CoWare, Inc. announced two new IBM model sets have been added to its SystemC Model Library. These include the IBM PowerPC 440 Processor Support Package and the IBM CoreConnect Bus Library, which consist of a set of SystemC models for PLB and DCR busses, and is available with some sample PLB and DCR peripherals.

QuickLogic announces that the one million gate version of PolarPro, the industry's lowest power programmable logic technology, is now available in a mil-spec temperature rating. This innovative programmable device, incorporating embedded memory with built-in FIFO control, and advanced clock management control units, offers unparalleled design security.

Intersil’s ISL6228 high-performance dual-output buck controller for notebook peripheral computing applications is capable of operating over the industry’s widest input voltage range (3.3V to 25V) and has a highly flexible output voltage range from +0.6 to +5.0V. These broad voltage ranges, combined with dual independent switchers, make this controller the ideal choice for notebook peripheral applications, as well as a host of general purpose...

Renesas Technology Europe has announced the immediate availability of the SH7780 microprocessor that delivers Pentium-class floating point performance into consumer and industrial markets. The device is ideal for applications requiring high-end graphics and so features a floating point unit (FPU) tailored for that purpose. Furthermore it consumes only 2.5W, is available in a -40 to 85 degree C version, integrates PCI, has a long life time, and ...

The extremely popular STK200 AVR Microcontroller Starter Kit from Kanda.com has been re-launched with a new USB programmer and USB JTAG Emulator. These USB tools are also available separately for existing users – 50,000 – to upgrade.

Ramtron International Corporation has launched the VRS51L3072, an 8051-based microcontroller with 2-kilobit (Kb) of non-volatile FRAM memory. Ramtron has added FRAM to its fast and flexible Versa 8051s for a quick and reliable non-volatile data storage and processing system that is ideal for saving system status, data logging, and storing nonvolatile variables in a range of applications from sensors and meters to industrial controls, instrumenta...

Demands for increased power requirements in a limited space, especially in datacom and server designs, have been addressed by the new SC4612 28-volt synchronous buck power converter from Solid State Supplies to enable system designers to increase port density while reducing board size.

Microchip introduces the 25AA1024 and 25LC1024 - the fastest 1 Megabit serial EEPROM devices in the industry – along with the 25AA128, 25LC128, 25AA512 and 25LC512 128 Kbit and 512 Kbit devices. Microchip now provides SPI serial EEPROMs across a wide memory-density range (1 Kbit – 1 Mbit). All of the new devices are specified to operate over an extended temperature range (up to 125°C), and provide the performance for which Microchip’s ser...

Fairchild Semiconductor ’s FDMS9600S and FDMS9620S are two highly integrated modules that significantly reduce board space while providing the ability to achieve higher conversion efficiency in synchronous buck designs. Each module in the FDMS96xx series combines a high-side and low-side N-Channel MOSFET and one monolithically integrated Schottky diode into a single, space-efficient, 5mm x 6mm MLP package. This integration results in a highly e...
