IoT development boards support LoRa platform
Two new SmartEverything solutions from Arrow have extended the portfolio of development boards at RS Components. The SmartEverything LION IoT development system-on-module (SoM) board and the SmartEverything ARIS IoT board both offer support for Internet of Things (IoT) application development.
IC facilitates batteryless RF communication
A new IC for batteryless RF communication has been launched by Panasonic, extending its range of NFC tags. The MN63Y1221-E1 guarantees global interoperability as well as low power consumption. The new IC is available from Rutronik. The MN63Y1221-E1 is compliant with JISX6319-4 (212kbps/ 424kbps), ISO/IEC14443 Type A (106kbps), and ISO/IEC14443 Type B (106kbps/212kbps/424kbps) 13.56-MHz contactless IC card standard, thus guaranteeing global intero...
Cooling units have strong emphasis on connectivity
Capturing, transmitting and processing data lies at the heart of what has been dubbed 'the fourth industrial revolution'. It’s one of the reasons why cutting-edge connectivity has become so important in factories and similar environments to facilitate new, smarter ways of working, such as predictive maintenance.Connectivity is a feature of Rittal’s new cooling units and chillers and its recent collaboration with Siemens MindSphere and...
Bluetooth low energy controls self-powered light switches
Wireless and self-powered light switches can create flexible, maintenance-free LED lighting systems, says EnOcean, which introduced its Easyfit switches at Smart Lighting 2017, in Hamburg, Germany. The company manufactures the switch with integrated Bluetooth module, operating via an app on an Android phone.

NFC anti-tamper solution keeps the tipple on the shelf
NXP Semiconductors and GCL Technologies have announced that after one year of intensive research and development, both companies are proud to present the industry’s first fully integrated and mass scalable Near Field Communication (NFC) tamper evident closure solution dedicated to the wine and spirits industry.
Now that's a sound idea
When we first heard the Chirp technology in action, we were transformed back in time to the dial-up Internet connections of the 90s, and the sounds we heard emanating from our ‘modem’ while waiting patiently to get online. But don’t be fooled into thinking Chirp is simply a rehash of old technology, it’s far from it as Chirp’s CEO, Moran Lerner, explained.
Transmission of data to the cloud
Capturing, transmitting and processing data lies at the heart of the fourth industrial revolution.Therefore, cutting-edge connectivity is a must for equipment in factories and similar environments – for example to enable predictive maintenance. At Hannover Messe 2017, Rittal was there to highlight the communication capabilities of its new cooling units and chillers. And by presenting these in conjunction with Siemens MindSphere and IBM Wats...
