With ever-tightening environmental regulations around the world, emission regulations for cars with internal combustion engines are becoming more stringent. In order to improve emissions performance, it is necessary for such cars to efficiently burn fuel to achieve complete combustion as much as possible. Accordingly, the direct fuel injection method that directly injects fuel at high […]

Board to FPC narrow pitch connectors for wearable devices
Panasonic Corp. announced today that its Industrial Solutions Co. has commercialized the R35K series of board to FPC narrow pitch connectors for use in wearable devices and will launch full scale mass production this month. The new connectors reduce the board mounting areas and are configured to be highly resistant to vibrations and impacts, contributing […]
Board-to-board connectors provide direct connection between FPC and board
Panasonic has commercialized a connector with a unique structure that allows direct connection between an automotive FPC (flexible printed circuit) and the board. This connector eliminates the need for wire harnesses previously needed for connection, allowing the use of fewer components and fewer assembly person-hours for vehicles, as well as making room for improved design […]

The LF Series offers low resistance, and minimal leakage current combined with a rated lifetime of 6,000 hours – the longest available in the market. With a 5.5V nominal rating, capacitance […]
Rechargeable pin-type and flexible lithium ion batteries a form fit for wearables
Panasonic Corporation will showcase its rechargeable Pin-type Lithium-ion battery (CG-320A, CG-425 and CG-435) as well as its Flexible Lithium-ion battery (CG-062939, CG-063555, and CG-064065) at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) January 5-8th, 2017, in Las Vegas, Nevada. Panasonic Corporation will exhibit these two products in Panasonic booth #12908 in the Central Hall of the Las […]
Supercapacitors: a good fit for the right niche
“Supercapacitors” (or electric double layer capacitors) have been around for a long time. Early uses were as an alternative to rechargeable batteries for retaining memory contents in domestic equipment. They were even made to look a bit like batteries in some cases, rather than electrolytic capacitors, such as these Panasonic RG series ones: This particular […]
