New EiceDRIVER™ Power Family of Full-Bridge Transformer Drivers for Compact and Cost-Effective Gate Driver Supplies

The 2EP1xxR family comes in a compact TSSOP8 pin package with power integration and optimizations to generate an asymmetric output voltage. The family is optimized for asymmetric gate driver supply through its unique duty-cycle adjustment capability. The devices support a wide input voltage range up to 20 V. They also offer integrated temperature, short-circuit and undervoltage lockout (UVLO) protection to prevent unwanted system faults.

The isolated dual-channel DG5000 Pro Series are all-in-one generators that integrate Function Generation, Arbitrary Waveform Generation, Noise Generation, Pulse Generation, Harmonics Generation, and Analog/Digital Modulation. They can be powered from an attached battery pack to provide ground isolation and facilitate field test situations. All the 16-bit vertical resolution Pro models are priced significantly lower than the equivalent 14-bit Rigol DG5000 predecessors and offer improved specifications such as faster sampling and a larger 10.1'' HD touch screen, which allows configuring dual-channel waveforms on a single screen.

Allegro’s comprehensive suite of products encompasses cutting-edge true 48V motor drivers to address the thermal management needs of hybrid electric vehicles and AI Servers. Complementing these drivers is the APM81815, a 48V buck regulator designed for superior EMI performance in dual-voltage hybrid electric vehicles. Rounding out the list of new products is the AHV85311, a high-power isolated gate driver designed to accelerate the development of Silicon Carbide (SiC)-based power electronics. From optimizing efficiency in automotive applications to simplifying industrial designs as well as enhancing reliability in data centers, Allegro's new power IC innovations enable engineers to design smarter, more efficient systems.

The Return of Buttons: A New Era of Tactile Innovation in the Semiconductor Industry

Everything old is new again. Big Tech has begun to "re-buttonize" their products because users are tired of touchscreens. Reading Taylor Lorenz's piece on the matter made this Old Millennial rejoice. The return of tactile interfaces is more than just nostalgia—it reflects a shift in how we interact with tech.

With tactile technology making a comeback, the future of user interfaces may be powered by smarter, more energy-efficient analog circuits and semiconductor designs. The need for better interaction, precision, and longevity will challenge engineers to create more sophisticated solutions—paving the way for devices that feel just as good as they work.

As users demand more physical, tangible feedback from their devices, semiconductors are poised to lead the charge in shaping the next generation of interactive tech. The buttons of the future won’t just be simple switches—they’ll be intelligent components that enhance usability, sustainability, and performance. This shift towards haptic, responsive designs promises to be one of the most exciting innovations in human-machine interaction.

The semiconductor industry has a tremendous opportunity to meet this demand with smarter, more energy-efficient solutions that support tactile user interfaces in everything from automotive tech to consumer gadgets.

This emerging tactile tech revolution really excites me. What about you?
