Battery shredding equipment reduces UK environmental impact
The first fully functioning battery recycling plant in Scotland which can handle up to 12000 tonnes of battery waste every year, is extending its dismantling lines to prepare for the disassembly of an increasing number of electric vehicle (EV) batteries (Li-Ion), as the uptake of electric vehicles increases across the UK.
Multiphase PMICs have high efficiency and small footprint
Renesas Electronics has announced three programmable power management ICs (PMICs) that offer the highest power efficiency and smallest footprint for application processors in smartphones and tablets: the ISL91302B, ISL91301A, and ISL91301B PMICs. The PMICs also deliver power to artificial intelligence (AI) processors, FPGAs, and industrial microprocessors (MPUs), and they are suitable for powering the supply rails in solid-state drives (SSDs), op...
Industrial computer platform expanded with more computing power
A number of new models have been added to HARTING’s industrial computer product to further its development into a universal modular platform to capture data, process it at the machine level, and exchange it in wireless and wired fashion.

Offering a wide selection of power handling capability from 50W up to 600W, traction battery voltages of 24, 36, 48, 72 & 110VDC are covered by the 50W, 110 VDC by the 100W, and 72 & 110VDC by the 300W and 600W converters.
Introducing a new series of power modules from ON Semi
In this video, ON Semiconductor will introduce new power modules - Q0 and Q2 series for solar inverters rated up to over 100kVA.
Laser diodes for material processing & laser cutting applications
The low noise LD15CHA, the newest addition to the Wavelength laser diode driver line, offers modulation bandwidth, and power for materials processing, industrial laser cutting, and laser diode bars / stacks. The small laser diode driver delivers 15A output current up to 28V. It meets laser compliance requirements from 3V with a single 5V supply, and up to 28V with an additional 30V power supply.
How to improve tab to terminal connections in battery packs
Battery packs have become an integral part of everyday life, powering a growing range of portable electronic devices, cordless power tools, energy storage, and hybrid and electric vehicles. By Geoff Shannon, Amada Miyachi America.
Power amplifier designed for live sound and concerts
As transducer technology evolves, new speakers are capable of increasingly higher power handling. Increasing the power to the speaker enables higher SPL output and extended low frequency bass output in cabinets that are lighter and more compact than ever before.
Automotive-grade TVS diode arrays ensure maximum reliability
Littelfuse has introduced two series of AEC-Q101-qualified TVS Diode Arrays (SPA Diodes) designed to provide options for very fast acting, high performance over-voltage protection devices. The AQHV and AQHV-C series are designed to provide very fast acting, high performance over-voltage protection devices well suited for power interfaces, passenger charging interfaces, and well as LED lighting modules, and low speed I/Os.
