Researchers propose a CMOS pixel architecture improving simulated near-infrared sensitivity. FDTD modelling reaches 0.94 optical efficiency at 1000nm without increasing silicon thickness.
Zhen Ding and NTHU advance smart PCB manufacturing research together. Five projects address process optimisation, logistics, supply resilience, materials risk, and AI-enabled production management.
Molex has invested in CAEPlus to advance active liquid cooling. BoundaryCool targets increasing processor heat loads in AI and high-performance computing infrastructure.
TTM Technologies has agreed a $1.1 billion Epiq Solutions acquisition. The transaction extends its manufacturing portfolio into software-defined radios, embedded computing, and space electronics.
India has approved 31 additional electronics manufacturing projects across states. The package expands domestic production across components, materials, sub-assemblies, and manufacturing equipment.
Space Forge has selected Texas A&M for US semiconductor manufacturing. Initial work will combine material growth, processing, and characterisation before the collaboration expands into further joint research.
Avnet Silica says semiconductor growth is tightening component availability again. Its Q3 Trendliner identifies allocation, rising lead times, and greater planning risk across several component classes.
SBF has commercialised two automation systems developed inside electronics production. ALF automates industrial labelling, while INSPECT handles optical quality checks after SMD assembly.
