NVIDIA is gearing up to launch its next-gen Blackwell architecture RTX 50 series graphics cards, promising a major boost in performance. There have been plenty of rumors about GPU specs, potential SKU lists, and expected release dates. Recently, the details for the GeForce RTX 5090 and RTX 5080 have come to light.
On September 24, Samsung announced the launch of its first in-vehicle PCIe 4.0 SSD, the AM9C1, based on 8th generation V-NAND flash technology. Currently, samples of the 256GB AM9C1 SSD are undergoing testing with major partners, with mass production expected to begin by the end of this year. Samsung plans to offer a range of capacities from 128GB to 2TB, with the 2TB version anticipated to start production in early next year to meet the growing demand for high-capacity in-vehicle SSDs.
According to the latest report from TrendForce, the anticipated launch of NVIDIA's Blackwell platform in Q4 2024 is set to significantly increase the penetration rate of liquid cooling solutions. This rate is expected to rise from around 10% in 2024 to over 20% by 2025. The growth is attributed to heightened global awareness of ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) factors and the acceleration of AI server construction by CSPs (Cloud Service Providers), facilitating a shift from air cooling to liquid cooling solutions.
The global chip industry has been shaken by significant news: Qualcomm may be reaching out to Intel with an acquisition offer.

In recent years, wearable devices have seen explosive growth in various markets, especially in fitness tracking and medical monitoring, due to the convenience and real-time data feedback they offer. Devices like Samsung's Gear Fit 2, Qardio®Arm blood pressure monitor, and Under Armor's UA SpeedForm® Gemini 3 smart shoes provide users with vital health information such as sleep quality, activity levels, and walking or running pace.
Modern medical technology has revolutionized healthcare and patient outcomes. From diagnostic devices like ultrasound and endoscopic cameras to robotic-assisted surgery, advanced technologies have significantly improved the quality of care available today. Because medical electronics, especially those used in surgical settings, must adhere to the highest safety and performance standards, the precision of these devices is critical. This is where FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array) comes into play.
The instrument cluster in a car integrates multiple displays and indicators to assist the driver in operating the vehicle efficiently. It typically includes gauges like the speedometer, odometer, tachometer, oil pressure gauge, and fuel gauge, along with various warning and malfunction indicators. The instrument cluster provides a centralized and easy-to-read interface, presenting all essential system information.
Onboard chargers (OBC) play a crucial role in electric vehicles (EVs) by converting AC power from the grid into DC power suitable for battery charging. As the EV market continues to expand, the design and complexity of OBC systems have also evolved. This article explores the key considerations in choosing materials for OBCs, focusing on the comparison between Silicon Carbide (SiC) and Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistors (IGBT).
In modern electronic systems, the stability and reliability of power supply design are crucial, especially in applications requiring negative voltage, such as optical module biasing, operational amplifier supplies, and line drivers for low-power devices. This guide introduces a reference design based on the TPS62933 chip, which supports an input voltage range of 8V to 16V, providing a -12V output with a maximum current of 1.2A. This design offers engineers a simple and efficient solution for meeting various negative voltage requirements.
