STMicroelectronics Enables Economical ‘Zapper’ Set-Top Boxes for Worldwide Digital-TV Access
STMicroelectronics has introduced a single-chip demodulator/decoder for Internet-TV, terrestrial or cable set-top boxes, to increase accessibility to digital television in growing markets such as China, India, Latin America and African territories, as well as countries where analog switch-off is ongoing.
STMicroelectronics Extends Class-D Amplifier Portfolio, Enabling High-End Home Multimedia to Look as Good as it Sounds
STMicroelectronics has announced production availability of an analog-input 2x100W class-D power amplifier. This high-end amplifier extends the company’s range of class-D devices that deliver audiophile sound quality in components smaller than competing devices by using an advanced chip manufacturing process.
Innovative Chip from STMicroelectronics Enables Greater Storage Capacity and Faster Multimedia Access on Portable Devices
STMicroelectronics today introduced the industry’s first voltage-level translator compliant with the latest SD (Secure Digital)1 3.0 standard. The increase in storage capacity and access speed of SD 3.0, together with the low static power consumption and small package size of ST’s new level translator, makes it an ideal choice for interfacing application processors or digital basebands to SD memory cards in mobile phones, portable media playe...
Sensorless Field-Oriented Motor-Control Solution for ARM Cortex Based Devices
STMicroelectronics has announced a complete three-phase motor-control development kit based on the STM32 Flash microcontroller – launched mid-2007 – which provides all the necessary hardware and firmware to enable users to evaluate this 32-bit solution, and to begin development of their own sensorless motor-control application. The STM32 uses the powerful ARM Cortex-M3 core, developed specifically to address the requirements of cost-sensitiv...
