Globally, we are, on average, living longer – improved access to better healthcare means that global life expectancy has increased by more than six years between 2000 and 2019, to 73.4 years. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the proportion of the world's population aged over 60 years will nearly double between 2015 and 2050, from 12 percent to 22 percent.

The importance of motion control is increasing as more aspects of our world become automated. To effectively drive a motor, control inputs describing the speed and position are necessary. However, different techniques exist for this sensing, each of which has different attributes and applications.

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. – onsemi introduced its latest silicon carbide technology platform, EliteSiC M3e MOSFETs. The company also disclosed plans to release multiple additional generations through 2030.

It takes some effort to remind people why automotive cybersecurity is essential. With cars transitioning toward partial autonomous driving, it is becoming a growing concern for automobile original equipment manufacturers (OEMs).

Autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) are becoming increasingly common across many industries, including manufacturing, logistics and warehousing, agriculture, retail, hospitality and more. They provide several benefits, like higher efficiency, increased productivity, and safer work environments. 

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. – onsemi released the latest generation of automotive-qualified 1200 V EliteSiC silicon carbide (SiC) M3S devices designed for high-power OBCs up to 22 kW and high voltage to low voltage DC-DC converters.

Increasing data rates are usually the primary focus when new data communication protocols are developed. However, many of the countless sensors and actuators operating in industrial and building automation applications need more than fast data rates to work correctly. These edge devices are currently interconnected using a myriad of legacy multidrop protocols, which increase the complexity and cost for original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) in supporting them.
