Reinventing the PLC for Industry 4.0
A new reference design platform is showing how today’s technology can drastically improve the performance of industrial PLCs. Sally Ward-Foxton reports.
EV car charger solution features V2G communication
Microsemi and STMicroelectronics have contributed to the development of an EV car charger solution targeted at IoT system designers. Featuring V2G (Vehicle-to-Grid) communication and support for a wide range of network and application protocols,Tatung's module for EV supply equipment utilises Microsemi’s Le87501 PLC line driver and ST’s ST2100 STreamPlug SoC.The solution, which is supported by the OpenV2G software stack, also utilises...
Beer and chocolates on offer at Embedded World
SILICA will be focussing on connectivity and automation and will be hosting seven demonstrations at Embedded World 2015 in Nuremberg (Feb 24-26) dismissing the norm of glass case displays and wall-mounted videos. So visitors will be able to watch the Maxim beer mug factory (though no mention of whether beer is included) and a chance to order different chocolates via NFC tags.
Super-slim rectifiers save space, weight & energy
Helping miniaturise electronic control modules, power converters and motor drives, STMicroelectronics has introduced a family of automotive-qualified high-voltage ultrafast rectifiers. The devices' extremely low profile, light weight and -40 to +175°C operating temperature range support space-efficient vehicle electronics and equipment installed in harsh environments, such as mobile basestations and outdoor lighting.
The choice between STTMRAM/MRAM & RRAM will be made by 2017
According to Yole Développement, the technological choice between STTMRAM/MRAM and RRAM will be made in the next two years. In its report, titled 'Emerging Non Volatile Memory (NVM) Technology & Market Trends', the company describes why and how emerging NVM technologies will be increasingly used in industrial and transportation, enterprise storage, wearables, mobiles devices, mass storage and MCU smart cards.
Universal debug engine centre stage at Embedded World
PLS Programmierbare Logik & Systeme’s Universal Debug Engine (UDE) 4.4 will make an Embedded World 2015 debut in Nuremberg next month (Feb 24-26). The UDE 4.4 features significantly enhanced debugging procedures for complex system-on-chips (SoCs) with heterogeneous controller cores, optimised data visualisation in system-level debugging as well as dedicated support of a wide range of state-of-the-art 32-bit multicore SoCs of different m...
Bluetooth controlled robot made with NUCLEO-F072RB
Build a Bluetooth controlled Robot with Nucleo STM32F072RB NUCLEO-F072RB, by assembling few components available on the market and using ARM mbed community.
3D graphics application is FASTER
STMicroelectronics has tested and validated an experimental 3D-graphics application based on ray-tracing technology that had been implemented on an ARM-processor-based test chip attached to an FPGA. The effort for ‘Facilitating Analysis and Synthesis Technologies For Effective Reconfiguation’ (FASTER), which was partially funded by the European Union Seventh Framework Programme (FP7 IC T 287804), was performed as part of a tight R&...
Analyser kit can detect Ebola virus in less than 75 minutes
In collaboration with Italy’s National Institute for Infectious Diseases Lazzaro Spallanzani, STMicroelectronics and Clonit have developed a prototype portable analyser kit which can detect the Ebola virus in less than 75 minutes.
STM32 MCUs now available in small memory sizes
Offering additional choices for designers, the STM32F446 MCUs from STMicroelectronics combine enhanced ARM Cortex-M4 processing performance and compact 256 or 512KB on-chip Flash options with 128KB RAM, efficient memory-extension interfaces and extended connectivity and communication capabilities.
