Ocean Tomo Industry Report

“Shutdowns and production delays caused by COVID-19 compressed growth in the OLED market for 2020, but looking forward, the Ocean Tomo OLED Industry Report reveals promising factors that will likely drive the post-Covid-19 OLED market.”

CHICAGO (PRWEB)
April 19, 2021

Ocean Tomo, LLC, the intellectual capital merchant banc™ firm, released its OLED Industry Report examining market opportunities, increased patent activity, and the growing complexity of intangible asset protection in the OLED industry.

The increased demand for eco-friendly lighting solutions and smart lighting systems offer lucrative opportunities for OLED market size growth. The market is expected to have a compound annual growth rate of 21.7% for 2020-2027. Growth is driven by trends in PMOLED displays, European and Middle Eastern OLED market initiatives, and the use of OLED technology in flagship devices of market leaders.

In the report, Kevin Bennett, Ocean Tomo OLED Industry Analyst, shares “shutdowns and production delays caused by COVID-19 compressed growth in the OLED market for 2020, but looking forward, there are promising factors that will likely drive the post-Covid-19 OLED market. To name a few, uses in smartwatches, automobiles, televisions and advertising displays, medical devices, and cell phones, coupled with consumer and government desire for eco-friendly lighting solutions make for a promising outlook of the OLED market. Strategies such as partnerships, private placement and M&A deals, and construction of new OLED panel manufacturing facilities suggests that market players are positioning to take advantage of the OLED projected market.”

OLED industry growth is strong with recent merger and acquisition activity being driven by the quest for innovation and gain in market share. The value of an OLED patent portfolio is substantial and the need for expert patent strategy and transaction valuation partners is increasing in importance especially when facing patent litigation in areas such as consumer electronics.

ABB’s new MicroDLynx IITM DC-DC converters help meet the power needs of demanding, data-hungry applications, providing highly accurate voltage regulation in a compact, 232-mm2 footprint.

DALLAS (PRWEB)
April 19, 2021

Pushing the boundaries of advanced IT and networking devices requires improvements in component density and functionality. And for power and electrical engineers, this equates to designing board-level power modules in ever-shrinking, high density packages. ABB’s new MicroDLynx IITM DC-DC help meet the power needs of demanding, data-hungry applications, providing highly accurate voltage regulation in a compact, 232-mm2 footprint – with a power density of 167 A/in2.

“When you look at the sheer computing power required in today’s data-intensive applications – from cloud computing, artificial intelligence (AI) and 5G to the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and high-speed networking – every square millimeter of board space that can be utilized for processing power is precious,” said Vesa Jokitulppo, senior product manager at ABB Power Conversion.

The new MicroDLynx II power modules – the latest addition to ABB’s proved DLynx II family of DC-DC converters – provide the precision power required for equipment including high-speed switches and routers, AI processors, application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs), high-current field programmable gate array (FPGA) processors, and ARM-based processors – and it does so in a small footprint that frees up valuable space for additional computing capacity and functionality.

Performance and Control

Features of the new MicroDLynx II non-isolated, high-density DC-DC converters – or UJT060 DC-DC converters – include:

• DC input voltage range of 7.5 to 14.4 volts (V).
• Precisely regulated, programmable output voltages of 0.5 to 2 V.
• Ability to link in parallel configurations of up to four units to achieve maximum output currents of 240A.
• Advanced digital controls and monitoring via PMBus 1.3 that creates “black box” fault detection for advanced diagnostics. PMBus commands can be set to record and store a wide range of parameters.
• 88% high efficiency power conversion from 12V input to 1V output, reducing energy consumption and improving thermal management.
• Minimal power thermal derating from airflow and ambient temperatures.
• Fully tested and IPC9592-qualified modules that can help reduce application time-to-market and design risk while also improving field reliability.
• Low transient and ripple attributes to meet load input voltage requirements.

New Digital Power Insights ProGUI III

In addition to the MicroDLynx II DC-DC converters, ABB has announced a new version of its proven Digital Power Insight software tool. The Digital Power Insight software integrates with ABB’s digital products – including AC-DC and DC-DC power supplies, digital bus converters, and point-of-load/voltage regulator modules – enabling communication between the power supplies and customer end-use equipment via a PMBus interface. This allows customers to easily select the right product for their application need and to test different options, digitally.

The new ProGUI III version of the software combines previous versions of the Digital Power Insight tool (including the graphical user interface, command line interface, and original ProGUI versions) into a single, software solution for all ABB Power Conversion digital power supplies and modules – including the new UJT060 MicroDLynx II.

Astro Digital’s Tenzing satellite with TILE 2 systems integrated [credit: Astro Digital]

BOSTON (PRWEB)
April 19, 2021

Accion Systems today announces that two TILE 2 in-space propulsion system units will launch onboard an Astro Digital micro-satellite aboard the June 2021 SpaceX Falcon 9 rideshare launch. Astro Digital’s Tenzing satellite is a rideshare satellite, hosting several payloads. Also included are two TILE 2 ion electrospray propulsion systems that will test on-orbit maneuvers in LEO and will test proximity operations maneuvers supported by Starfish Space software.

“Propulsive and RPOD technologies are critical to enabling the future of space missions,” said Chris Biddy, CEO of Astro Digital. “We are thrilled to support Accion Systems and Starfish Space with this important demonstration.”

The TILE propulsion system is uniquely superior to conventional electric propulsion, pioneering ionic liquid electrospray for commercial and government propulsion activities. The TILE 2 is the smallest system available, with unparalleled system SWaP (size, weight and power), that combines the use of a safe, inert liquid propellant and a simple mechanical design with few moving parts to create a propulsion system that is low-cost, compact, low pressure, and has less than 50% of the power draw of other propulsion technologies.

As part of the mission Accion Systems and Starfish Space will complete an on-orbit proximity operations demonstration. The team will combine Starfish’s CEPHALOPOD software and Accion’s TILE 2 thrusters, both already a part of the Tenzing mission, to work together to perform the first ever demonstration of rendezvous and proximity operations trajectories using low-thrust electric propulsion.

“Efficient proximity operations will enable a new set of activities in orbit,” said Austin Link, Co-Founder of Starfish Space. “Partnering with Accion on this test is key to validating our respective technical developments and showing they can work together.”

Starfish Space is commercializing their CEPHALOPOD software package, which opens up new opportunities for satellite rendezvous, proximity operations and docking (RPOD) missions. CEPHALOPOD is autonomous RPOD software that can use electric propulsion, enabling small RPOD spacecraft. This on-board guidance, navigation, and control capability gives small servicing vehicles eight times more maneuvering capability, which results in greater mission longevity and versatility.

“Precision proximity operations are critical for maintaining large constellations, refueling and repairing satellites in orbit, and countless other new space missions from in-space manufacturing to space tourism.” said Peter Kant, CEO of Accion Systems. “Combining Accion’s precise, modular thrusters with Starfish’s autonomy software will bring needed innovation to in-space navigation.”

About Accion Systems

Accion Systems develops advanced satellite propulsion systems for the space industry. Accion’s in-space propulsion technologies optimize scalability, performance, and efficiency. Accion’s flagship product, TILE, uses proprietary ion electrospray thrusters, bringing electric propulsion to satellites of all sizes and redefining in-space capabilities. Accion Systems was founded in 2014 and is based in Boston, MA.
