STMicroelectronics has integrated a 3-axis digital accelerometer with a 3-axis digital magnetic sensor in a single module. The digital compass module combines high accuracy with small form factor and low power consumption at a competitive cost, meeting the growing market demand for advanced navigation capabilities and emerging smart location-based services. ST’s high-performance system-in-package digital compass uses magneto-resistive technolog...

STMicroelectronics has announced a complete reference design for a high-bit-rate wireless audio solution intended for consumer electronic products such as home theatre systems, surround-sound and gaming speakers, DTV speakers, as well as portable music and aftermarket accessories. The “Drum” and “Violin” designs combine Infra-Com’s receiver side IrGateTM IC with the all-digital class D power amplifier and signal processor from ST’s So...

STMicroelectronics has announced a new motor control development kit, built around the recently-announced 32-bit STR750 microcontroller, which enables the rapid development of high-performance vector-control applications, using both Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors (PMSM) and 3-phase AC Induction Motors, for cost-sensitive appliance, industrial and HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning) markets.

STMicroelectronics has made the NicheLite TCP/IP stack available free of charge with its STR91x 32-bit Flash microcontrollers featured for networking applications, lowering cost-of-entry to that of open-source offerings but with the advantage of vendor support facilities. Compared to other third-party stacks, NicheLite is also royalty-free, helping manufacturers predict and manage their production costs.

The Portland Group, a wholly-owned subsidiary of STMicroelectronics, today announced the general availability of PGI Visual Fortran (PVF) Release 9.0 for Windows workstations, servers and clusters. PVF 9.0 is the first general release to include support for the building, launching and debugging of Microsoft MPI (MSMPI) Fortran applications from within the Microsoft Visual Studio integrated development environment.

STMicroelectronics and ST-Ericsson, a global leader in mobile platforms and semiconductors, are working with Adobe to accelerate Adobe® Flash® Player 10.1 and Adobe AIR® on their powerful chipsets with best-in-class multimedia and graphics capabilities, used in smartphones and connected digital-home devices.

STMicroelectronics announced the development of a new evaluation platform allowing customers to perform simulations of ST’s leading-edge analog and power chips. The new IC evaluation platform enables Cadence® OrCAD®, PSpice® a robust and widely diffused technology for the simulation of ST’s analog and power product families.

STMicroelectronics today introduced the industry’s first embedded microprocessor that couples two ARM Cortex-A9 cores with a DDR3 (Third-generation double-data rate) memory interface. Manufactured in ST’s low-power 55nm HCMOS (high-speed CMOS) process technology, the SPEAr1310 delivers high computing power and customizability for multiple embedded applications together with the high level of cost competitiveness offered by system-on-chip devi...

The Portland Group today announced the general availability of PGI Visual Fortran for Visual Studio 2010. PVF integrates PGI high-performance parallel Fortran compilers and tools with Microsoft Visual Studio to offer a high-productivity development solution to scientists and engineers upgrading to the latest 64-bit multi-core platforms running Microsoft Windows.

The Americas Region of STMicroelectronics (NYSE: STM), a world leader in microcontrollers, today launched the STM32 Design Challenge (www.stm32challenge.com), a contest for the design of innovative microcontroller applications across different industry segments. The three-phase competition, acknowledging the most creative, design-efficient and useful embedded system concepts built around ST’s cutting-edge 32-bit microcontrollers, will run for 6...
