Low-noise general-purpose p-channel JFET is more available

By

Linear Integrated Systems has general-purpose version of its low-noise LSJ74 p-channel JFET, called LS94. “The LSJ74 is a world-class option for designers seeking to build ultra-low-noise circuits, but the part currently has limited availability,” said the firm. “Because the LS94 has slightly higher noise, and is offered in a single IDSS range versus the multiple …

ISSCC: Novel gate drive improves GaN power transistor switching

By

GaN power transistors can shrink AC‑DC power supplies and cut losses but, to get the best out of them, their gate drive waveform needs careful attention. As a German team pointed out at ISSCC, GaN transistors have a threshold voltage of ~1V, which makes them vulnerable to spurious turn‑on through the Miller capacitance, particularly when …

Apple talking to Yangtze River about buying NAND

By

Apple is talking to China’s Yangtze River Storage Technologies about sourcing NAND, reports the Nikkei. It is possible that Apple, whose products are assembled in China, is being pressured by China to buy from Yangtze River, and it is not known what quantities are being discussed. Analysts are sceptical about the ability of the emerging …

Blocking

By

Home Secretary Amber Rudd says she does not rule out forcing companies to adopt blocking software for IS propaganda which was developed in a government-sponsored project by ASI Data Sciences. On the face of it, legislating to force sites to install the software seems a good idea. Then, of course, you look at the precedent …

Updated: Creating an accurate low voltage using PWM

By

Back in October I was pondering the creation of accurate micro-voltages from a microcontroller. What makes this so difficult is the voltage offset created by current in the microcontroller bond wire, amongst other things. Update – see ‘filtering’ below Anyway, I finally got around to trying it, and measuring the voltages. Pulses came from an …

Arm introduces IP for machine learned in edge devices

By

Arm has announced a suite of IP, collected together under the provisional title of Project Trillium, to bring machine learning to edge devices. The suite includes scalable machine learning and object detection processors, claimed to enable trillions of machine learning operations per second on mobile devices. As well as machine learning, the suite is intended …
