Flash memory has supplanted other memory technologies in almost all market segments. Its success can be attributed to cost reduction through structure minimization, more information saved per cell thanks to various voltage levels (MLC and TLC flash memory), and new software features.
The ISM330DLC from STMicroelectronics is a SiP (System-in-Package) with a
digital 3D acceleration sensor and a digital 3D gyroscope tailored for industrial 4.0 applications. It is the
core of Rutronik‘s predictive maintenance demo at electronica.
Building upon the long legacy of Triaxis® sensors, the MLX90371 brings substantial improvements over the previous generation. The new stray field immune mode drastically reduces or even eliminates the effect of stray fields from other magnets or current carrying conductors found in electrified vehicles and supports both on-axis rotary or linear motion with a four-pole or two-pole magnet, respectively.
Designed to meet the growing consumer needs in the high voltage MOSFETs arena, the new 950V CoolMOS™ P7 focuses on the low-power SMPS market. Target applications range from lighting, smart meter, mobile phone charger, and notebook adaptor, over AUX power supply, to industrial SMPS.
Offering 50V more blocking voltage than its predecessor 900V CoolMOS™ C3, the new 950V CoolMOS™ P7 series delivers...
A Tesla driver died in Switzerland after his car crashed and burst into flames. In Silicon Valley, a Tesla battery reignited again and again days after catching fire in a crash. In both cases, there was talk of thermal runaway in the lithium-ion battery. What is thermal runaway and how can this risk be reduced?
