Vishay Intertechnology Rolls Out SiA433EDJ 20-V P-Channel Power MOSFET
Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (NYSE: VSH) introduced a new 20-V p-channel power MOSFET with the lowest on-resistance ever achieved for a p-channel device in the compact 2-mm by 2-mm footprint area of the thermally enhanced PowerPAK® SC-70. The new SiA433EDJ is the newest product built on TrenchFET® Gen III p-channel technology, which uses self-aligning process techniques to pack one billion transistor cells into each square inch of silicon. This leading-edge technology allows a superfine, sub-micron pitch process that cuts the industry’s best on-resistance for a p-channel MOSFET nearly in half.

Virage Logic STAR Silicon Browser for Post Silicon Bring Up, System Debug
Virage Logic Corporation (NASDAQ:VIRL), the semiconductor industry’s trusted IP partner, announced it has added a new member, STAR[tm] (self test and repair) Silicon Browser, to its flagship STAR[tm] Memory System product family. The STAR Silicon Browser is a powerful solution to increase the efficiency of post silicon bring up, system debug and embedded memory characterization. STAR Silicon Browser provides STAR Memory System users with direct access and interactive communication with the internal circuitry of their System-on-Chip (SoC) memory system, whether it is an internally developed or third-party memory, so they can debug and diagnose system issues more quickly during the chip bring-up process. This enables the system engineer to accelerate system bring-up which is very difficult to accomplish using production ATE equipment.
