Co-packaged SiC MOSFETs offer switching speeds as low as 67 ns
SemiQ Inc has announced a family of co-packaged 1200 V SOT-227 MOSFET modules based on its third-generation SiC technology. In addition to smaller die sizes, third-generation SIC devices offer faster switching speeds and reduced losses. The family of highly rugged and easy mount devices currently offers six devices with an RDSon range of 8.4 to 39 […]
Wearable bioelectronic skin patches are a busy research area: part 1
Biomedical skin patches that integrate multiple disciplines for sensing, power, and reporting are receiving significant R&D effort. Passive, chemical-only, wearable skin patches for medical applications are not new — they have been used for many years to deliver prescription medications that provide pain and nicotine relief. However, more sophisticated biometric wearable patch development and evaluation […]
