Toshiba: DCM32xx00 Series, automotive standard digital isolators compliant with AEC-Q100.
The safety and reliability of on-board chargers (OBC) and battery management systems (BMS) in hybrid-electric vehicles (HEV) and electric vehicles (EV) require devices that ensure isolation and prevent noise-propagation. Automotive standard digital isolators provide solutions for the multi-channel high-speed communications and high CMTI these isolation devices require.
The new isolators use Toshiba's proprietary magnetic coupling type isolated transmission method to achieve a high CMTI of 100kV/μs (typ.). This delivers high level resistance to electric noise between input and output in isolated signal transmission, enables stable control signal transmission and contributes to stable equipment operation. A low-pulse-width distortion of 0.8ns (typ.)[2] and a data-transmission rate of 50Mbps (max)[2] are also achieved. The new products are suitable for 2-channel high-speed communication applications such as I/O interfaces with CAN[3] communications.
Toshiba already mass produces 4-channel automotive standard digital isolators, and has now extended its product lineup to 2-channel small SOIC8-N packages. Going forward, the company will expand its range of channels and packages for automotive and industrial equipment. It will continue to provide high-quality isolation devices and photocouplers that support the reliability and real-time data transmission required by automotive equipment.

Toshiba Signs MOU to Explore Use of Weather Data Service in Malaysia's Smart Farming Flagship Project
- Pilot Project to Guide Farming Operations with Forecasts of Localized Downpours - KAWASAKI, Japan, Aug. 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Toshiba Digital Solutions Corporation (Toshiba) has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Malaysia's MyDIGITAL Corporation and the Muda Agricultural Development Authority (MADA) on exploring the use of Toshiba's advanced Weather Data Service in Malaysia's flagship smart farming initiative, Projek Ladang Padi IR4.0. The MoU marks a significant step in Toshiba's efforts to support climate resilience and agricultural innovation in Malaysia by leveraging its forecasting technology to address the growing challenges posed by extreme weather. Like many other countries, Japan and Malaysia are experiencing an increase in sudden, localized heavy rainstorms that are difficult to predict. In Malaysia, where prolonged monsoon rains are already a challenge, these intense downpours can physically damage paddies, and worsen ground saturation and flooding, leading to widespread damage. This rise in extreme and erratic weather highlights the urgent need for rapid and highly accurate forecasting technologies to mitigate their impact. Toshiba launched its Weather Data Service in Japan in May 2023, leveraging real-time radar data and the company's proprietary analysis to deliver highly accurate forecasts of localized downpours and their intensity. As part of its global expansion of the business, Toshiba signed an MoU with MyDIGITAL in February 2024 to explore the technology's application in Malaysia. Through this ongoing collaboration, Toshiba began discussions with MADA to assess the potential use of the service in MADA's flagship smart farming project, Projek Ladang Padi IR4.0. Established in 1972, MADA leads Malaysia's largest agricultural development initiative, focused on enhancing rice productivity, farmer livelihoods and regional economic growth in the Muda region in northwest peninsula Malaysia. The current smart farming project, supported by government funding, integrates digital technologies to transform rice farming in the region. Facilitated by MyDIGITAL, Toshiba and MADA will carry out a pilot project to evaluate how Toshiba's Weather Data Service can support agricultural decision-making in rice cultivation. In the pilot, Toshiba will analyze real-time weather radar data from the Malaysian Meteorological Department and forecast the likelihood and intensity of localized heavy rainfall. Alerts based on the analysis will be sent to MADA as needed, and MADA will use water gates to manage water flow in rice paddies. This process is expected to reduce the impact of the rainfall and protect the rice crop from damage. Toshiba is committed to contributing to global disaster prevention and mitigation by accurately capturing and forecasting atmospheric conditions across wide and localized areas. Through applications in various industries, Toshiba aims to help realize a safer and more resilient society. Toshiba's Weather Data Service: About Toshiba Digital Solutions Corporation Toshiba Digital Solutions Corporation is developing businesses globally which utilize digital and quantum technologies, such as IoT and artificial intelligence (AI), as the Toshiba Group company which handles digital solutions. By maximizing the power of various data generated in the wide range of business areas of the Toshiba Group and creating platforms, we will create a series of valuable services and contribute to achieving carbon neutrality and a circular economy. Toshiba Digital Solutions Corporation will continue to create new value, together with our customers and partners, based on the Basic Commitment of the Toshiba Group: "Committed to People, Committed to the Future."

Toshiba Releases Lens-Reduction Type CCD Linear Image Sensor with Low Random Noise That Helps Improve Image Quality in Devices Such as A3 Multifunction Printers
KAWASAKI, Japan, August 05, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation ("Toshiba") has launched a lens-reduction type[1] CCD[2] linear image sensor "TCD2728DG" for A3 multifunction printers. Shipments start today. The sensor has 7,500 image sensing elements (pixels)[3] and supports A3 multifunction printers. It is also more effective at reducing random noise (NDσ)[4] than Toshiba's current TCD2726DG. Business offices are seeing a growing need for high-speed, high-resolution copying and scanning of large volumes of different kinds of documents. This is particularly true for A3 multifunction printers, where improving image quality has become an important issue, and NDσ in the signal has to be suppressed to enhance image quality. TCD2728DG has lower output amplifier gain[5] than Toshiba's current product, TCD2726DG, and reduces NDσ by approximately 40%[6]. This improvement enhances image quality in multifunction printers. The new CCD linear sensor achieves a data rate of 100 MHz (50 MHz × 2 channels), enabling high-speed processing of large volumes of images. This makes it well-suited for line scan cameras used in inspection systems that require real-time decision-making. Toshiba will continue to expand its product lineup to support scanning by multifunction printers and the sensing applications of inspection devices, and to meet growing demand for high-speed, high-resolution imaging and sensing technologies.
