After recharging, the boat returned to the Spanish mainland in the same day.

Beneath the surface are two hydrofoils - underwater wings - to power the C-8 and lift it above the water, reducing drag and cutting energy consumption by 80% compared with conventional vessels. This milestone enables the long electric range required to cross the Strait of Gibraltar - one of the world’s busiest shipping lanes - for the first time.

Waldom Electronics at EDS Leadership Summit 2025 Waldom Electronics operates exclusively as a master distributor of electronic components. According to Raley, its core mission is to optimise inventory usage across the supply chain. The company manages surplus stock from both suppliers and distributors, ensuring it is reallocated for use rather than being scrapped. This, in turn, supports sustainability and reduces waste.

A key differentiator, said Raley, is Waldom’s ability to hold a substantial breadth of inventory which it resells to a network of more than 2,500 distributor partners. Unlike traditional distribution models that rely on rapid stock turnover, Waldom specialises in long-tail excess inventory and can hold components for extended periods until demand returns, extracting value for suppliers in the process.

Get prepared for Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) compliance In less than three years’ time, all products shipped to the EEA (European Economic Area) will have to be CRA-compliant, as a legal pre-condition of bearing the CE mark. The EU Cyber Resilience Act came into force in December 2024, extending the CE marking scheme by mandating that, from December 2027, all products with digital elements that can be connected to a device or network must adhere to a strict set of rules in their design, documentation, and support before claiming conformance.

Over the past 30 years, Direct Insight has trained thousands of engineers on a diverse range of topics in electronics and embedded systems design and development, including VHDL, FPGA design, and cyber security, reflecting the breadth of expertise of its staff. The company is currently rolling out training to assist its customers in adopting the provisions of the CRA (Cyber Resilience Act).

Nord Quantique develops bosonic qubit technology This milestone outlines a path to a major reduction in the number of qubits needed for quantum error correction (QEC). The result is an approach to quantum computing which will provide smaller yet more powerful systems that consume a fraction of the energy. These smaller systems are also simpler to develop to utility-scale due to their size and lower requirements for cryogenics and control electronics.

To carry out this demonstration, the company has implemented an advanced bosonic code known as Tesseract code. This provides the system protection against many common types of errors including bit flips, phase flips, and control errors. Another key advantage over single-mode encoding is that leakage errors, which remove the qubit from the encoding space, can now be detected.

Women face a greater risk of disruption from AI The report revealed that 9.6% of female-dominated roles were likely to be significantly affected by AI, compared with only 3.5% of male-dominated occupations. The disparity stemmed largely from AI’s growing role in administrative functions and clerical tasks, including secretarial and office support roles – areas where women remain overrepresented.

While the report acknowledged that AI was unlikely to result in the wholesale replacement of occupations, it warned of widespread transformation within many roles. Tasks within affected jobs may shift substantially as AI becomes capable of performing a broader range of cognitive functions.

Top 10 design rules for flex and rigid-flex PCBs However, designing flex and rigid-flex PCBs requires more than just copying rigid board techniques. It demands a deep understanding of mechanical stresses, material properties, and manufacturability. To help you succeed, here are CEE PCB’s Top 10 design rules for flex and rigid-flex PCB success.

1. Define flex and rigid areas

Start by clearly distinguishing which areas of the board will be flexible and which will be rigid. This will affect material selection, stack-up design, bend reliability, and component placement. Early planning reduces the need for costly redesigns later. Rigid areas can be just mechanical stiffeners or traditional FR4 material that include areas with standard PTHs (Plated Thru Holes).

World-first theatre performance using photonic network The performances occurred on May 24th and May 25th utilising the world's first International IOWN APN, activated by NTT and Chunghwa Telecom Co., Ltd. (Chunghwa Telecom) in August 2024.

‘CHO KABUKI Powered by IOWN’ tells the story of Princess Miku (performed by Hatsune Miku) and Tadanobu (performed by Shidō Nakamura), who battle the Azure Dragon while traveling through the legendary Thousand Cherry Blossoms that span from the Age of Gods to the present day. Through the IOWN APN, the movements of performers in Taiwan were transmitted in real time to Japan, where they were synchronised with performers at the Osaka Expo site to create a unified production – as if the distant performers were sharing the same stage in-person.

