Plessey has developed a 2D planar gallium nitride on silicon (GaN-on-Si) process to emit Green light without the need for color conversion. Instead of applying phosphors or quantum dot conversion materials to native Blue LEDs, Plessey?s native Green LEDs are formed inherently using their GaN-on-Si epitaxial growth process, similar to the native Blue LEDs, with the principal difference coming in the amount of indium that is incorporated in the quantum well structures.

Rohde & Schwarz announced approval for its cellular vehicle-to-everything (C-V2X) protocol conformance testing package, per the Global Certification Forum (GCF). The approval is based on tests executed using the R&S CMW500 wideband radio communication tester and R&S SMBV100A vector signal generator.

CADENCE DESIGN SYSTEMS

Successfully completing challenging SoC designs on time and on budget?with their ever-increasing software contents?requires starting the software-development process as early as possible. FPGA-based prototyping has long been a key technology to achieve that goal.

Maintaining continuous operations is priority-one for any factory. Even a brief power outage can cause major production disruptions. Regardless of location, every factory must have backup generators. However, because these systems are not infallible, factories need predictive analytics to keep operations running smoothly.
