NX Malaysia opens new warehouse at KLIA to expand work, cargo storage space

KUALA LUMPUR, April 5 (Bernama) -- Nippon Express (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd (NX Malaysia), a Group company of Nippon Express Holdings Inc, has opened a new warehouse in the Free Commercial Zone (FCZ) of Malaysia's Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) to expand its work and cargo storage space.

NX Malaysia has heretofore, been operating out of a 3,800m2 warehouse in the MAS Freight Forwarders Complex (Lot A-9, Lot A-10) in KLIA's FCZ.

However, growing cargo demand over recent years prompted it to open a new 5,900m2 warehouse (NX Malaysia KLIA DFTZ Center) in the same FCZ, giving it a combined warehouse space of approximately 9,700m2.

The more efficient work flow lines available at the new warehouse will allow NX Malaysia to ensure safer and more rapid handling and to better satisfy the needs of its customers, according to a statement.

Going forward, the NX Group, formerly the Nippon Express Group which renamed its corporate group name following transition to a holding company system in January, will continue utilising its networks and functions to enhance services to meet the increasingly sophisticated and diversified logistics needs of its customers.

Toshiba's 150V N-channel power MOSFET uses U-MOSX-H, improving power supply efficiency

KUALA LUMPUR, March 31 (Bernama) -- Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation (Toshiba) has launched a 150V N-channel power MOSFET ‘TPH9R00CQH’ that uses the latest-generation process, ‘U-MOSX-H’, and that is suitable for use in switching power supplies for industrial equipment -- including those deployed in data centres and communications base stations.

According to a statement, TPH9R00CQH has drain-source on-resistance about 42 per cent lower than TPH1500CNH, a 150V product that uses the current-generation process, U-MOSVIII-H.

Optimisation of the new MOSFET's structure has improved the trade-off between the drain-source on-resistance and two charge characteristics, realising excellent low-loss characteristics.

In addition, spike voltage between the drain and source at switching operation is reduced, helping to lower electromagnetic interference (EMI) in switching power supplies.

Two types of surface mount packages are available: SOP Advance and the more popular SOP Advance (N).

Toshiba also offers tools that support circuit design for switching power supplies. Alongside the G0 SPICE model, which can verify the circuit function in a short time, the highly accurate G2 SPICE models, which accurately reproduce transient characteristics, are now available.

Toshiba will expand its lineup of power MOSFETs that improve equipment power supply efficiency by cutting losses, helping to reduce power consumption.
