Zytronic has secured another major contract for its ruggedized touch sensor products in Asia. The company’s ZYBRID sensors, based on its innovative proprietary Projected Capacitive Technology (PCT), have been specified by the beverage dispensing division of the JR East Group, for inclusion in acure - a next generation digital vending machine being deployed through its expansive network of railway stations.

STMicroelectronics (NYSE: STM) today announced a single-chip microcontroller solution intended for both PC-integrated and freestanding smart-card applications resulting from a partnership agreement with Gemalto – a world leader in digital security and the world’s leading supplier of smart-card readers*. The new ST7GEM is a secure MCU in ST’s ST7 family, pre-programmed with smart-card interface software from Gemalto, and requiring the additi...

Embedded control engineers prefer the simplified programming provided by floating-point architectures, but are often deterred by the higher cost. Addressing this paradox, Texas Instruments Incorporated (TI) today announced what is said to be the first fixed-point digital signal controllers (DSCs) that are entirely compatible in hardware and software with high-performance floating-point DSCs. TI’s new TMS320F282x series of DSCs combine the a...

Texas Instruments has announced the release of the SimpliciTI network protocol, a proprietary low-power radio frequency protocol targeting simple, small RF networks (less than 100 nodes). SimpliciTI network protocol was designed for easy implementation with minimal microcontroller resource requirements. The protocol runs out-of-the-box on TI’s MSP430 ultra-low-power microcontrollers and CC110x/CC2500 RF transceivers. The next release of Simpli...

ACAL Technology has helped Parrot - a global leader in wireless devices for mobile phones – to develop the world’s first consumer drone controlled by an iPhone®, IPod® Touch or iPad®. The AR.Drone combines real-time video with advanced computer graphics and WiFi® interactivity to create augmented-reality iPhone gaming for one or more players.

Industrial and programmable power supply specialist, Safety Power Group, has introduced a new range of air-cooled programmable DC electronic loads that offer the industry’s smallest footprint to save valuable rack space in automatic test equipment (ATE) applications.

As part of its JENCOLOR range of function boards, MAZeT GmbH is introducing several new solutions and OEM systems for hand-held applications. The new MTCS-FB1 sensor hardware, based on MAZeT's True Colour sensors, provides non-contact colour measurement with system interfaces such as Bluetooth, USB, or RSxxx. The sensor system provides XYZ color values (DIN5033 / CIE1931 colour space). Once the measurements are calibrated to a repeat accuracy of

New surface-mount V-chip aluminium electrolytic capacitors from ACAL Components are designed to withstand reflow soldering to +260°C. Manufactured by NIC Components, the six new families of liquid electrolyte, aluminium capacitors are compatible with the Sn-Ag-Cu (SAC) alloy lead-free soldering process which has emerged as the industry-standard replacement for Sn-Pb solder alloys for RoHS-compliant products.

Fairchild Semiconductor has launched Power Supply WebDesigner – an easy to use, powerful online simulation tool that allows designers to throw the application note away and “Auto Design,” optimise or “Advance Design” like a power supply expert.

Zarlink Semiconductor Inc. has announced that it is sampling a range of integrated analog/digital PLLs (phase-locked loops) that meet all Synchronous Ethernet timing requirements, including the latest recommendation from the ITU-T (International Telecommunications Union). Consented in June 2007, the ITU-T G.8262 recommendation (former G.paclock) outlines the minimum performance requirements for timing devices used to synchronise networking equipm...
