Innovasic is pleased to announce that 2012 marks the company’s 20th anniversary as a business dedicated to providing embedded semiconductor solutions in the industrial and military markets. The company has grown from ASIC design services to a supplier of semiconductor solutions and software for embedded communication and control.

Atmel has announced a new radiation-hardened SPARC processor for space applications, the AT697 Revision F delivering 90 MIPs at 100 MHz over full temperature and voltage ranges for only 0.7W. With more than 1600 flight models of its predecessor, the TSC695E, sold around the world, Atmel has an unrivalled flight heritage on this SPARC V7 processor version.

Atmel has announced a low-cost re-targeting flow for migrating designs from its low entry-cost AT91CAP ARM-based customizable microcontrollers to its ASICs that minimize unit cost in high volume. This flow, based on automated netlist re-targeting that preserves system functionality, enables customers to benefit from the low development costs and rapid prototype availability of the CAP™ and then, once the product has been proved in its appli...

Atmel announced production availability of the next-generation Atmel 32-bit AVR® UC3L microcontroller (MCU) with picoPower® technology and embedded capacitive touch controller peripherals. By lowering the static power consumption by 90 percent and active power consumption by 45 percent, Atmel enables a performance/power ratio unsurpassed in the microcontroller market. With 1.5 DMIPS per MHz and DSP (digital signal processing) instructions at yo...

Honeywell today introduced a single side liquid media option to its extensive line of TruStability Pressure Sensors originally introduced in July 2009.

Honeywell is rounding out its SMART position sensor portfolio with the new Rotary Configuration that provides 360° non-contact angular position sensing. With this product, Honeywell offers a SMART Position Sensor that encompasses the most basic geometric configurations: lines, angles, and circles.

Synopsys, Inc. announced availability of the latest release of its Synplify Pro and Synplify Premier FPGA synthesis tools. The new Synplify tool release enables engineers to build higher reliability into their FPGA designs through a new feature that provides automated creation and preservation of error-correction logic, including safe finite-state machines (FSMs). Additionally, an enhanced interface for the tool allows designers to track progress...

Blue Pearl Software, Inc announced that its Blue Pearl Software Suite, for Windows and Linux operating systems, supports Synopsys’ Synplify Pro FPGA synthesis software for VHDL and SystemVerilog designs. Blue Pearl Software Suite’s connection to Synplify Pro software improves interoperability with Synopsys’ leading synthesis flow and makes it easier for FPGA designers to add Blue Pearl Software’s automatic Synopsys Design Constraints (SDC...

Synopsys today announced the verification FastForward migration program. The program helps Cadence Incisive and Mentor Graphics Questa users to migrate to the VCS functional verification solution and benefit from its superior technologies. These include: innovative performance engines; the industry's broadest SystemVerilog support for VMM, OVM, and the UVM methodologies; a powerful constraints solver; new coverage closure technologies; unique l...

Cambridge Temperature Concepts has designed a wireless temperature sensor that can measure body temperature to within a thousandth of a degree – current solutions typically have precision of a tenth of a degree. The coin sized unit also uses innovative power saving techniques to extend the battery life to in excess of six months rather than the usual life of a few days. The sensor’s unprecedented precision and long life open up many new app...
