Keysight Technologies, Inc. announced today a new measurement platform that ensures consistent, repeatable results across all phases of design. The new Keysight Streamline Series is comprised of compact USB instruments: vector network analyzers (VNAs), oscilloscopes and an arbitrary waveform generator (AWG) that leverage trusted Keysight technologies, measurement algorithms, and application software.

Picotest.com has released the PerfectPulse signal generator, designed to be a low cost, pocket-sized, fast edge signal generator and TDR in one package. Picotest reports that this type of high-speedTDR/TDT has never been available in this portable form, requiring only a USB power source, and at this price point.

Dialog Semiconductor plc, a provider of highly integrated power management, AC/DC power conversion, charging, and Bluetooth^® low energy technology, today unveiled the DA7280, a new Haptic Driver Integrated Circuit (IC).

Richardson RFPD, Inc. announced today the availability and full design support capabilities for a new evaluation board from GaN Systems Inc. and pSemi Corporation.

The key benefits of gallium nitride (GaN) are, amongst others, high power density, best-in-class efficiency and decreased system costs. Infineon Technologies AG is starting volume production for CoolGaN™ products by the end of 2018, the company announced during PCIM Europe.

At this week’s 2018 IEEE International Interconnect Technology Conference (IITC 2018), imec, will present 11 papers on advanced interconnects, ranging from extending Cu and Co damascene metallization, all the way to evaluating new alternatives such as Ru and graphene.

With the MAX22505 ±40V high-speed USB fault protector from Maxim Integrated Products, Inc., designers can now eliminate USB port damage from all faults, including ground potential differences, up to ±40V without the tradeoffs required by competing solutions. It protects data and power lines from industrial equipment powered at 24V_AC and 40V_DC, while also reducing solution size by more than 50% for industrial voltage applications.

Artech House today announced the publication of Intersystem EMC Analysis, Interference, and Solutions by recognized expert Uri Vered. This comprehensive new resource provides methods and tools for defining EMC requirements and techniques for performing predictions and calculations to achieve electromagnetic compatibility.

Automotive designers can significantly lower EMI and increase efficiency with the pin-compatible MAX20073 and MAX20074 buck converters from Maxim Integrated Products, Inc. The compact converters, which offer one of the lowest EMI performance for low-voltage point-of-load applications, which are ideal for automotive infotainment and ADAS applications.

TDK Corporation announced that today TDK acquired Faraday Semi LLC, a U.S.-based venture-backed company engaged in the design of advanced power semiconductor ICs. Faraday Semi is now a wholly owned subsidiary of TDK.
