Georgia Tech Workshop Drives Cell Broadband Engine Processor Research
The College of Computing at Georgia Tech announced it will host the Georgia Tech Cell Broadband Engine(TM) (Cell/B.E.) Processor Workshop from June 18-19, 2007, focusing on applications for the Cell/B.E. processor, including gaming, virtual reality, home entertainment, tools and programmability and high performance scientific and technical computing.
International Rectifier Reduces Part Count by 25% with XPhase Chipset
International Rectifier, IR(R) (NYSE:IRF), a world leader in power management technology, expanded the XPhase(R) family of scalable multiphase converter chipsets with the introduction of the IR3500 Control IC and IR3505 Phase IC. The new XPhase chipset provides a full-featured and flexible way to implement a complete Intel(R) or AMD(R) CPU power solution, and with simple six-bit voltage programming, the IR3500 is easily configured for use in general purpose, multiphase applications.
Chipidea Announces New USB PHY Architecture for 1.8V Devices
Chipidea, the world's leading provider of analog/mixed-signal subsystems and intellectual property (IP), introduced a new generation USB physical layer architecture using 1.8V IO devices that offers the industry's lowest power consumption for System-on-Chip (SoC) designs in the 65nm and 45nm advanced technology nodes.
WiMAX World Europe - Final Day
The closing day of WiMAX World Europe's conference program opened with Dr. Mo Shakouri, VP, Corporate Strategy Alvarion, Board Member and Vice President, Marketing for the WiMAX Forum, who provided delegates with a view of the diverse needs of the EMEA market as well as an update on the WiMAX Forum's activities. Dr. Shakouri expressed concern that Western European nations could become laggards in implementation of mobile WiMAX networks if changes to spectrum regulation are not undertaken. He further encouraged vendors and the WiMAX Forum to focus on both the interoperability and delivery of low cost devices.
Physik Instrumente Unveils Nanopositioning Motion Controller
PI (Physik Instrumente) L.P. — a leading manufacturer of nanopositioning and piezo-based precision motion-control equipment for bio-nanotechnology, photonics and semiconductor applications — introduced the new E-755 ultra-high-precision motion controller. The controller is designed to drive NEXLINE(R) linear motor actuators and enables the combination of long travel ranges and picometer resolution.
ADLINK Introduces Analog Output Multi-Function DAQ Cards
ADLINK introduces their new DAQe-2500 series of high-speed and high-performance analog output multi-function data acquisition cards based on the high-bandwidth PCI Express(R) bus. These new cards can update up to 8-CH 12-bit analog outputs simultaneously at a sustained rate of 1 MS/s. This series also features a hardware-based arbitrary waveform generation which frees up CPU resources for optimal system efficiency, even when all analog outputs are updating at full speed.