ABLIC launches voltage monitoring ICs The S-82F9 Series and S-82D9 Series are voltage monitoring ICs for simple remain battery power displays with 5 LED or 4 LED indicators. These solutions achieve monitoring of multiple voltages on a single IC which contributes to saving space, and can also carry out voltage monitoring of batteries at low power consumption because they can be operated without a microcontroller.

Typically, when lighting up LEDs for use as a residual power display in power tools and other applications, functions are used where components are combined discretely or are equipped with a microcontroller, etc. However, these solutions have disadvantages including that when components are combined discretely, it increases the number of components, requiring more space on the board, and if a microcontroller is used, it increases the amount of current consumption.

Rutronik adds Nordic's nPM2100 to range The PMIC was designed for highly efficient energy regulation for primary cell applications. The 150 nA IQ internal boost regulator is capable of delivering output voltages from 1.8 to 3.3V from input voltages of 0.7 to 3.4V. Target applications include almost all out-of-the-box products that can be used immediately without charging, such as wearables and smart home sensors.

According to a survey by the European Commission's information service for research and development (CORDIS), around 28 billion primary batteries are currently thrown away every year. The production of this type of battery requires on average 50 times the energy it can store, without the entire stored energy of the cell ever being used. The nPM2100 power management IC (PMIC) significantly extends the service life of primary cells and the products equipped with them, therefore helping to reduce battery waste.

TI teams with NVIDIA to power AI infrastructure The new power architecture paves the way for more scalable and reliable next-generation AI data centres.

With the growth of AI, the power required per data centre rack is predicted to increase from 100kW today to more than 1MW in the near future. To power a 1MW rack, today’s 48V distribution system would require almost 450lbs of copper, making it physically impossible for a 48V system to scale power delivery to support computing needs in the long term.

Bioinspired robotic dog for land and water operations The study, published in IOP Publishing’s Bioinspiration and Biomimetics, drew its primary inspiration from the swimming motion of mammals – particularly dogs – rather than the traditional reliance on reptiles or insects.

Unlike previous amphibious robots that often suffer from limitations in agility, dynamics, and load-bearing capacity, this latest model replicates the dog’s paddling gait to allow for natural and efficient movement across different terrains. The result is a machine that transitions more effectively between land and aquatic environments.

ROHM develops compact surface-mount near-infrared LEDs The demand for advanced sensing technologies utilising near-infrared (NIR) has grown in recent years, particularly in VR/AR equipment and biosensing devices. These technologies are used in applications such as eye tracking, iris recognition, and blood flow/oxygen saturation measurements that require high accuracy. At the same time, miniaturisation, energy efficiency, and design flexibility are becoming increasingly important. In industrial equipment, near-infrared LEDs are playing a greater role with the rise of precise printer control and automation systems. In response, ROHM is expanding customer options by developing a lineup of compact packages and wavelengths that offer greater design flexibility, while contributing to higher precision and power savings by achieving high radiant intensity.

The new lineup consists of six models in three package configurations, including two ultra-compact (1.0 × 0.6mm), ultra-thin (t=0.2mm) products as part of the PICOLED series: SML-P14RW and SML-P14R3W.  In addition, there are four variants in the industry-standard (1.6 × 0.8mm) size, featuring a narrow beam circular lens package (CSL0902RT, CSL0902R3T) and flat lens design that emits light over a wide range (CSL1002RT, CSL1002R3T). Each package is available in two wavelengths, 850nm (860nm for the SML-P14RW) and 940nm, allowing customers various options for their specific application needs. The 850nm wavelength is ideal for phototransistors and camera sensors, making it suitable for high-sensitivity applications such as eye tracking and object detection in VR/AR. At the same time, the 940nm wavelength is less affected by sunlight and does not appear red when emitting light, making it suitable for motion sensors. It is also widely used in biosensing applications such as pulse oximeters to measure blood flow and oxygen saturation (SpO2).

Pulsar: the mass-market neuromorphic microcontroller for the sensor Edge With sensors embedded in everything from wearables and smart homes to cars and industrial systems, the need for real-time, secure, energy-efficient data processing at the Edge has never been greater. Pulsar tackles this challenge head-on by processing data locally and intelligently, at the sensor level – eliminating the need to rely on brute-force compute in power-hungry Edge processors or data centres to make sense of sensor data.

