The total investment is 4 billion US dollars! Gexin announces that the first equipment has been moved into a new factory building
Recently, semiconductor foundry GlobalFoundries announced that its first equipment has been moved into the company's new factory in Singapore. Gexin collaborated with the Singapore Economic Development Authority and invested with loyal clients to reach this milestone just one year after the groundbreaking of the first phase of Singapore's capacity expansion project. With the achievement of this milestone, Gexin has taken another step towards the goal of expanding its manufacturing capacity in Singapore factories, thereby better meeting the increasing demand for Gexin manufacturing chips in the global market. These chips are widely used in automobiles, smartphones, wireless connectivity, Internet of Things (IoT) devices, and other applications.

What types of photoelectric sensors are included? What are their characteristics?
A photoelectric sensor is a device that converts optical signals into electrical signals. Its working principle is based on the photoelectric effect. The general term for sensors that use light to detect objects is a device that emits light signals from the emitting part of the sensor, which are reflected, blocked, and absorbed by the detected object, and then detected by the receiving part and converted into corresponding electrical signals to achieve control. According to the different phenomena of photoelectric effects, photoelectric effects can be divided into three categories: external photoelectric effects, internal photoelectric effects, and photogenerated volt effects. What types of photoelectric sensors are included? What are their characteristics? Let's take a look together.

Models and main technical parameters of common temperature sensors
Temperature sensor refers to a sensor that can sense temperature and convert it into a usable output signal. Temperature sensors are the core part of temperature measurement instruments and have a wide variety. According to measurement methods, it can be divided into two categories: contact type and non-contact type. According to the characteristics of sensor materials and electronic components, it can be divided into two categories: thermal resistance and thermocouple. What are the common models of temperature sensors? What are the main parameters? Today, let's give you a detailed explanation.
