POET Technologies, the Toronto photonics specialist, is to collaborate with Mitsubishi Electric to co-develop integrated optical engine chipsets for 3.2T pluggable transceivers. “We believe POET’s optical engines will open the possibility of creating new products where electronics photonics convergence is successfully achieved at an advanced level of integration between InP and Si-based interposer, which take us into the next generation ...
Intel selling its one million shares in ARM, a 60% profit drop at SMIC, Richard LeCain becoming CTO at the UK Battery Industrialisation Centre, TSMC record, and Mitsubishi, Nissan and Honda teaming up for EVs...
During a press event at its Hatfield branch on 15 October, Mitsubishi Electric unveiled the Melfa Assista series of collaborative robots, or “cobots”. The machines are designed to offer safety and durability combined with ease of use and programming, while maintaining high positional repeatability. Mitsubishi stressed, however, its cobots are not designed to replace its industrial robots, rather they are ...
Mitsubishi launched three high current 1.2kV three phase IGBT modules at PCIM in Nuremberg, in transfer-moulded packages. Branded ‘Large DIPIPM+’, the modules include high and low-side drive ICs. “Of special note, one of the modules achieves a world’s first high-density output of 100A/1.200V in its transfer-mould package,” said the firm, with the caveat that this is to the best of its ...
Anglia Components is to sell the Mitsubishi Electric range of displays in the UK and Ireland, following a distribution deal which significantly strengthens Anglia’s display portfolio, and extends an existing agreement with Mitsubishi covering RF devices. Steve Rawlins, CEO, Anglia, believes the Wisbech-based distributor’s customers will welcome this addition to its range. “Potential applications include designs for factory automation equipment, ...
The causes of energy-wasting ‘three-electron scattering’ have been quantified in silicon carbide devices, as far as Mitsubishi and the University of Tokyo can tell. Factors limiting resistance under SiC interface The research was revealed at the IEEE International Electron Devices Meeting (IEDM) in San Francisco this week. According to IEDM: “SiC carrier-transport studies to date have relied on computer models ...
Mitsubishi Electric has announced an addition to its GaN RF power transistor range. Intended for use in symmetric Doherty amplifiers in macro-cell basestations from 2.5 to 2.7GHz, MGFS53G27ET1 can deliver 220W (53.4dBm) saturated, operating from 50V. Linear gain is 18dB and drain efficiency is 74%. At the same time, at European Microwave Week in London, the firm was talking about ...
Mitsubishi has invented an antenna made from sea water. Branded SeaAerial, it shoots a column of water into the air to create a conductive plume for transmission and reception. “A plume of seawater can be used as an antenna if it is insulated, so Mitsubishi Electric developed an insulated nozzle that transmits radio waves to the antenna even when the ...
