High-tech start-up Movea has won a five-year contract to supply its cutting-edge context detection technology to a manufacturer of smartphone and tablet microprocessors. Movea has been trying to break into the context detection market for the past 18 months, and this new contract win, which is expected to generate substantial sales, marks a major step […] >>

Researchers from the French Nanoscience and Cryogenics Institute (INAC) and Spintec have developed a new logic circuit that combines CMOS and MRAM technology. This patented invention uses MRAM from Crocus Technology and marks Europe’s first working demonstrator of its kind. MRAM offers two key benefits: it’s non-volatile and it doesn’t need a power supply when […] >>

Until now patients wondering whether they have tuberculosis had to wait a full 72 hours before finding out the results of a skin test. A new optical read system developed by Leti under a Lyon-Biopôle project funded by the French government has reduced the waiting time to 18 hours—and waiting time could even be slashed […] >>

Leti researchers are getting ready to transfer to industry a new wireless communication system that combines ultra-wideband and RFID technology. The new system can transfer data between a mobile phone and a RFID tag at an impressive rate of 100 Mb/s, while using just a few mW of power. Data are stored locally, so users […] >>

Leti now offers partner businesses and universities an expansive library of 3D test patterns, built from the laboratory’s years of research on 3D stacking technology. The library can be used to test the performance of various interconnections and check compliance with specifications—from the very outset. The patterns can be used to test through-silicon vias (TSVs), […] >>
