Hall 3 Booth 3402, ST will demonstrate solutions which help deploy microelectronics more widely, creatively and cost-effectively, addressing key societal challenges as well as enriching people’s lives.

Two fully automotive-qualified, high-precision data-acquisition System Basis Chips (SBCs) have been released by ZMDI. For simultaneous measurement of battery voltage and current as well as internal and external temperatures, the ZSSC1750 and ZSSC1751 feature two high-precision, high-resolution ADCs.

For anyone challenged with collecting data on rotating components like drive shafts, rotors, reciprocating rods or even track vehicle treads - there is now a solution from California-based DTS that eliminates the need for slip rings and telemetry.

Offering high computing power and comprehensive functionality, dSPACE has introduced a compact control system development platform for laboratory use, MicroLabBox. According to dSPACE, the platform makes creating, optimising and testing controllers, and implementing data acquisition applications easy and cost-efficient for both industry and academia.

The UK’s first driverless cars, designed to help commuters, shoppers and the elderly travel short journeys, wereofficially trialled on UK roads for the first timeon Wednesday 11thFebruary.Up to now, the scope for testing driverless cars has been limited, but as the Government considers changes to the Highway Code to allow public use,industry has been given the green light for testing on public roads.

The new DT7837 ARM-based embedded solution from Data Translation is designed for noise, vibration and acoustic measurement applications and features high-accuracy 24-bit data acquisition technology. The module provides an ARM Cortex-A8 processor with 2 GB flash memory and interfaces for USB, Ethernet and RS232 as well as a SD card slot.

According to a report published by Lux Research, open standards, innovative communications protocols and robust middleware will drive the industrial internet, creating new energy and resource efficiencies, particularly for smart buildings and smart factories.

An ultra-low-power wireless microcontroller platform that helps customers go battery-less with energy harvesting or enjoy always-on, coin cell-powered operation for multiple years has been announced by EBV Elektronik. It gives users the flexibility to develop products that support multiple wireless connectivity standards using a single-chip and identical RF design.
