According to a Business Standard report (as republished by Communications Today), Kaynes Semicon will deliver a prototype of a chip to its very first paying customer, Alpha & Omega Semiconductor (AOS), who will test it to ensure it works as required before full production gets approved. This means the prototype will go through an approximately three-month qualification process that…

ROHM has introduced a new 100V power MOSFET called RY7P250BM that’s optimized for hot-swap circuits in 48V power systems that we see in AI servers and industrial power supplies. The product is tailored for AI servers and data centers, where rising power demands from generative AI and high-performance GPUs push systems to adopt more efficient 48V architecture. Hot-swap circuits are circuits…

Humanoid robots powered by AI engaged in a football match for the first time in Beijing, China, on June 28, 2025. Reports say that the robots dressed in black and purple jerseys took on each other in a 3 vs 3 match that was played in two 10-minute halves. The event featured four teams from three Chinese universities: Tsinghua University (THU Robotics), Beijing Information Science and…

An Indian defence and aerospace startup, Raphe mPhibr, has raised $100 million in a new private funding round, which was the largest ever in India’s aerospace and defence sector. With this, the company’s total funding stands at $145 million. The money will go towards expanding aircraft design, engineering, and manufacturing facilities.

Raphe mPhibr develops UAVs, including the mR10,…

Reports say chronic pain affects 51.6 million Americans, and the effects are considered “high-impact” for about 17 million of them, influencing their life or work. Traditional methods of pain relief, such as opioid medications, carry the risk of addiction among other side effects. Current spinal cord stimulators are alternatives, but are expensive and require invasive surgery with a need for…

Luke Ditria has created a tinier and less expensive version of a wildlife-monitoring device that he built earlier. The tool makes use of AI to detect animals in real time, without needing the internet. The original version’s use of a Raspberry Pi 5 and Hailo AI accelerator led to its increased price. This compact version uses a Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W and a smart camera that has AI built into it…

Vishay Intertechnology has announced an expansion of its CHA series of thin film chip resistors. The resistors, being AEC-Q200 qualified, meet strict automotive reliability standards. The initial launch was in a 02016 case size, supporting up to 70 GHz, and the currently introduced model is in a 0402 case size.

Though the frequency performance goes slightly down from up to 70GHz to…

Nordic Semiconductor has acquired its longtime partner, Memfault Inc., a cloud platform company. This acquisition results in something that’s the first of its kind: a complete chip-to-cloud platform managing connected devices across their entire lifecycle. Nordic now offers hardware, software, and cloud services as one integrated solution.

With this new platform, Nordic is shifting from…

A jet-powered humanoid robot named iRonCub3 just took its first flight. This robot, developed by the Italian Institute of Technology (IIT) in Genoa, lifted about 50 cm (1.5 feet) off the ground while maintaining stability. It has four engines, two on the arms and two on a jetpack on its back. This development follows years of research and testing that include real-world flight tests and…

Murata has introduced a 3-axis accelerometer called the SCA3400-D01. It is designed for use in structural health monitoring, machine control, inertial measurement units, construction tools and systems, tilt sensing, levelling & platform stabilization, and positioning & guidance systems. 3-axis sensing means measuring motion or tilt in X, Y, and Z directions.

The ultra-low noise…

Researchers have reportedly created a low-cost biosensor at Birla Institute of Technology and Science (BITS), Hyderabad campus. Their biosensor is said to cost only ₹15 to make. What it offers is a way to detect health markers without needles, bypassing traditional blood tests. In a span of five minutes, it can detect chemical compounds called metabolites from blood, sweat, urine, and cells.…

China’s National University of Defence Technology (NUDT) created a mosquito-sized drone, roughly 1.3 centimeters long, tailored for stealth tasks like intelligence gathering for the military. The tiny size makes for easy camouflage in any environment, allowing it to remain close to invisible in covert missions. The drone has insect-like wings that flap to mimic natural movement.
