(Logo:...
MILPITAS, Calif., Aug. 24 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- California Micro Devices (Nasdaq: CAMD) today announced the CM1457 family of inductor based electromagnetic interference (EMI) filters for mobile handsets. With traditional filter architectures, there is a tradeoff between low levels of capacitance -- which are necessary to achieve higher cutoff frequencies -- and reduced levels of filter attenuation. The CM1457, based on the advanced Praetorian III inductor based filter architecture,...
MILPITAS, Calif., Aug. 18 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- California Micro Devices (Nasdaq: CAMD) today announced the PicoGuard CM6100, a low capacitance electrostatic discharge (ESD) device providing two channels of 15 kV protection for USB 2.0 Hi-Speed interfaces and for LVDS (low voltage differential signal) and emerging serial interfaces such as MIPI(R) (Mobile Industry Processor Interface) used in handsets and other mobile devices. The CM6100 is based on CMD's PicoGuard line of ESD...
Since its discovery just a few years ago, graphene has climbed to the top of the heap of new super-materials poised to transform the electronics and nanotechnology landscape. As N.J. Tao, a researcher at the Biodesign Institute of Arizona State University explains, this two-dimensional honeycomb structure of carbon atoms is exceptionally strong and versatile. Its unusual properties make it ideal for applications that are pushing the existing limits of microchips, chemical sensing instruments,...
SANTA CLARA, Calif., June 1 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- California Micro Devices (Nasdaq: CAMD) announced that Sharp Electronics Corporation has selected its CM1234 low capacitance electrostatic discharge (ESD) solution to protect multiple HDMI(TM) video ports in eleven new Sharp Aquos series liquid crystal display (LCD) TVs. The CM1234 design wins include six models of the Aquos E series full HD LCD TVs and five models of the Aquos BD series LCD TVs. Designed for the US market, all the...
Technology Package Delivers 5 Percent Lower k-effective Without Complex Material Changes SAN JOSE, Calif., March 18 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- In order for device performance to keep pace with Moore's Law, integrated circuit designers have had to drive node-to-node reductions in interconnect-related RC delay. Achieving this performance scaling has become increasingly challenging as interconnect spacing has decreased below 45nm. Over the past several years, researchers have studied...