“Pulsar is not just another AI chip – it represents a fundamental shift in how we bring intelligence to the Edge,” says Sumeet Kumar, Co-Founder and CEO of Innatera. “This launch is the culmination of over a decade of deep research and engineering in neuromorphic computing, combined with a groundbreaking heterogeneous architecture. It marks the moment that our brain-inspired technology becomes ready for mass-market deployment. As demand for real-time, power-efficient intelligence in Edge devices continues to grow, Pulsar delivers the capabilities that traditional AI hardware simply can’t – ultra-low latency, minimal power draw, and on-device decision-making. More importantly, it lays the foundation for a new class of intelligent systems that are adaptive, autonomous, and scalable. Pulsar is our first major step toward making that future a reality.”

Vishay launches 80V MOSFET with 0.88mΩ RDS(ON) With on-resistance down to 0.88mΩ typical at 10V, the device minimises power losses from conduction to increase efficiency while improving thermal performance with a low maximum RthJC of 0.36°C/W. With its 8 x 8mm footprint, the space-saving device occupies 50% less PCB space than MOSFETs in the TO-263 package while offering an ultra-low profile of 1mm.

The SiEH4800EW implements a fused lead to increase the source PAD solderable area to 3.35mm², which is four times larger than a traditional PIN solder area. This decreases the current density between the MOSFET and PCB, reducing the risk of electro-migration risk and enabling a more robust design. In addition, the device's wettable flanks enhance solderability while making it easier to visually inspect the reliability of solder joints.

MPs briefed in Parliament on key electric vehicle challenges Just one week after holding a driver-focused event in Parliament, EVA England’s Charge up Change toolkit aims to tackle the misinformation surrounding EVs and address concerns that recent EV policy has failed to grasp what real world drivers feel is and is not currently working  – both for petrol and diesel drivers considering the switch but facing high upfront costs, and current EV drivers grappling high charging costs and even access to home and public charging points across the UK.

The toolkit launch follows a special drop-in event hosted in Parliament last week by Perran Moon MP, where EVA England and a host of its members – all EV drivers – briefed MPs on the benefits of owning an EV and the biggest barriers facing consumers. The event highlighted the increasingly urgent need for demand-side policy action to support consumers to match the Government’s recent steps to support industry, such as through its recent changes to the Zero Emission Vehicle (ZEV) Mandate that is guiding EV manufacturers through the transition, towards the confirmed 2030 phase-out date for new petrol and diesel cars.

Discovery of intercrystals with unique properties Intercrystals exhibit newly discovered forms of electronic properties that could be essential for advancements in more efficient electronic components, quantum computing, and environmentally friendly materials.

As detailed in a report published in Nature Materials, the scientists stacked two ultra-thin layers of graphene, each layer one-atom-thick sheet of carbon atoms arranged in a hexagonal grid. They then twisted them atop a layer of hexagonal boron nitride, a hexagonal crystal made up of boron and nitrogen. A subtle misalignment between the layers formed moiré patterns – patterns similar to those seen when two fine mesh screens are overlaid – and significantly altered how electrons moved through the material.

iC-Haus presents newest addition to image sensors The newest member, the iC-LFMB, is an optical linear image sensor that meets the high demands of industrial applications. It is aimed at developers who are looking for a high-performance and easy-to-integrate solution.

One of its notable features is the increased photosensitive area of its photo pixels, each measuring 56 µm × 600 µm. This new pixel geometry provides significantly higher contrast and signal yield in low light conditions. The latter also enables shorter measurement times. At the same time, the increased height of the pixels allows larger position tolerances during installation by compensating for lateral offset or slight rotation. This greatly simplifies the installation process without compromising measurement accuracy.

Two new series of connector backshells from Weald Weald Electronics’ LMA 69H1 backshells deliver secure strain relief to cables via an adjustable cable clamp. They are compatible with MIL-DTL-38999 Series III (Souriau 8D Series) connectors with rear accessory threads and can be specified with the same plating finishes. LMA 69H1 Series backshells metalwork is machined from solid material rather than cast, providing optimum levels of strength and in-service reliability.

