(Not Your Mother’s) Black Friday Edition

Fish Fry - November 26, 2010

In my special Black Friday Fish Fry this week, I talk about what exactly merits a Black Friday “special edition”, the peanut butter and chocolate combo that is the Intel/Altera E600C collaboration, Xilinx’s 28Gbps transceivers and Digi-Key’s redesigned booth for electronica 2010. Oh and there’s a nerdy giveaway at the end!

Join me for this week’s news wrap-up with my spin on the high-tech news of the week…

If you like the idea of this new series, be sure and drop a comment in the box below. I appreciate all of the comments submitted so far and we are working on implementing as many as we can.

If you don’t like it, please send your comments to spam@techfocusmedia.com. I’ll get to them right after I refinance my house, refill my online prescriptions, and help out that friendly Nigerian banker that keeps e-mailing me.

OK, seriously – all comments are welcome. We’ll be working to enhance the FishFry each week – as long as you’re watching.

Traction Inverter
Sponsored by Infineon
Not only are traction inverters integral parts of an electric drive train and vital to the vehicle motion, but they can also make a big difference when it comes to the energy efficiency and functional safety of electric vehicles. In this episode of Chalk Talk, Amelia Dalton chats with Mathew Anil from Infineon about the variety of roles that traction inverters play battery electric vehicles, how silicon carbide technology in traction inverters can reduce the size of electric car batteries and how traction inverters can also help with cost reduction, functional safety and more.
