Acquiring custom chips usually means dealing with complex negotiations and a large minimum order requirement. wafer.space is a pooled fabrication solution to that. You submit your design through an automated system and, in return, get 1000 identical bare dies or chip-on-board (COB) assemblies (each bonded to a small PCB). The area to design your chip is standard, a slot measuring 3.88 mm × 5.…
Infineon and ROHM have signed an MoU(Memorandum of Understanding) that lets them act as second sources for each other's customers using certain SiC products with applications including electric vehicle on-board chargers, solar photovoltaic systems, energy storage, and AI data centres. This will make both the design and procurement process easier for the customer. The standardisation of…

Traditional analog power supplies struggle to keep up with today’s performance and control accuracy requirements, which have gotten way stricter. Even though digital power supplies work better, they’re just too expensive and use too much power for smaller industrial applications. This makes their use limited. To counter this, ROHM has just announced a new reference design for power supply…
