STMicroelectronics’ 50W GaN converter enables high-efficiency power designs in consumer and industrial applications

“The STMicroelectronics VIPerGaN50 simplifies building single-switch flyback converters up to 50 Watts and integrates a 650V gallium-nitride (GaN) power transistor for superior energy efficiency and miniaturization. With its single-switch topology and high integration, including current-sensing and protection circuitry also built-in …

STMicroelectronics reveals 2.5V rad-hard digital-to-analog converter for next-generation satellite applications

“The STMicroelectronics RHRDAC121 radiation-hardened digital-to-analog converter (DAC) operates down to 2.5V for use in modern, low-power system designs that older 3.3V parts cannot support. Consuming just 0.6mW at its maximum speed and supply voltage, the 12-bit 1Msps …

Things are heating up for superconductors

“Researchers at LiU have, by way of a number of theoretical calculations, shown that magnesium diboride becomes superconductive at a higher temperature when it is stretched. The discovery is a big step toward finding superconductive materials that are useful in …
