Few companies in the industrial sector have embraced the concept of electrification on a worldwide scale as prodigiously as electrical equipment maker Ingeteam of northern Spain. Addressing multiple technologies to support propulsion, wind and solar energy, and hydrogen power, its products are increasingly spanning the globe. […]
What is EnaChip up to? That’s an important question for design engineers of power electronics systems to ask these days. By coating specialized magnetic alloys directly onto semiconductor substrates — and other innovations, the semiconductor microdevice company is bringing disruptive technology to the forefront as it works to commercialize a breakthrough wafer level magnetic technology platform capable of enabling new classes of electronic products. We asked Trifon Liakopoulos, co-founder and CEO of EnaChip, to bring us up to date. […]
Applied Physical Electronics (APELC) of Austin, Texas, a leading innovator in electromagnetic pulsed power, has contracted with the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Dahlgren Division (NSWCDD) to refurbish and replace the pulsed power components of the Naval Ordnance Transient Electromagnetic Simulator (NOTES). NOTES is a critical bounded wave test facility employed by NSWCDD to assess the vulnerability of U.S. infrastructure against the threat of a high-altitude nuclear electromagnetic pulse, known as HEMP. […]
In the unrelenting global race for air combat superiority, the progressive development and integration of Active Electronically Scanned Array (AESA) radar has become an industry standard for virtually all new fighter jets. Additionally, many older aircraft are being retrofit to incorporate the radars because it provides what Lockheed Martin, whose subsidiary Northrop Grumman is the largest provider of the systems, describes as “first-look, first-shot, first-kill capability.” […]
CorePower Magnetics, building upon soft magnetics technologies invented at Carnegie Mellon University and the National Energy Technology Laboratory, is planning to establish a plant in Pittsburgh to manufacture its signature nanocrystalline magnetic cores and power […]
Sikorsky, a Lockheed Martin company, unveiled on February 27 its plan to build, test and fly a hybrid-electric vertical takeoff and landing demonstrator (HEX / VTOL) with a tilt-wing configuration. The design is the first in a series of large, next generation VTOL aircraft that range from more traditional helicopters to winged configurations. They will feature varying degrees of electrification and an advanced autonomy system for optionally piloted flight. […]
Tokyo-based Minebea Mitsumi and its Yokahama-based subsidiary Ablic are expanding their businesses in power electronics, sensing and precision motion with recent acquisition moves that add more semiconductor capability. Minebea is planning to purchase Hitachi’s power […]
