OMRON has introduced high-voltage SiC relays for demanding switching applications. The G3VH range targets industrial drives, renewables, storage, and semiconductor test.
Keysight and WIN have linked GaN MMIC design workflows tightly. The environment joins simulation, layout verification, and evaluation-board optimisation before tapeout.
SiTime has launched Chorus 2 timing devices for compute systems. The programmable clocks target AI clusters, networking, smart-factory vision, and heterogeneous boards.
Kyocera AVX has launched traction-grade capacitors for high-voltage converter platforms. The FFLK series targets EV traction, drives, and DC-link filtering.
SK keyfoundry has integrated EMC protection into automotive semiconductor designs. The Bi-SCR technology targets PMICs, motor drivers, and power-control ICs.
Analogue test hardware is gaining more realistic simulation capability now. Pickering has added PXI and PXIe modules for waveform generation, DAC outputs, thermocouple simulation, functional test, and HIL.
Power IC integration is moving further onto engineered substrates now. Soitec and ZenSemi will scale 300mm BCD-on-SOI production for AI, EV, robotics, storage, and industrial systems.
Vishay has introduced high-isolation optocouplers for 800V electric vehicle systems. VOLA617A targets chargers, converters, battery management, and industrial automation.
Microchip has introduced a radiation-tolerant clock generator for spacecraft systems. The DSA504RT provides six programmable outputs for low-jitter aerospace and defence timing.
Infineon’s 100V CoolGaN devices will power BRC Solar panel optimisers. The devices support compact module-level MPPT for rooftop photovoltaic systems.
