MagnaChip Launches WXGA AMOLED Driver IC for Mobile Applications
MagnaChip Semiconductor Corporation announced the launch of its Wide Extended Graphics Array "WXGA" (1280x768) AMOLED driver IC (model: EA8061) targeted for use in smartphone applications. One of the distinct advantages of the WXGA-level driver IC is its extremely high video display resolution, a unique feature not found in standard AMOLED drivers.

MagnaChip is ramping production of the EA8061 and delivering the AMOLED driver IC to a major Korean electronics manufacturer for use in selected Android-based smartphones this year. MagnaChip introduced its first AMOLED driver IC in 2004 and has been successfully delivering AMOLED driver ICs for use in smartphones, digital still cameras and game consoles.
The EA8061 supports high-definition video based on RGB stripes and features Mobile Industry Processor Interface Display Serial Interface (MIPI DSI), Content Adaptive Brightness Control (CABC), Automatic Current Limit (ACL) and Multi Power Saving (MPS) to deliver performance efficiency and low power consumption.

Energy Efficiency with Class D Amplifier Modules
Class-D switching amplifiers are helping audio designers create personal multimedia devices and home audio/visual systems that demonstrate how compact and stylish equipment can also deliver high sound quality and high audio output power. The key to this breakthrough, providing freedom from the large and bulky boxes housing traditional audio products, lies in the class-D amplifier’s high energy efficiency, which is typically around 90%. This allows designers to reduce or eliminate heatsinks as well as using smaller-sized PCBs and smaller components such as transformers, connectors and power supplies.

The Role of Hall Effect Sensors in Power Distribution Infrastructure
Power distribution units (PDUs) form an essential part of modern computing and data communications hardware. They provide multiple outputs for transferring electrical power with maximum efficiency, controlling the power capacity and safeguarding against the possible causes of supply interruption. With an ever increasing need from tech savvy consumers for higher data throughput and greater quantities of data storage capacity, as well as tough international legislation now governing CO&sub2; emissions, the demands being placed on these units are proving challenging for engineering teams to satisfy.
