NFC tags and transceivers combine for IoT applications
Using STMicroelectronics’ ST25 NFC tag IC for IoT data transmission application, Securitag Assembly Group (SAG) has announced the NFC Ferrite Tag. It is small, light, and thin, and can be surface-mounted during production through the metal pad that can be directly soldered to the PCB surface.
LDS technique shapes up for next-gen wireless antennae
In co-operation with the Institute of High Frequency Technology and Radio Systems (Institut für Hochfrequenztechnik und Funksysteme, HFT) at Leibniz University of Hannover, the LPKF Laser Direct Structuring (LDS) technique is currently being evaluated for suitability for next-generation wireless applications. Early indicators are that LDS technology is applicable for antennae in the millimeter-wave frequency band, e.g. 5G wireless technology or for automotive sensors.
Tri-mode wireless charger meets three wireless charge standards
At the AirFuel Alliance Members Meeting, Semtech has unveiled what it claims is the industry’s first complete and self-contained tri-mode wireless charging transmitter.
