled FET-external universal controller ICs, tailored for industrial AC-DC power supplies. The company has launched four new products in production, including the "BD28C55FJ-LB" for low-voltage MOSFETs, "BD28C54FJ-LB" for medium-to-high-voltage MOSFETs, "BD28C57LFJ-LB" for IGBT drivers, and "BD28C57HFJ-LB" for SiC MOSFETs.

Malvern, Pennsylvania, USA, and Shanghai, China — August 20, 2024 — Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. today announced the release of its new silicon PIN photodiode, the VEMD8082, which offers enhanced sensitivity for biomedical applications such as heart rate and blood oxygen monitoring at visible/near-infrared wavelengths. Compared to previous generations, the VEMD8082 features higher reverse photocurrent, lower diode capacitance, and faster rise and fall times. Additionally, its compact size of just 4.8 mm x 2.5 mm x 0.5 mm makes it ideal for integration into slim devices such as smartwatches.

According to a report published on the 15th in Science, an international research team, including members from North Carolina State University and POSTECH in South Korea, has demonstrated a groundbreaking technique for printing metal oxide thin films at room temperature. This innovation has led to the creation of durable, high-temperature-resistant, and transparent flexible circuits.

Custom connector designs often start as niche products with limited applications but can evolve into popular proprietary connectors over time. Initially designed and manufactured by a single source, proprietary connectors can become lucrative if widely adopted.

A team led by the University at Buffalo has developed the highest-performing high-temperature superconducting (HTS) wire segment to date, opening new possibilities for harnessing magnetic forces and potentially transforming energy infrastructure and even enabling commercial nuclear fusion. The breakthrough is detailed in the latest issue of Nature Communications.

Common Mode Semiconductor is proud to announce the release of the GM12071, a 20V/500mA low-power, low-noise LDO (Low Dropout) voltage regulator designed to replace ADI’s ADP7104 and ADP7102. The GM12071, a CMOS-based LDO, operates from 1.9V to 20V and delivers a maximum output current of 500mA.

Naxin Microelectronics, a leading provider of high-performance analog and mixed-signal ICs, has announced a strategic partnership with DigiKey, a global leader in electronic component distribution. This collaboration establishes a global distribution partnership, enhancing the availability of Naxin Microelectronics' products to customers worldwide.

Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. is pleased to announce the launch of its new CHA Series of film resistors on August 2, 2024, which have been certified to AEC-Q200 standards.
