The latest news, developments and announcements from around the electronics industry.
INCIRT, the Aachen data converter IC specialist, has closed a €4.8 million funding round. Investors were Lifeline Ventures and High Tech Gründerfonds. INCIRT is developing data converters that claim to enable up to 100 times faster data conversion than previous approaches. INCIRT says it has rethought data converters and developed a system architecture that does not focus on optimising existing ...
Taoglas, the RF and antenna specialist, has brought out the FXP30x and PC30x series of embedded combination antennas, a new family of compact antennas designed to support cellular, GNSS and Wi-Fi connectivity for space-constrained electronic devices. Both series enable engineers to integrate multiple wireless technologies within a single antenna. There are six bew antenna models across two form factors: the ...
XSENS MTi-8 Click is a new motion sensing Click board from MIKROE which provides positioning (RTK-supported) and orientation tracking in demanding outdoor embedded applications. The board is based on the MTI-8-5A, an RTK-enhanced GNSS/INS module from Xsens that combines GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) positioning with advanced inertial sensing and real-time sensor fusion. Comments Nebojsa Matic, CEO of MIKROE: “This ...
Panasonic’s ERJPC high precision thick-film resistors series claim to deliver accuracy levels previously only achievable with thin film technology. With a TCR (Temperature Coefficient of Resistance) as low as 25ppm/K and tight tolerance options down to ±0.1% and ±0.5%, the new devices provide twice the power density than thin film solutions. “Our thick film technology is a real alternative to ...
A new video series looking at the future of engineering – dubbed Engineering Unlocked – has been launched by the Thief River Falls-based distributor, DigiKey. The three-episode series, which is supported by Microchip and Molex, considers the future of electronics design. Specifically, explores how new tools, open communities and STEM education will reshape the design process. For example, the impact ...
In recent years, defense spending across European Union member states and NATO countries has continued to rise, driven by the Russia-Ukraine conflict and increasing regional security concerns. As a result, military modernization programs are accelerating, with strong investment in advanced platforms such as radar systems, counter-UAV technologies, and electronic warfare. At the same time, emerging technologies—including More-Electric Aircraft (MEA), GaN/SiC ...
RANSemi Limited, the British semiconductor innovator pioneering Open RAN baseband SoCcplatforms for 4G and 5G networks, today announced that its RNS802 5G RAN baseband SoC is being used to power mission-critical and tactical wireless systems developed by Apeiroon, a portable communications innovator that deploys complete, operational 5G networks for defence, public safety, and critical industries. Apeiroon’s systems, running on RANsemi, are designed ...
At Embedded World 2026 we caught up with Greg Sheridan, Vice President of Strategy & Product at Octavo Systems, as part of our promotional coverage for the event. He asks: What if your processor, memory, and power were already solved – before you even start your design? In the interview, Greg also explains how System-in-Package (SiP) technology is transforming embedded ...
Arm has designed its first production silicon proprietary CPU which sits, in the integration hierarchy, between Arm’s IP portfolio and its Compute Subsystems products. The processor, designated Arm AGI CPU, is targeted at agentic AI infrastructure. Arm says it delivers more than two-times performance per rack compared with x86 platforms. “Today marks the next phase of the Arm compute platform ...
Elon Musk says his Terafab in Austin will produce 1TW of compute power a year compared to the current worldwide total production of 20GW a year. The fab will accomplish this by harnessing, he says, “some very interesting new physics”. “We are going to push the limits of physics in compute and do some wild and crazy things,” he says. Musk ...
