Weltrend has launched an integrated controller for compact BLDC motors. The STL8300 combines an 8051 core, three-phase gate drive, analogue functions, protection, and closed-loop motor control in a 6 × 6mm QFN package.
Micas is expanding Malaysian manufacturing for commercial co-packaged optics systems. The capacity increase covers optical integration, assembly, testing, and clean-room production.
Melexis has started local Chinese IC production with MLX91241 sensor. The 250kHz Hall device targets traction inverters and power-conversion systems.
Heron Power has secured $60m to support manufacturing scale-up plans. The facility adds debt financing as its 286,000ft² California factory moves towards late-2027 medium-voltage power-electronics production.
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.
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.