While the connector interface includes an O-ring seal, this series of backshells does not provide additional environmental protection to the connector and cable and are designed to be used without heat shrink boots over the connector-to-cable transition. For EMC screen termination variants, the LMA19 Series is available, for ultra-low-profile style, consider the LMA67 Series and for heat shrink boot backshells select the LMA79 Series.

sureCore extends its sureFIT design service Paul Wells, CEO at sureCore, explains: “AI can be a daunting new challenge for many chip developers. Because of the computational intensity AI chip designers need to pay special attention to power consumption. They can no longer make do with standard memory solutions and must innovate at the memory sub-system level in order to deliver lower and lower power targets. Our sureFIT design service is ideal for AI applications. We are excited that we can offer our many years of expertise designing for high performance, low power and low voltage memory to help AI customers.”

The sureFIT design service allows bespoke memory solutions to be created that are tailored to meet specific application needs. Recently, the sureCore team has been working with cutting-edge companies developing both server-AI and Edge-AI system-on-chips. In both cases the underlying memory architecture is increasingly being seen as a critical factor in delivering a competitive solution. Raw performance or ultra-low voltage operation will help move the dial respectively in the server or Edge spaces. However, to achieve the step change needed to really stand out from the crowd involves crafting a bespoke memory sub-system architecture including in-memory compute capabilities. This will reduce data traffic to and from the processor thereby increasing the efficiency of model execution.

Ultra-compact DFN8x8 packaged 650V SiC MOSFETs An important characteristic of Toshiba’s next-generation process is the consistently low drain-source on-resistance (RDS(ON)) temperature coefficient of the devices. The low RDS(ON) x gate-drain charge (Qgd) figure of merit (FoM), therefore, enables engineers to enhance the power density and efficiency of numerous high-voltage applications, including switched-mode power supplies (SMPSs), electric vehicle (EV) charging stations, uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), and photovoltaic (PV) inverters.

The surface-mount DFN8x8 package reduces volume by more than 90% compared to existing lead-inserted packages, such as TO-247 and TO-247-4L(X), improving the power density of equipment while enabling automated assembly. Surface mounting also reduces parasitic impedance, thereby cutting switching losses and contributing to the low FoM, which improves efficiency. With less heat needing to be dissipated, high-voltage power system designs can be simpler and more compact, making them suitable for space-constrained applications or furthering miniaturisation.

As AI data centres already are going beyond 100,000 individual GPUs, the need for more efficient power delivery is becoming increasingly important. AI data centres will require power outputs of one megawatt (MW) and more per IT rack before the end of the decade. Therefore, the HVDC architecture coupled with high-density multiphase solutions will set a new standard for the industry, driving the development of high-quality components and power distribution systems.

Saelig introduces additions to PicoScope 3000E series The four new models (two providing MSO capabilities) offer four analog channels, with either 100 or 200MHz bandwidth at 10-bit resolution and up to 14-bit precision with Enhanced Resolution. The 2GSa ultra-deep capture memory enables capturing long-duration signals at maximum sampling rate. This is complemented with the PicoScope DeepMeasure tool that delivers automatic measurements of waveform parameters on up to a million waveform cycles with each triggered acquisition. USB 3.0 Type-C connection and power ensures high-speed data transfer and compatibility with the latest generation of PCs, simplifying connectivity and setup, with an adaptor provided for earlier USB port types.

Included in the design is a 200 MSa/s 14-bit 20MHz AWG/Function Generator, which offers real-world waveform generation capabilities for a wide range of applications, eliminating the need for additional external equipment. Software control is via the PicoScope 7 User Interface for Windows, Mac and Linux, which even comes with free updates. 40 Serial Decoders are included at no charge to facilitate the analysis of serial bus communications, simplifying debugging and troubleshooting processes. Segmented Memory, Persistence, and Fast waveform updating in PicoScope 7 enhance waveform visualisation and analysis capabilities, enabling users to extract valuable insights efficiently. Memory segmentation can capture thousands of waveforms in quick succession and view them in the waveform buffer navigator, filtering them using criteria such as mask limit testing or measurement limits to drill down to significant waveforms. Also included are comprehensive analysis tools such as Advanced Math, Measurements, Masks and Digital Triggering for in-depth waveform characterisation and interpretation. The PicoScope software also automatically scales to take full advantage of the improved resolution of larger display sizes, including 4K ultra-high-definition models. Host computer displays are typically larger and of higher resolution than the screens of traditional benchtop oscilloscopes. This allows space for the simultaneous display of time- and frequency-domain waveforms, decoded serial bus tables, measurement results with statistics and more.
