IBM’s futuristic approach to building microchips will include human DNA, a paper published in a journal revealed. Artificial DNA nanostructures or DNA Origami provides a cheaper framework to develop tiny chips than what the current technology is capable of. Spike Narayan, researcher manager at IBM says the technology will need a lot of “experimentation […]
Intel and Micron develops 3-bit-per-cell NAND
Intel in conjunction with Micron have developed a 3-bit-per-cell (3bpc) NAND technology fabricated with 34nm. This breakthrough has made it possible for them to create the industry’s smallest and cost-effective 32-gigabit (Gb) chip that can be used in storage devices like USB drives and flash cards. The 3bpc on 34nm NAND is important for […]
RIM patent for hybrid resistive/capacitive touchscreen
Ask a company and they would give rational reasons so as to why one should go with capacitive or resistive touchscreens. But giving this one of a kind to a consumer defeats the advantages other type of screen has to offer. This is why, Research in Motion has come up with a novel solution. […]
SiRFstarIV powers new GSD4t GPS receiver, promises fast location fixes
CSR Inc. the parent company of SiRF Technology Holdings today revealed the GSD4t GPS receiver that uses the new SiRFstarIV architecture. The SiRFstarIV coupled with SiRFaware allows the GPS receiver to locate the place quickly without having to compromise on mobile device’s battery life. SiRFstarIV edge over others is its capability to maintain “better-than-hot-start” […]
KDDI develops microSD card with integrated Wi-Fi
KDDI Corp is at the Wireless Japan 2009 showcasing a microSD card fitted with a Wi-Fi radio. Sure, the concept is not new but KDDI Corp’s entry could give Eye-Fi a tough time if they decide to release it globally (particularly in US). The miniscule card measures a 11 x 16 x 0.7mm and […]
Researchers develop Invisible Flash to take photos in the dark without any glare
Researchers Dilip Krishnan and Rob Fergus at the New York University have developed a new type of flash that allows to take pictures in the dark without throwing off a glare. The flash uses a combination of infrared and ultraviolet lights, modified a flashbulb to emit light over a wider range of frequency and […]
Indian Government to develop ‘India Microprocessor’
Interesting piece of news hit a couple of days back – Indian Government is looking to develop India’s own microprocessor. A new entity will be floated under the name of Zerone with an initial investment of $200m. The corporation will have scientists from Bhabha Atomic Research Centre (BARC), Centre for Development of Advanced Computing […]
Micron produces 34nm NAND flash memory
Micron is now mass producing its new generation NAND flash memory that uses 34nm process technology. Lexar Media, subsidiary of Micron is the first company to gain advantage of this tech who will integrate these NANDs in their 32GB Platinum II SDHC and 16GB microSDHC cards. Micron’s 16- and 32-Gigabit (Gb) MLC NAND chips […]
Citi begins pilot testing NFC payments in India
