Austin, Texas (September 19, 2017) – Octavo Systems LLC (Octavo) announced the production release and immediate availability of its highly anticipated OSD335x-SM System-In-Package (SiP) device.  The OSD335x-SM, like the entire OSD335x family, integrates the Texas Instruments (TI) Sitara™ AM335x processor with an ARM® Cortex®-A8 core running at 1GHz, DDR3 memory, a TPS65217C power management IC (PMIC), […]

Terahertz Electronics – Way To Bridge The largely-untapped Region Between 100GHz and 10THz


https://www.electronics-lab.com/terahertz-electronics-way-bridge-largely-untapped-region-100ghz-10thz/

The terahertz (THz) region, which is based on 1THz frequency, separates electronics from photonics and has been difficult to access for ages. Semiconductor electronics cannot handle frequencies equal to or greater than 100GHz due to various transport-time related limitations. In other hand, photonics devices fail to work below 10THz as photon’s energy significantly drops to thermal energy. Terahertz […]

LimeSDR Mini – Software-defined-radio card


https://www.electronics-lab.com/limesdr-mini-software-defined-radio-card/

An open, full-duplex, USB stick radio for femtocells and more. The LimeSDR and LimeSDR Mini are members of the same family of software-defined radios. One does not replace the other. Rather, they are complementary. Simply put, the LimeSDR Mini is a smaller, less expensive version of the original LimeSDR. However, it still packs a punch […]

New Ultrathin Semiconductors Can Make More Efficient and Ten Times Smaller Transistors Than Silicon


https://www.electronics-lab.com/new-ultrathin-semiconductors-can-make-efficient-ten-times-smaller-transistors-silicon/

The researchers at Stanford University have discovered two ultrathin semiconductors – hafnium diselenide and zirconium diselenide. They share or even exceed some of the very important characteristics of silicon. Silicon has a great property of forming “rust” or silicon dioxide (SiO2) by reacting with oxygen. As the SiO2 acts as an insulator, chip manufacturers implement this property […]

Researchers Developed VO2 Based MEMS Mirror Actuator That Requires Very Low Power


https://www.electronics-lab.com/researchers-developed-vo2-based-mems-mirror-actuator-requires-low-power/

A joint research by the US Air Force Research Laboratory Sensors Directorate and Michigan State University have developed micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) actuator based on smart materials, specifically vanadium dioxide (VO2). In the room temperature, Vanadium dioxide exhibits the Mott transition. It is a not-well-understood phenomenon known to occur in transition metal chalcogenides and transition metal oxides. The research team […]

SPI Isolation Board


https://www.electronics-lab.com/spi-isolation-board/

The isolated SPI module is designed for applications, where SPI signals need to be transferred over longer distances than usually. It is based on Linear’s LTC6820. The board is designed as two layer stack-up, with GND plane on the bottom layer and signal traces and components at the top layer. Signals and power are supplied […]
