ON Semiconductor is targeting digital radiography in medical treatments with a new CCD image sensor that enables video imaging under reduced x-ray dosage conditions. The KAF-09001 image sensor incorporates an improved output architecture that supports a high sensitivity video mode, facilitating patient positioning while minimising overall x-ray exposure. With a resolution of 9 megapixels, the sensor has the same 12µm ...
A new report says it is possible that plastic electronics technology is set to revolutionise the consumer electronics industry, with lower costs.
A dual precision op amp from STMicroelectronics is designed to have a low and temperature-stable input-offset voltage. The TSZ182 op amp has a chopper-stabilised design and a 3MHz gain-bandwidth. The offset voltage of 25µV at 25°C is designed for high measurement resolution and accuracy without external trimming components. Offset drift is specified by the supplier at less than 100nV/°C. The ...

GSPK Design secures quality accreditation in support of its business designing and manufacturing electronic devices for the medical device market.
The Queen’s New Year Honours list for 2017 has been announced, and bio-technology is a dominant theme among technology-related achievements (genetic profiling, bioinformatics, DNA sequencing). Leading the way is Sir Alec John Jeffreys, Emeritus Professor at Leicester University, who has been made Companion Of Honour (CH). A founding father of genetic profiling, he developed the concept of DNA fingerprinting. His ...
