3D-NAND flash is about to make a breakthrough. The new memory technology has made enormous progress in recent years and offers an interesting alternative to the established 2D-NAND memories used in SSDs. Next generation memory architectures, such as QLC NAND, show the direction of development.
The world witnesses a rapid rise in the number of battery powered devices - among them more and more electric vehicles (EVs). Consequently, battery manufacturers see themselves confronted with a steady growing demand and hence with the challenge to increase efficiency throughout their factories. Also in battery formation - the known bottleneck given the big investment and the extremely time consuming...
The more powerful and all-embracing the Internet becomes, and the more advanced the components that make connected devices “smart” become, the more areas of application are being opened up. In combination with software, microcontrollers form the heart and soul of sensor technology within Industry 4.0 and IoT technologies. While the connectivity of smart factories and smart homes offers immense potential for...
With fluctuating fuel prices on the one hand and dropping initial cost of buying electric vehicles on the other, consumers start paying more attention to catch phrases like green transportation, zero emission targets, air quality improvement, and sustainable urban mobility. No matter what is the motivation for switching to alternative energy supplies, the industry reports skyrocketing sales of e-bikes and...
Motors across the industrial and automotive sectors are migrating to BLDCs in order to maximise efficiency and reliability. This article looks at the important MOSFET parameters that should be considered during the design process.
