An innovative design by Motorola's Sensor Products Division in Tempe, Ariz., optimally integrates a surface-micromachined capacitive automotive tire-pressure sensor with a 0.8-µm CMOS double-metal, ...

All-silicon-based clock-oscillator ICs have always been available for applications that don't require high levels of precision. Yet these devices don't meet the tight tolerance requirements many ...

Demonstration of how the stretchable skin might be adhered to a person's arm. The great benefit of rubbery CMOS is that it provides the circuit functionality of conventional CMOS while also being ...

With the advent of quantum computing, the need for peripheral fault-tolerant logic control circuitry has reached new heights. In classical computation, the unit of information is a “1” or “0”. In ...

A new study represents a significant advance in topological transistors and beyond-CMOS electronics. First time that the topological state in a topological insulator has been switched on and off using ...

Invisible to our eyes, shortwave infrared (SWIR) light can enable unprecedented reliability, function and performance in high-volume, computer vision first applications in service robotics, automotive ...

October 16, 2012 — The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) announced today the selection of the Nanoelectronics Research Initiative (NRI), a collaboration of several key firms in the ...

Researchers have demonstrated that ultra-short pulses of light, down to 34 millionths of a billionth of a second, elicit the same response as continuous illumination. The experiment harnessed ...
