Vishay Intertechnology released new VSMY7852X01 and VSMY7850X01, two new 850 nm infrared (IR) emitters built on the company's SurfLight surface emitter technology. Offered in the high-power Little Star® package with a 6.0 mm by 7.0 mm by 1.5 mm footprint, the VSMY7852X01 and VSMY7850X01 offer exceptionally high current drives, radiant intensity, and optical power, while providing low thermal resistivity.
The VSMY7850X01 emitter contains a 42 mil chip and is designed for high drive currents up to 1 A and pulses to 5 A, while the VSMY7852X01 features a 20 mil chip for high drive currents up to 250 mA and pulses to 1.5 A. Due to the devices' low thermal resistivity of 10 K/W for the VSMY7850X01 and 15 K/W for the VSMY7852X01, the maximum current can be employed over almost the entire operating temperature range of - 40°C to + 100°C...

Integrated Device Technology developed and successfully demonstrated the industry’s first touch-over-AUX Embedded DisplayPort 1.3 (eDP™)-based timing controller (TCON) with integrated touch screen controller. The new TCON processes and transmits touch sensor data over the eDP auxiliary channel, eliminating a supplemental touch screen controller and USB interface to save space and lower costs in notebook, Ultrabook, and tablet applications.
IDT’s new eDP 1.3 TCON features an integrated touch controller designed to transmit touch data over the existing DisplayPort auxiliary channel, allowing system makers to eliminate a costly USB interface and reduce the number of wires that must pass through a display’s hinge...
