Miniature logic package can be used without a step-down mask
Offering reduced assembly costs and increased reliability, Nexperia has developed a four-pin X2SON4 package. It is claimed to be the smallest logic package that can be used without requiring an expensive and fragile step-down mask. As a result, PCB assembly is quicker, easier, more reliable and more cost-effective, says Nexperia.
Wireless charging kit can lead to reduced form factor for IoT and wearable devices
Compact chargers for IoT and wearable devices can be reduced in size, using the STEval-ISB045V1 wireless battery-charger development kit, says the company. It lets users quickly build compact chargers, up to 2.5W, with a space-saving 20mm-diameter coil, for charging small smartwatches, sports gear, or healthcare equipment.
