Targeting high-end body and drivetrain domain and zone controllers, STMicro’s new MCUs enable advanced vehicle electronic architectures running multiple independent applications...
As the IEEE honors STMicro for its work on mixed-signal ICs in the 1980s, Lee Goldberg ponders what electronics would have been like if they hadn't been invented.
Members of the family target applications ranging from on-board chargers, LiDAR for autonomous driving, and bidirectional dc-dc converters to Class-D amplifiers and power-conversion...
Semi makers are doubling down on SiC, e-trucks continue to gain momentum, and better batteries loom on the horizon, but will low-pressure hydrogen storage make them obsolete?
PowerBites "held the presses" to bring you two technologies that make SiC power devices easier to work with, and two others that simplify driving BLDCs and high-power...
This issue of PowerBites includes a call for papers to the PowerUP virtual power conference, several novel converters that offer more buck for fewer bucks, and an improved totem-pole-style...
Low-power radar MMICs at 24 and 77 GHz provide the electromagnetic-sensor data that combines with video cameras and LiDAR systems for reliable ADAS coverage.
The company upgraded its new flagship family of ultra-low-power microcontrollers from a 90-nm to 40-nm node, giving it a performance-per-watt boost while adding more memory and...
This week’s installment of PowerBites offers up a range of new developments, from an ASIL-D DAQ system to a resettable eFuse to Hybrid IGBTs to GaN power ICs, plus more.
The battery management ICs in electric vehicles have become a big battleground for chip makers in recent years. In this gallery, we look at some of the latest products in the category...
This edition of PowerBites delves into designing tougher power systems, student e-racers preparing for a post-pandemic competition, and APEC’s return from cyberspace this year...
In this round-up of the latest news in power tech, highlights include a GaN solution integrating two asymmetric transistors, versatile programmable PMICs, a wireless BMS for ASIL...
