STMicroelectronics (NYSE: STM), a global semiconductor leader serving customers across the spectrum of electronics applications, has announced a new generation of extreme power-saving microcontrollers (MCUs), the STM32U5* series, to meet the most demanding power/performance requirements for smart applications including wearables, personal medical devices, home automation, and industrial sensors.
FLEX SUPPRESSOR® offers a broader frequency range and reliability when designing for 5G connectivity, portable electronic devices, and automotive electronics.
The infrastructure to support the Internet of Things (IoT) is now well established, extending far beyond the unseen legions of servers and data centers to reach right into our homes, offices and factories.
Chromatic white-light sensor increases options for rapid non-contact scanning, helps electronics and medical manufacturers succeed with emerging technologies.
TDK Corporation (TSE 6762) has expanded its Micronas embedded motor controller portfolio to address higher temperature applications. The HVC 4222F and HVC 4422F were developed for operating smart actuators in applications with ambient temperature requirements up to 150 °C. HVC 4222F offers 32k flash memory while the HVC 4422F comes with 64k flash for more complex software implementations. These high temperature devices target applications in combustion vehicle drive trains, and emerging thermal management systems in electric and hybrid vehicles.*
ROHM has developed a new Wi-SUN FAN (Field Area Network) module for infrastructure applications, capable of connecting up to 1,000 nodes in a mesh network.
