Swedish university spinoff, TranSiC AB has raised €440K from Volvo Technology Transfer Corp (VTT) and Midroc New Technology, according to Semiconductor Today. The startup is working on silicon carbide transistors that it hopes will make it into new hybrid vehicles (like the Prius), power converters to reduce the size, and ac/dc motor control. The early adopters of such chips are companies that make light-emitting diodes (LEDs) for auto headlights, dashboards and other lighting applications.
