Israeli startup TriEye, developer of the world's first mass-market Short-Wave Infrared (SWIR) image sensor, announced its collaboration with Trimble, a global leader in machine control technology for agriculture and construction. They partners to explore the use of next-generation SWIR-based autonomous vision systems.

Supercapacitors may be combined with batteries to add the advantages of high capacity and low internal resistance. Low leakage currents will extend battery life in this application. HY-LINE Power Components now offers a new model optimized specifically for this use case.

Power Integrations, an expert in high-voltage integrated circuits for energy-efficient power conversion, announced its 600 V 12 A Qspeed diode, delivering the industry’s lowest reverse recovery charge (Qrr) for a silicon diode.

Globalfoundries new Singapore facility is the first step of the companies’ plan to expand its global manufacturing footprint to meet increasing worldwide customer demand.   

The acquisition of Avid Technology helps Turntide decarbonize the transportation sector and offers a high-performance alternative to the use of rare earth magnets in electric vehicles.

TDK Corporation extended its range of TVS (transient voltage suppression) diodes characterized by their extremely low capacitance values for bidirectional overvoltage protection to include the ULC series (Ultra Low Clamping & Capacitance). The SD01005SL-ULC101 type has a minimum capacitance of ~0.5 pF and the SD0201SL-ULC101 type of ~0.6 pF, both at 1 MHz.

Floating photovoltaic power plants can contribute to the expansion of renewable energy without taking up land. RWE Renewables, the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems ISE and the Brandenburg University of Technology Cottbus-Senftenberg (BTU) are working together to further develop this innovative technology with other partners.

The two research teams from the LaserApplicationCenter and the Materials Research Institute Aalen are working on the question of how they can improve the fast-charging capability of lithium-ion batteries - for example, to reduce annoying waiting times at charging stations for electric cars.

The US semiconductor manufacturer GlobalFoundries has turned down Intel's intention for a takeover. The company intends to continue operating independently and is aiming for global expansion with new production facilities.

TDK Corporation developed new HPL505032F1 power inductors for use in automotive circuits. The inductors enable level 5 ADAS applications for cameras by offering high-current and low-inductance for power circuits in central processing units and graphic processing units, such as advanced driver-assistance systems.
