NXP accelerates German national transport ticketing with contactless microcontroller chip
NXP has announced that its secure contactless microcontroller chip – SmartMX, has been selected by the VDV-Kernapplikations GmbH & Co. KG, to power future electronic transport ticketing schemes in Germany. Alongside card and inlay-manufacturer Cardag, NXP will provide SmartMX ICs for around eight million contactless cards to be issued throughout Germany by 2012. The aim of the scheme is to provide a single ticketing solution that will be used a...
NXP licenses ARM Cortex M0 Processor
NXP has announced that it will be the first ARM Partner to license the new ARM Cortex-M0 processor. The Cortex-M0 processor is the smallest, lowest power and most energy efficient processor available from ARM. NXP intends to use the Cortex-M0 processor for a wide range of applications. Its compact size, energy efficiency and performance make it ideal for power management tasks in SoCs, ASSPs, and stand-alone microcontrollers. Potential applicatio...
Low-Cost Cortex-M0 MCU from NXP targets 8/16-bit applications
NXP today announced the availability of its ARM® Cortex™-M0 based LPC1100 microcontroller family from distributors in December. NXP’s LPC1100 is the lowest-priced 32-bit MCU solution in the market, bringing higher value and ease of use than existing 8/16-bit microcontroller through unprecedented performance, simplicity, low power, and more importantly, dramatic reductions in code size for all 8/16-bit applications. With 15 members initially,...
Versatile TDA20142 tuner reduces system costs and delivers exceptional performance in multiple applications
NXP today announced the TDA20142 – the first satellite silicon tuner addressing the challenging requirements of both free-to-air (FTA) and operator satellite set-top box (STB) applications.
