Unlocking the processing power of wireless modules
07 September, 2012 by Jacques Suire | Supplied by: Netgear
When embedded designers take advantage of the often-overlooked processing power of a wireless module, they can typically eliminate the system microcontroller and thus create an advanced, cellular-enabled system that is smaller, more efficient and much cheaper to produce. This article gives guidelines for choosing a module that will act as both microcontroller and modem.

Eliminating loss in power transmission
27 August, 2012A team of researchers at RIKEN and the University of Tokyo has demonstrated a new material that promises to eliminate loss in electrical power transmission. The surprise is that their methodology for solving this classic energy problem is based on the first realisation of a highly exotic type of magnetic semiconductor first theorised less than a decade ago - a magnetic topological insulator.
How to avoid traps in plastic electronics
27 August, 2012Plastic electronics hold the promise of cheap, mass-produced devices. But plastic semiconductors have an important flaw: the electronic current is influenced by ‘charge traps’ in the material. These traps, which have a negative impact on plastic light-emitting diodes and solar cells, are poorly understood.
