Indie Semiconductor to acquire Teraxion

Indie Semiconductor announced it has signed a definitive agreement to purchase TeraXion Inc., a market leader in the design and manufacture of innovative photonic components. This acquisition accelerates indie’s vision of becoming a semiconductor and software level solutions provider for multiple sensor modalities spanning advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) and autonomous vehicles.

Since their founding in 2000, TeraXion has built a solid industry reputation based on innovative and highly reliable components, underpinned by more than 30 global patents. The Company produces low noise lasers, Bragg gratings and integrated photonic elements to address high-performance applications. More recently, TeraXion was an optical sensing reference design partner of indie, supporting next-generation Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) systems for automotive light detection and ranging (LiDAR).

Winbond Unveils New 1.8V 512Mb SPI NOR Flash for 5G and Other High-End Server Applications

Winbond Electronics Corporation announced it is expanding its total solution of SPI NOR Flash with the introduction of the new single die monolithic 1.8V 512Mb SPI NOR flash that can support up to 166 MHz standard/dual/quad SPI clocks. Apart from the existing 3V 512Mb W25Q512JV, the new 1.8V W25Q512NW SPI NOR Flash also features pin-to-pin compatibility, enabling customers to easily upgrade to higher flash storage capacities without having to change the footprint of their designs.

This enables them to extend the life of their products, speed time to market, and save development time and effort by having one single flash platform that can be used across their future product roadmap.

“Emerging 5G applications require both high-quality and high-density SPI NOR flash,” said Winbond. “Our W25Q512NW SPI NOR Flash delivers on all these requirements, while also providing the best solution in the industry and ensuring the reliable supply capacity that is backwards and forwards compatible to the lowest to the highest flash densities available.”

SIMCom Launches New-Generation 5G Products

SIMCom launched two modules SIM8210C and SIM8210C-M2 that support the 5G independent networking (SA) mode. The two modules specialized for data application scenarios with higher cost performance will better empower thousands of industries.

SIM8210C and SIM8210C-M2 are 5G communication modules developed based on the Qualcomm 315 5G IoT modem. They support 5G NR /LTE-FDD/LTE-TDD band and comply with R15 protocol, with a maximum rate up to 1.5Gbps. Both modules support GNSS and FOTA to meet customer demand for positioning and upgrading. Meanwhile, they have various interfaces, including PCIe, USB3.1, GPIO, etc., with powerful scalability.

Competencies

Successful cooperation is based on mutual trust. Through open dialogue, we will get to the core of your company’s identity and harness your company’s full potential. Your needs and challenges drive our activities. Together, we create a scenario that is then put into action with our partners (see list of partners here). Hardware, software or a grand idea without a concept behind it is just “off-the-shelf technology”. But you should expect more: embedded systems that are tailored perfectly to your needs. That’s tailored technology.

ANALYSIS

Each process starts with an honest assessment of the current situation, taking market conditions and your core areas of expertise into account. We regard this phase as an open exchange of information in an open-minded and unrestricted way. As a trusted partner and challenger, the greatest possible benefit for you is our biggest goal.

Therefore we accept rejections, restrictions or changes to an existing order during the analysis phase. Three questions are key in this context: What do you really want to achieve? Which barriers are you confronted with? Will it take your company forward?

CONCEPT

In the concept phase, your wishes and needs are translated into proposed specific solutions and matched with the portfolios and skill sets of our partners. You will profit from our semiconductor, system and market experience as well as from our capability to make technical resources available.

The proof of concept covers not only technical but also commercial aspects providing the foundation of your business decisions.

IMPLEMENTATION

Now the “doing” phase starts: PRISMA brings together the right resources at the right time in the right place. We take care of the project management using the latest techniques as well as escalation and moderation tasks. You will benefit from smooth cooperation and fast time to market by using our extensive partner network and coordination capabilities.

The success of your project is not the end of the story: we stay by your side throughout every stage of the product lifecycle, provide technical support and assist you with sales and acquisition consulting.
