Moreover, Spire Biomedical, a subsidiary of Spire Corporation, announced that the National Institutes of Health (NIH), National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR), has awarded Spire a nine-month Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I Grant for $114,173, to develop coa- tings for dental arch wires used in orthodontics. The purpose of the coatings is to reduce sliding resistance between the arch wire and bracket, lowering the force required to straighten teeth, reducing treatment times, and resulting in more predictable outcomes for the orthodontist.

exas Instruments Incorporated (TI; NYSE: TXN) introduced four new SIMPLE SWITCHER®
power
management integrated circuits for space-constrained point-of-load designs in industrial, communications and automotive applications. The National 1-A LMZ10501 and 650-mA LMZ10500 nano modules with on-chip inductor and 2-A LMR24220 and 1-A LMR24210 nano regulators feature high performance and tiny, nano packaging as small as 7.5-mm2 in conjunction with the WEBENCH®
. Used online design
tool, the products simplify and speed the design process. In a typical space-constrained design, TI’s new nano power modules, which support an input voltage range of 2.7 V to 5.5 V, can be designed alongside the nano power regulators to step down from an intermediate voltage rail to the point of load, providing a complete power management solution in applications with space and height limitations.
