Article content
KAWASAKI, Japan — Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation ('Toshiba') has launched a line of 2-channel high-speed standard digital isolators for automotive applications. The new 'DCM32xx00 Series' features four devices that support stable operation with high common-mode transient immunity (CMTI) of 100kV/μs (typ.) [1] and high data transmission rate of 50Mbps (max) [2]. All conform to the AEC-Q100 standard for the safety and reliability of automotive electronic components. Shipments start today.
Article content
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.
Article content
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.
Article content
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.

JD Retail continues to play a central role in helping shoppers access quality products at competitive prices while offering brands a powerful and supply-chain-backed platform for scale. With rising user activity, enhanced brand partnerships and deeper category penetration, JD Retail remains the backbone of long-term growth strategy. JD Retail is expanding in high-growth areas like supermarkets, fashion, and food delivery, while reinforcing its low-price strategy. With initiatives like the RMB 200 billion 'export to domestic' program and strong momentum in food delivery, JD is confident that these moves will drive deeper engagement and support long-term growth. To support future growth, JD is accelerating AI adoption across its retail and fulfillment layers. From AI-powered shopping guides and personalized recommendations to automated ad targeting and fulfillment optimization, technology is driving efficiency and improving the experience for users and merchants. JD's 2025 618 campaign followed this playbook and broke records, with over 2.2 billion orders and more than double the number of shoppers year over year. The debut of food delivery and aggressive subsidies during 618 highlights JD's growing ecosystem scale. These efforts are translating into financial strength. In the first quarter of 2025, JD Retail generated revenues of RMB 263.8 billion (US$36.4 billion), accounting for approximately 87.7% of total revenues.

JD Retail's Competition in China JD Retail faces growing competition from Alibaba BABA and PDD Holdings Inc. Sponsored ADR PDD. Alibaba's Tmall and Taobao wrapped up 618 with solid brand growth, highlighting improved merchant tools and sustained consumer demand. Alibaba's platforms emphasized quality over quantity, reflecting a shift toward healthier, service-oriented growth. PDD Holdings, meanwhile, eased its 'lowest price' rule, adopting a 'same product, same price' model to attract more brands. PDD Holdings introduced price protection guarantees and extended its 618 campaign to over a month, using subsidies and flexible pricing to deepen engagement. Both platforms are innovating aggressively to challenge JD's dominance.

Why AI Stock Astera Labs Was Crushing It This Week

According to data compiled by S&P Global Market Intelligence, Astera Labs (NASDAQ: ALAB) stock's price was floating almost 11% higher week to date on early Friday morning. Investors were mainly reacting to news the tech infrastructure company reported about a new business tie-up with an Asian peer. A cross-Pacific Ocean partnership On Monday, Astera and Taiwanese chipmaker AIChip Technologies announced in a joint press release that they have formed a strategic business partnership. Together, the two will aim to exploit opportunities afforded by sky-high demand for artificial intelligence (AI) functionalities. AIChip, which specializes in application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) chips, and Astera are teaming up to offer "validated, interoperable solutions for hyperscalers building next-generation AI infrastructure," according to the press release. As the name suggests, a hyperscaler is essentially an extremely large data center. These are in vogue now due to the heavy resource requirements of AI. Aiming to reap a bundle from AI Astera and AIChip offered almost no details about their new partnership, including its financial parameters. Given that, it's tough to gauge how this collaboration might affect their fundamentals. Judging by the market's reaction, though, investors don't seem to mind -- teaming up on projects has clear potential to benefit both companies.
