STMicroelectronics (NYSE: STM), a global semiconductor leader serving customers across the spectrum of electronics applications, has published its annual Sustainability Report. Entitled “Our Culture of Sustainable Excellence in Practice”, the report provides comprehensive details of ST’s Sustainability strategy, policies and performance during 2010 and illustrates how ST embeds sustainability into its business practices to create value for ...

STMicroelectronics is enhancing its powerline communication (PLC) capabilities with the completion of its acquisition of the semiconductor assets and intellectual property of Arkados.

STMicroelectronics has made a significant step forward in its advanced high-definition TV System-on-Chip (SoC) platforms. ST’s move puts it squarely at the forefront of technology development for the next generation of connected TVs that are enabled to run Adobe® AIR®-based games and other applications.

STMicroelectronics has introduced what it says is the world’s first family of devices specifically optimized to protect the Low Noise Block (LNB) voltage regulator in satellite set-top-box applications against lightning and electrical overstress surges. The LNBTVSx-22x range provides 3kV, 4kV and 6kV optimized protection (8/20µs) devices that fully comply with the LNB supply voltage and IEC61000-4-5 protection standards.

STMicroelectronics has announced an innovation that will help reduce the size and cost of surge protectors for electronic equipment by providing specified energy absorption capability up to the maximum operating temperature. Competing devices must be derated significantly at temperatures above 25°C.

STMicroelectronics today introduced a new high-precision op-amp that benefits customers with an ultra-low input offset voltage guaranteed over a wide common-mode voltage range. This feature, added to the highly competitive cost of the TS507, makes it the ideal solution for automotive and industrial applications.

STMicroelectronics today announced the extension of its 32-bit STM32L series of microcontrollers. The expansion of the family now includes devices with memory densities of 256 and 384 Kbytes, thereby offering a Flash memory range from 32 up to 384 Kbytes for embedded application engineers. The series is now entering into volume manufacturing and the first devices, offering 64 and 128-Kbyte memory densities, are expected to be available in product...

STMicroelectronics is now delivering the first samples of its new STM32 F3 series of microcontrollers to major OEM customers, enabling early evaluation of this important new line in ST’s product family featuring the ARM Cortex-M core embedded. The new F3 series extends the scope of ST’s STM32 family by allowing designers to tackle mixed-signal control applications. STM32 F3 microcontrollers are system-on-chip devices based on the Cortex-M4...

As chips add new functionality and system designs evolve away from boards and toward multi-chip system-on-chip (SoC) architectures, developers of handheld and consumer electronics are faced with stricter pin and package constraints. Texas Instruments, a key member of the IEEE working group, announced that it is driving the ratification of the IEEE 1149.7 standard, a new two-pin test and debug interface standard that supports half the number of pi...

As manufacturers seek to differentiate their products with new features that add value for customers, STMicroelectronics is helping designers meet higher product-performance targets at ultra-competitive prices by introducing its STM32 Value High-Density microcontrollers. These new microcontrollers offer extra program memory and on-chip functions, extending the range of the STM32 Value Line family to include devices from 16 to 512 Kbytes of embedd...
