MagnaChip Semiconductor Corporation has announced that it now offers planar-type Hall-effect sensors for foundry customers. The Hall-effect sensor has been adopted by the market for an increasing number of applications, such as smartphone cameras for the closed-loop auto focus feature and for the auto iris function.

  Designer and manufacturer of analogue and mixed-signal semiconductor products, MagnaChip has announced the availability of 0.13 micron Multiple-Time Programmable Intellectual Property (MTP-IP) memory cores targeted for mobile and industrial applications.

How sensor technology is changing in order to meet growing demand from the handheld device sector. Dr Seong-Min Choe, Team Manager of New Market Development, Display Solutions Division, MaganChip Semiconductor, discusses in this ES Design magazine article.

MagnaChip Semiconductor Corporation today announced the launch of an advanced 4-channel LED backlight unit (BLU) driver IC (Model: MAP3242) that features a 50% increase in driving power making it ideally suited for TV applications.

MagnaChip Semiconductor Corporation has launched a series of 4 channel LED drivers for use in LED monitors and LED-TV applications. These new device drivers from MagnaChip are designed to fit the back light unit structures of the latest LED monitors and televisions. Each channel has the equivalent of a 150mA/65V current balance MOSFET embedded in it that is capable of driving up to 20 LEDs in a 40W LED backlight unit.
