Ainekko has acquired the intellectual property of the struggling startup Esperanto and has announced that it will open-source this technology. This move raises questions about whether this is the first instance of RTL design being fully attempted in an open-source manner.

WeEn has launched a 2000V rectifier, a specialized diode designed for converting AC to DC in high-voltage electrical systems. This rectifier allows current to flow in one direction while blocking it in the reverse, making it suitable for applications requiring high voltage conversion.

D-Wave has increased its quantum computer sales and announced new achievements in quantum supremacy.

GlobalFoundries has acquired AMF, positioning itself as a leading player in the silicon photonics market. This acquisition aims to generate $1 billion in revenue from silicon photonics, a technology that integrates optical components with silicon circuits, enhancing data transmission speeds and efficiency. The move reflects GlobalFoundries' commitment to expanding its capabilities in advanced technologies and meeting the growing demand for high-performance computing solutions.

III has made significant advancements in e-paper technology, paving the way for the development of e-paper ID cards. These innovative ID cards are designed to provide real-time information, moving away from traditional paper cards. This technological shift is expected to enhance the functionality and usability of identification systems in various applications.

The Dutch government's actions against Nexperia, a semiconductor company, highlight potential vulnerabilities in Europe's automotive chip supply chain. This situation raises concerns about the European Union's strategy to achieve chip sovereignty, as reliance on external suppliers could jeopardize the region's technological independence and security.
