  【Lansheng Technology Information】The  Intel  supercomputer Aurora has been installed at the Aragon National Laboratory. It can provide FP64 computing power of 2 Exaflops and will become the world's first supercomputer with 20 billion billion calculations per second. Intel  revealed that the Aurora supercomputer will be equipped with a total of 10,624 nodes, including 21,248 Xeon CPUs based on the Sapphire Rapids-SP series and 63,744 GPUs based on the Ponte Vecchio design. The system will be a beast with an insane fabric interconnect, delivering 2.12 PB/s of peak injected bandwidth and 0.69 PB/s of peak bisected bandwidth. In terms of memory, the Aurora supercomputer is equipped with 10.9 PB DDR5 system DRAM, CPU 1.36 PB HBM capacity, and GPU 8.16 PB HBM capacity. The peak bandwidth of system DRAM is 5.95 PB/s, the peak bandwidth of CPU HBM is 30.5 PB/s, and the peak bandwidth of GPU HBM is 208.9 PB/s. In terms of storage, the system is equipped with 230 PB of DAOS capacity, runni

Allegro MicroSystems Introduces First ASIL C Safety-Rated Magnetic Field Current Sensor for Electric Vehicle Powertrains

Image
  【Lansheng Technology Information】For today's and next-generation inverter and battery management system designs, engineers are faced with huge challenges and need to achieve higher safety goals according to the new Automotive Safety Integrity Level (ASIL) requirements. To enable customers to meet these new safety requirements while improving system efficiency and extending battery life,  Allegro  has developed the ACS37601 programmable linear Hall-effect current sensor IC with over-current, over-temperature protection, and self-test functions. The ACS37601 design goal is to achieve high-precision and high-resolution sensing without compromising bandwidth. It is Allegro's highest-precision magnetic field current sensor and is suitable for applications where the measurement current is greater than 200A. " Allegro's  ACS37601 enables applications such as our BMS and electric vehicle traction inverter current sensors to meet the functional safety and accuracy requirement

Microchip Expands Portfolio of Safety-Authenticated ICs

Image
  【Lansheng Technology Information】 Microchip Technology Inc.  announced on March 15, 2023 that it has expanded its security certification product line and launched six new products in the CryptoAutomotive™ IC series. These products comply with Common Criteria Joint Interpretation Library (JIL) high-rated secure key storage and support Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS)-compliant certified algorithms. This portfolio of secure and authenticated devices lowers the barrier to entry, enabling product developers targeting new market segments and applications to implement trusted authentication to prevent counterfeiting, improve quality control and safeguard the user experience. With the prevalence of counterfeit products across many industries, the need to implement embedded trust in many designs has become critical. These devices are supported by the Trust Platform Design Suite. This is a dedicated software tool used to interface IC products with Microchip's secure key prov

Toshiba Launches Thermoflagger, a Simple Solution for Detecting Temperature Rise in Electronic Devices

Image
  【Lansheng Technology Information】 May 16, 2023 -  Toshiba  announced today that it has launched the first two products of the over-temperature detection IC ThermoflaggerTM series: "TCTH021BE" When an abnormal state is detected, the FLAG signal does not have a latch function, " TCTH022BE"FLAG signal detection with latch function. They utilize positive temperature coefficient (PTC) thermistors to detect temperature rise inside electronic devices in a simple circuit configuration. The product supports volume shipments starting today. In order for an electronic device to function as specified, its semiconductors and electronic components must operate within design parameters. Temperature is a critical parameter, especially when the internal temperature is higher than assumed for design. This can be a major concern in terms of safety and reliability, so an over-temperature monitoring solution is required to detect any temperature rise. Toshiba's  new ThermoflaggerT

ON Semiconductor and Magna Sign Strategic Partnership Agreement to Invest in Silicon Carbide Production to Meet Growing Electric Vehicle Market Demand

MaxLinear Terminates Acquisition of Silicon Motion

Image
  【Lansheng Technology Information】U.S. chipmaker  MaxLinear  said it ended its attempt to acquire Silicon Motion, closing a $3.8 billion cash-and-stock deal. Industry insiders believe that the change in the case of  MaxLinear’s  acquisition of Viro is quite dramatic. It is speculated that MaxLinear’s move is mainly to force Viro to return to the negotiating table and renegotiate the price to ease the financial burden. However, the latest report issued by foreign investors in the United States explains that although there are many third-party NAND controller IC suppliers, Silicon Motion Technology occupies 50%~55% of the global and Chinese mainland NAND controller third-party market share, plus quality, process, and efficiency. And cost advantages, occupying a dominant position in the NAND controller integrated circuit market, so this transaction also makes Chinese mainland regulators quite worried. Therefore, the State Administration for Market Regulation in mainland China requires bo
