Google has begun the process of rolling out Android 15, the latest version of its mobile operating system, beginning with Pixel devices. Specifically, the company has released the Android 15 source code and made it available at the Android Open Source Project (AOSP). While the latest major release will be available on supported Pixel devices in “coming weeks”, access will ...

Aiming at vehicle traction, Infineon has put a pair of 3,300V 1,000A 1.9 mΩ silicon carbide trench mosfets into its 100 x 140 x 40mm ‘XHP 2’ module housing, calling the module FF2000UXTR33T2M1. This package is rated for 6kV testing, and achieves 2.6kV partial discharge extinction. Creepage is 40mm terminal to baseplate and 34mm between terminals. Clearance is 31 and ...

Google is rebranding TensorFlow Lite to LiteRT (as in “lite runtime”). This lets you deploy ML and AI models on Android, iOS, and embedded devices. Basically, for on-device AI at the Edge. Google writes about the name change for the runtime that supports models other than those solely authored with TensorFlow: “Since its debut in 2017, TFLite has enabled developers ...

Pickering Interfaces, has announced a family of one-slot PXI and PXIe programmable resistor modules that can handle 2A, 200V or 15W. Models 40-254 (PXI) and 42-254 (PXIe) come in 28 variants, summarised as: two channel versions with various narrow resistance ranges, and then single channel versions with various narrow, medium or wide resistance ranges. PXI vVersions are compatible with PXI ...

NXP has combined short-range 6 – 8.5GHz UWB radar, secure ranging and angle-of-arrival processing on a single chip. Called SR250, it is for “a world that anticipates and automates, enabling a variety of new user experiences based on location, presence or motion detection across consumer or industrial IoT applications”, claimed the company. It is said to support 3D angle-of-arrival and ...

Infineon has announced seven 30V mosfets in TO-220 packaging. They are part of its StrongIRfet 2 family, which are less qualified that its industrially-rated Optimos devices. “The new power mosfets were designed to meet the requirements of mass market applications – switched-mode power supplies, motor drives, battery management systems and uninterruptible power supplies,” it said. Resistance and gate charge improvements ...

Nexperia has put more single and dual small-signal mosfets into DFN1110D-3 (SOT8015) and DFN1412-6 (SOT1268) packages, with side-wettable flanks for automated optical inspection. “The 1.1 x 1mm DFN1110D-3 package has seen increasingly wide adoption, and is quickly becoming the de-facto industry standard package for small-signal mosfets and bipolar transistors intended for use in automotive applications,” according to the company. “Superior ...

TDK has introduced a series of high-value metal-framed multi-chip ceramic capacitors for automotive electric power trains, on-board chargers and wireless power transfer systems, where the capacitors must handle high currents or voltages, or have high capacity. “To meet these needs, TDK developed the CA series, the largest MLCCs in the industry [6 x 5.6 x 6.4mm] with a metal frame ...

Magnachip has come up with four new 40V MXT MV MOSFETs designed in PDFN 33 packages for automotive applications. PDFN33 packages reduce footprint by more than 60% and the weight by approximately 75% compared to PDFN56. Three of the devices – AMDV040N029LVRH, AMDV040N036LVRH, and AMDV040N042LVRH – have a gate threshold voltage of 1.8V. Magnachip’s New Automotive 40V MXT MV MOSFETs The key ...

Rohde & Schwarz is looking forward to times when nations mandate radar testing as part of annual vehicle inspections. It has created RadEst, a radar target simulator intended to function in the tough world of vehicle workshops. As well as simulating targets, the unit can measure radar parameters such as EIRP (equivalent isotropic radiated power) and occupied bandwidth. “With an ...
