Microelectronic devices such as computer processors and memory chips almost universally rely on silicon to control electrical currents. However, silicon's poor light-emitting properties have limited its use in photonics applications, and this has hampered progress in the integration of photonics devices with silicon electronics for optical communications on computer chips. Researchers from the A*STAR Institute of Microelectronics in Singapore have now demonstrated a light-detection system on a silicon chip that is capable of processing 320 ...

Partnering to Combine Embedded Passives
By Bruce Mahler, Vice President, Ohmega Technologies, Inc., Culver City, CA
Embedding passive components within PC boards is not a new science; at Ohmega, we've been doing it for 35 years. But the technology has evolved dramatically in that time period, and today's inside-the-board possibilities are more diverse than ever. Ohmega Technologies, Inc. manufactures OhmegaPly®, the U.S. Industry standard for thin film embedded resistive materials for printed circuit boards. Oak-Mitsui, Inc. manufactures FaradFlex®, an embedded capacitive material for printed circuit boards. There have been serious collaborative (partnering) efforts by both companies to develop a recently patented combined embeddable resistor/capacitor layer called Ohmega/Faradflex.

Custom Connector Designs Using FR4 Headers
By Arnold Fletcher
FR4 is an industry-standard glass-filled material that can be used for high-temperature applications. Making connector headers with this material has numerous advantages. Instead of designing special moldings (and incurring the associated tooling costs and lead time) for each connector, the Autosplice approach makes use of standard FR4 as the dielectric insulating material that holds the individual contacts.
