Ampleon, which was spun off from NXP Semiconductor in 2015, provides RF power products and solutions across various fields based on over 50 years of expertise accumulated in the RF power sector.
In particular, Ampleon's VDMOS RF power devices for broadcasting, ISM, aerospace and defense communication applications provide robust and low thermal resistance, making them suitable for high-speed and high-power switching applications such as MRI systems, plasma generators, L-band radar systems, and non-cellular communications.
Kees Schetters, Vice President of Global Sales at Ampleon, stated, "We selected Rochester to deliver our inventory and related product wafers to customers."
Robert Maycroft, Director of Supplier Development at Rochester, said, "Customers can now continue to receive Ampleon RF power products through this strategic partnership between Rochester and Ampleon," and added, "These products will receive 100% certification from Ampleon as well as Rochester's certification and warranty."
Meanwhile, Rochester Electronics is the world's largest source of obsolete and active semiconductors, approved by over 70 major semiconductor manufacturers. Through original manufacturer approval, Rochester is remanufacturing original equipment, and has maintained a partner agreement since Ampleon's establishment.

Infineon becomes the first semiconductor company to produce flip chips for automotive applications.
Infineon has become the first semiconductor company to establish a dedicated production process for automotive flip-chip packages and has launched the OPTIREG TLS715B0NAV50, an ultra-compact linear voltage regulator for automotive applications. The IC is designed with its top surface facing downward and the IC heat-generating section oriented toward the package bottom, enabling thermal inductance to be increased 2 to 3 times when mounted close to the PCB. Compared to conventional package technology, higher power density improves footprint miniaturization as well.

Security Issues to Understand Before Adopting a RISC-V Solution
RISC-V is an open-source instruction set architecture (ISA) based on reduced instruction set computing (RISC). It is gaining attention because it is free and allows developers to implement functionality tailored to performance according to their desired design direction. As major semiconductor companies are launching RISC-V-based processors one after another, interest in RISC-V security is also increasing. This is because security is a more critical value in IoT devices and systems where RISC-V-based processors are primarily adopted than in any other application.
