The first in a new family of mains-operated LED lamp drivers from STMicroelectronics (NYSE: STM), the worldwide leader in ICs for electronic lighting control, will enable designers to deliver more reliable and efficient LED retrofit lamps featuring primary-side current regulation.

STMicroelectronics just unveiled AC switches that are ideal for controlling appliance motors. These AC switches can be used without many of the additional components normally needed to ensure smooth switching and provide protection. The new devices will allow one-stop design for heavy-duty home appliances such as washing machines or refrigerators. Consequent ruggedness will lower the end products’ total cost of ownership.

The Portland Group, a wholly-owned subsidiary of STMicroelectronics and a leading supplier of compilers for high-performance computing (HPC), today announced that its entire line of PGI Accelerator compiler products, including its new PGI 10.4 release, now support the latest NVIDIA graphics processing units (GPU) based on the Fermi architecture. The NVIDIA Tesla 20-series supports many new features for the HPC space as well as support for version...

STMicroelectronics has unveiled three new families of precision op-amps targeting low-power and portable products, with power-saving features that include high-speed performance at low supply current, operation from a 1.5V supply, and device-shutdown capability.

STMicroelectronics today announced a new power- and cost-optimized solution extending its family of ultra-compact ‘low-g’ linear accelerometers. The tiny, low-power MEMS device provides precise acceleration values in all three dimensions, meeting the booming demand for miniaturized motion-sensing solutions in portable electronic devices.

STMicroelectronics has announced a new generation single-chip solution for digital cable-TV STBs. The newest member of the Company’s leading OMEGA family, the QAMi5107 is an integrated demodulator plus MPEG decoder for standard-definition digital TV. Using the new device, manufacturers will be able to cut their total component cost and simplify board design and assembly, while offering increased performance and enhanced security features.

STMicroelectronics today announced a new solution extending its family of ultra-compact ‘low-g’ linear accelerometers. Its ultra-compact square footprint and low power consumption makes the LIS244AL motion-sensing device ideally suited for battery-powered portable applications, such as mobile phones, portable multimedia players or remote controls.

STMicroelectronics has announced the TS4601, a stereo headset amplifier optimized for feature-phone applications that improves audio performance, extends battery life and enables more responsive user controls compared to existing solutions.

STMicroelectronics has announced two new Power MOSFETs, intended for the most demanding DC/DC converter applications, which use the latest version of ST’s proprietary STripFET technology to deliver extremely low conduction and switching losses, up to 3W lower in a typical voltage regulator module, and to achieve the lowest figure of merit – FOM = Rds(on) x Gate Charge (Qg) – among comparable competitive devices.

STMicroelectronics announced details of its next-generation STA370BWS SoundTerminal chip, which delivers increased performance at a highly competitive price. The new chip employs ST’s leading-edge Full Flexible Amplifier (FFX) technology to deliver high-quality stereo audio at 10W and above, in various consumer applications, including the latest ultra-thin LED-backlit Flat TVs.
