Vishay has launched flat-clamping TVS devices for high-power protection circuits. XFD11KxxCA spans 33V-to-85V stand-off ratings with AEC-Q101 options for automotive, industrial, server, storage, and telecom power systems.
ROHM has raised 0402 resistor power density to 0.33W operation. The SDR01 series combines higher power handling with anti-surge performance for dense automotive, industrial, consumer, and AI-server electronics.
South Korea is widening espionage law around foreign technology theft. The revised Criminal Act takes effect on 13 September as semiconductor know-how becomes an increasingly prominent industrial-security concern.
Vicor is acquiring two New Hampshire sites for ChiP fabs. Fab-2 and Fab-3 could add nearly one million square feet as its existing Andover power-module operation approaches capacity.
Singular Photonics has launched Litavis, a programmable multimodal SPAD sensor. The Edinburgh-developed device combines photon counting, timing, histogramming, and statistics on-chip while reducing external processing requirements.
Keysight has joined EuroCDP to widen European startup EDA access. The agreement brings RF, electromagnetic, high-speed digital, device-modelling, training, and design-data tools into the Chips Act-backed platform.
Taiyo Holdings has demonstrated 700nm RDL features on 300mm wafers. The three-layer structure uses its FPIM photosensitive dielectric for dual-damascene processing, with both interconnects and vias reaching the target dimension.
