Yole Développement’s research has credited STMicroelectronics for capitalizing on the booming demand for MEMS in mobile devices by shipping a whopping 58% more MEMS units in 2012 to become the first company to reach $1 billion in MEMS sales. And that was in a year when the average prices of accelerometers and gyroscopes that are its core MEMS products dropped by 20%-30%.

electronica China and productronica China were successfully concluded at Shanghai New International Expo Center on March 21, 2013. The exhibition space has grown from three halls in 2012 to four halls in 2013. With 46,000 square meters, the trade fairs broke the records, increasing by 31 percent. 737 exhibitors from 17 countries displayed their latest developments and product innovations and showed the future market trend of the electronics indus...

STMicroelectronics announces its latest battery fuel-gauging device featuring patented innovations that improve long-term accuracy. This tiny chip, the STC3115, can be used in high-volume handheld electronics, and has already been selected by Samsung for some of its recent smartphones. Battery charge indicators – or fuel gauges - have become essential for managing devices such as smartphones, laptops or digital cameras.

STMicroelectronics tells ARM why they're shrinking their Ultra Low Power technology from 130nm to 110nm and what the benefits are, plus info on new software to help identify max. average consumption.

STMicroelectronics and the University of Amsterdam Faculty of Science have announced that a sophisticated bird-tracking system developed by the university is using advanced MEMS sensing technology from ST. Weighing as little as a 20 euro cent coin or a US quarter and smaller than a car key so as not to impede the birds’ flight, the tracking systems are sophisticated data loggers that can be attached to the back of the birds. The trackers enable...

STMicroelectronics has today announced it has shipped three billion MEMS sensors to date - laid side by side, these chips would exceed the height of Mt Everest. The achievement reconfirms ST’s position as the clear leader in Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems devices for consumer and portable applications. According to information and analytics firm IHS, ST’s total MEMS and sensor sales grew more than 19% in 2012, reaching a total of approximat...

This video is an introduction to FD-SOI (Fully Depleted Silicon On Insulator), and especially UTBB (Ultra-Thin Body and Buried oxide) produced by STMicroelectronics. FD-SOI is a breakthrough semiconductor process technology that delivers the benefits of reduced silicon geometries while enabling a simplification of the manufacturing process. Semiconductor devices based on FD-SOI run faster and cooler than those in bulk silicon.

IAR Systems announces a new version of its world-leading development tools for STMicroelectronics’ STM8. The new version 1.40 of IAR Embedded Workbench for STM8 adds user-friendly functionality in the form of a new text editor and source browser, integration with the version control system Subversion and new license management features. Also added is support for additional devices and a new debugging guide.

STMicroelectronics has revealed the latest generation of its pace-setting switch ICs for vehicle electronics such as lights and body modules. The new devices provide enhanced intelligent features, improve protection and reliability, and are up to 40% smaller than competing alternatives.

STMicroelectronics today announced details of a miniature smart sensor that combines a 3-axis accelerometer with an embedded microcontroller together in an ultra-compact 3x3x1mm LGA package for advanced custom motion-recognition capabilities.
