“Introduced under the newly launched ‘Exynos Connect’ brand, the Exynos Connect U100 offers highly precise distance measurement down to single-digit centimeters Samsung Electronics, a world leader in advanced semiconductor technology, today announced its first ultra-wideband (UWB) chipset, the Exynos Connect …
“As 3D printing technology improves, people keep finding new uses for it. And the latest is pretty sweet: cheesecake. Researchers with the department of mechanical engineering at Columbia University created a seven-ingredient slice of cake using a 3D printer, and …
“An international team led by the UNIGE has developed a quantum material in which the fabric of space inhabited by electrons can be curved on-demand. The development of new information and communication technologies poses new challenges to scientists and industry …
“A model system created by stacking a pair of monolayer semiconductors is giving physicists a simpler way to study confounding quantum behavior, from heavy fermions to exotic quantum phase transitions. The group’s paper, “Gate-Tunable Heavy Fermions in a Moiré …
“An international team led by UNIGE, HUG and NUS has developed an innovative method for evaluating AI interpretability methods, with the aim of deciphering the basis of AI reasoning and possible biases. Researchers from the University of Geneva (UNIGE), the …
“They are considered the “Holy Grail” of battery research: so-called “solid-state batteries”. They no longer have a liquid core, as is the case with today’s batteries, but consist of a solid material. This leads to several advantages: Among other …
News STMicroelectronics’ 100W and 65W VIPerGaN converters save space and raise efficiency in consumer and industrial applications
“STMicroelectronics has extended its high-voltage wide-bandgap power converter family by adding the VIPerGaN100 and VIPerGaN65 for single-switch quasi-resonant (QR) flyback converters up to 100W and 65W. The compact and highly integrated design targets switched-mode power supplies (SMPS) for USB-PD …
