The country is investing to accelerate the development of commercial applications in fields such as chemistry, financial services and logistics optimisation, highlights Intralink, a business development consultancy. The report has been prepared by as part of the UK-APAC Tech Growth Programme, which the company is delivering for the UK government. It cites, for example, that […]
Called TLP3412SRLA, it draws 6.6mA at the nominal operating voltage of 1.8V. Inside is a single Form-A (normally-open) ac or dc contact that can handle 48V, or 400mA continuously, or 1.2A pulsed. On-state resistance is typically 1Ω and it switches on-off in 350 and 150μs respectively. Isolation voltage is at least 500Vrms. Operation is up […]
Called XPH8R316MC (90A), the company sees it being used in vehicles, in load switches, electronic relays and motor drives. A similar part, XPH13016MC, is the same except rated at 60A. In both cases, pulse rating is double the continuous current rating and the devices work with their channels up to 175°C. The maximum on-resistance of the […]
January 30, 2024 — According to reports, many chip fabs are expected to start mass production in Japan in 2024, which will stimulate the growth and development of Japan’s domestic semiconductor supply chain and improve Japan’s chip manufacturing capabilities. In Kikuyo Town, Kumamoto Prefecture, Japan, Japan Advanced Semiconductor Manufacturing (JASM), invested by TSMC, Sony and […]
January 23, 2024 — Toshiba has announced that the post-earthquake repairs of its Kaga Toshiba Electronics (located in Nomi City, Ishikawa Prefecture, Japan) are expected to be completed by the end of January. Toshiba plans to return to pre-earthquake production capacity levels in February. Kaga Toshiba Electronics is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Toshiba Electronic Devices […]
January 10, 2024 — Toshiba announced on January 9 that its factory in Ishikawa, Japan, which had been shut down due to the earthquake, had resumed partial production. Toshiba said that the production line of Kaga Toshiba Electronics Co. Ltd., a power semiconductor factory located in Nomi City, Ishikawa Prefecture, has undergone thorough equipment inspections and […]
January 5, 2024 — According to reports, Japan’s 7.6-magnitude earthquake forced chip and electronics companies in Ishikawa Prefecture to suspend operations. Affected companies include Toshiba, GlobalWafers, Murata, etc. The report pointed out that Toshiba has announced the closure of its NAND flash memory factory in Nomi City, Ishikawa Prefecture to conduct a safety assessment. The […]
Called TLP241BP, it can switch ac or dc though its single isolate 280mΩ (max) output switch – implemented as a pair of back to back mosfets – and handle pulses up to 4.2A (100ms, 1/10 duty). Output leakage is 1μA max at 40V (25°C), 10μA max at 60V and increases rapidly above 70V. Input-to-output isolation […]
“In the short-term, expanding sales of power semiconductors is the first thing Toshiba should do,” said Shimada, “we’d like to ramp up the capacity as early as possible. Power semiconductors are selling like hotcakes because of strong demand for EVs.”Earlier this month Toshiba and Rohm announced a hook-up in PMICs. Costs imposed by debt for […]
