We caught up with Analog Devices at Embedded World 2024 as part of our promotional coverage for the event. Fiona Treacy – Managing Director of Industrial Automation at Analog Devices – discusses creating energy-efficient production environments for a more sustainable future. She covers, for example, digitizing, connecting, and interpreting data from the factory floor in real-time and how this unlocks ...
DigiKey is launching Series 3 of a video sequence entitled ‘Farm Different’, which explores agri-tech. The series features three episodes that look into the future of farming to determine what innovations will power the next generation of global food production. For example, how robotics and autonomous vehicles are coming to the farm and also the integral data necessary to maximize ...
Located close to Limerick, ADI’s Catalyst R&D centre has a series of ‘living labs’ and on-site R&D engineers dedicated to the collaborative development and prototyping of products. By Caroline Hayes. As Europe’s second largest semiconductor producer, ADI has considerable R&D experience. It officially opened the €100m (~$108m/£85.3m) Catalyst R&D facility in Limerick, Ireland, in March 2022. After 18 months of ...
Analog Devices has created a stand-alone 100V half-bridge driver for GaN power hemts “with a propagation delay of 10ns and delay matching of 1.5ns between the top and bottom channels, making it suitable for high-frequency dc-dc converters, motor drivers and class-D audio amplifiers”, according to the company. Called LT8418, this IC looks very much like the output stage used within ...
EPC has created a GaN transistor dc-dc converter demo board that converts an input between 36 and 60V to a regulated 13V 16A output. Called EPC9195, it is a synchronous buck converter built around a pair of 2.5 x 1.5mm EPC2619 GaN hemts, and an LTC7891 controller IC from Analogue Devices. “48V input is getting popular due to USB PD ...
Analog Devices will have a new CFO from 05 February: Richard Puccio, who will also be an executive v-p and report to CEO and chair Vincent Roche. “We welcome Rich’s business acumen to enable ADI to accelerate the effectiveness of our operations,” said Roche. “I would also like to thank Jim Mollica for his partnership and contribution as interim CFO, ...
ADIThe judges liked the wireless battery management system, describing it as an innovative product with a number of advantages over traditional, wired solutions. One judge noted: “In order to support… green initiatives… more products like this are needed to improve the performance and range of EVs.” Shortlist * Ambarella – centrally processed 4D imaging radar architecture for autonomous mobility systems ...
Analog Devices has released some details of a 10GHz bandwidth analogue front-end, possibly to be revealed in full at IMS in San Diego this week. The 16nm CMOS device is said to have four 12bit 20Gsample/s ADCs and four 16bit 28Gsample/s DACs – and seems like a faster cousin of the 28nm AD9081 released a few years ago – if ...
Michael Clifford, Roman Trogan and Matthew Hayes say synthetic biology is a reality and explain how a bio-tech startup is working with a seasoned silicon provider to make DNA synthesis universally available. What if we could combine physics with biology and rapidly develop new and affordable, individualised medications on the surface of a silicon chip for the treatment of cancer, ...
Analog Devices has created a pair of 6A buck-boost converters for automotive use. “MAX25239 and MAX25240 small-footprint 2V to 36V converters are the industry’s only 6A automotive buck-boost with integrated H-bridge switches,” according to distributor Farnell, which is stocking the parts. “They provide a fixed-output regulation voltage and an externally adjustable output voltage from 3V to 20V.” The ‘and’ in ...
