The Fraunhofer Institute for Photonic Microsystems IPMS and IP provider CAST have immediate availability of EMSA5-FS, a fault-tolerant embedded RISC-V processor IP core designed to meet the most stringent functional safety requirements of automotive, air-borne, and other safety-critical applications. Developed by Fraunhofer IPMS, the EMSA5-FS Embedded Functional Safety RISC-V Processor is a 32-bit, in-order, single-issue, five-stage pipeline processor supporting the ...
Sondrel is making it easier to bring automotive chips to the market which can be daunting due to the high safety standards required – ISO 26262. Sondrel is facilitating the process with the launch of its new, quad-channel, IP reference platform that has been architected with ISO26262 applications and the fast integration of customer IP in mind from the start. ...
Nexperia has introduced a pair of 0.55mΩ Rds(on) 40V power mosfets in an 8 x 8mm packaging. BUK7S0R5-40H is for automotive use (AEC-Q101-qualified) PSMNR55-40SSH is for industrial applications Both are 500A 375W transistors operating across -55 to +175°C in 1.7mm tall high-reliability LFPAK88 (SOT1235) packages, which use a copper clip to improve heat flow. The 500A rating is up to ~60°C. “500A continuous ...
ULEMCo, the UK hydrogen fuel pioneer, has signed an MoU with ENGV of Australia to collaborate on developing a market for its hydrogen dual fuel technology. The scope of the agreement extends across Australia and into commercial vehicles, particularly heavy-duty applications like refuse collection, urban trucks, buses and prime movers. In the effort to transition to decarbonised transport, HGVs are ...
Oxbotica and the Transport Research Laboratory have piloted the use of a Code of Practice for the deployment of autonomous vehicles in off-highway environments, with a live trial conducted in a quarry using a number of off-road vehicles. The Code is available to download here The Code identifies the key elements for safe and efficient deployment of autonomous vehicles in ...
German automotive part maker Mahle is developing an electric motor that does not require permanent magnets, and so does not need rare earth elements. Like a permanent magnet synchronous motor, favoured by many electric vehicle makers, Mahle’s motor is a synchronous machine, but instead of rare earth permanent magnets in the rotor it has electromagnets. To remove the wear and drag ...
TFT displays can be integrated into a variety of installations, in industrial and commercial settings. Assemblies are typically made up of a touch panel or cover lens and the display, with an air gap between the two. When an external light source (natural sunlight or ambient lighting) enters the front of the assembly, the light passes through the touch panel ...
STMicroelectronics is aiming to protect CAN and CAN-FD interfaces with a low-capacitance dual automotive-qualified transient voltage suppressor. Called ESDCAN03-2BM3Y, it has two bidirectional suppressors with a common connection in a 1.1 x 1.0mm package and can clamp as low as 33V with 1A 8/20µs transients, or 37V with a 16A transmission-line pulse – peak 8/20μs pulse rating is 3.3A. It passes ISO ...
Lead times are stretching out, according to the trading and investment group Susquehanna. “All major product categories up considerably,” says Susquehanna analyst Chris Rolland, particularly instancing PMICs and analogue, “these were some of the largest increases since we started tracking the data.” According to Rolland average lead times went up by a week in April to 17 weeks from 16 ...
Infineon has teamed up with Reality AI to give vehicles a sense of hearing. “This solution enables cars to ‘see’ around the corner and to warn about moving objects hidden in the blind spot or approaching emergency vehicles, cars and other road participants, even if they cannot be seen by driver or detected by the sensors incorporated in the vehicles’ ...
