Analog Devices Announce Field Instrument Signal Chain Solution
Analog Devices reveal the CN0267 demonstration circuit for a loop powered HART (Highway Addressable Remote Transducer) enabled smart transmitter, for industrial applications that need to operate within a set 3.5-mA power budget. This field instrument circuit demonstrates a complete low power, high precision signal chain solution with minimum area overhead, which has been tested and verified by ADI as part of their Circuits from the Lab reference ...
DI2CMS, I2C Master – Slave Bus Interface
Digital Core Design has introduced its newest I2C Bus Interface soft core. It is fully compatible with Philips v. 3.0 specification, which means, it can operate at Standard, Fast, Fast Plus and High Speed (up to 3,4 Mb/s).
Baby You Can Drive My Car
The average mid-range car has over a dozen microprocessors in it. High-end models have over 100. Those systems need to be ultra-reliable and re-usable, they need to be tough and robust, and they need to be cheap. How can a developer possibly meet all those goals at once?
Infineon Leads Industrial Semiconductor Vendor Share Ranking In 2012
According to analysis by Semicast Research, Infineon was the leading vendor of semiconductors to the industrial sector in 2012, although its lead over second placed Texas Instruments was cut to just a few tenths of a percentage point. Both companies maintained a clear lead over the next largest vendors, STMicroelectronics and Renesas Electronics, with Analog Devices completing the top five. Semicast calculates that revenues for industrial semicon...
More Than One Fourth of Industry Wafer Capacity Dedicated to <40nm Process Geometries
More than one quarter of installed wafer capacity worldwide is dedicated to producing IC devices using process geometries (or feature sizes) smaller than 40nm, according to data in IC Insights’ Global Wafer Capacity 2013—A Detailed Analysis and Forecast of the IC Industry’s Wafer Fab Capacity.
Dual 750mA/250mA Linear LDO Regulator with Independent Inputs Offers Ultralow Noise
Linear announces the LT3030, a dual low noise, low dropout regulator with independent inputs and independent shutdown control for each channel. The device delivers continuous output current up to 750mA on one channel and 250mA on the other channel, with a low dropout voltage of only 300mV at full load.
