Freescale Semiconductor plans to incorporate its proven and highly successful AltiVec vector processing technology into the multicore QorIQ product family. AltiVec addresses high-bandwidth data processing and algorithmic-intensive computations, delivering DSP-level performance for control and data path processing tasks. Benchmarks conducted by the Embedded Microprocessor Benchmark Consortium (EEMBC) have demonstrated 10x performance improvements ...

Multi-Contact has expanded its range of RobiFix three-pole connectors for robotic arm cabling. The cost effective, primary circuit connectors for robot dresspacks are now available with three-core back ends as well as single-core versions.

Honeywell expands its magnetic position sensor product portfolio with the SS360NT/SS360ST/SS460S High Sensitivity Bipolar Latching Digital Hall-effect Sensor Integrated Circuits. Bipolar latching magnetics make these products well-suited for accurate speed sensing and revolutions-per-minute measurement.

ZMD AG introduced a class-leading 16-bit sensor signal conditioning IC (SSC). Developed for resistive bridge sensors, the ZSSC3017 combines high accuracy amplification, 16-bit precision analog-to-digital conversion, and an 18-bit DSP for linearization and calibration functions. The highly integrated CMOS device offers performance accurate enough for altimeter/barometer systems, data merging with GPS receivers, strain gauges, medical gas and infus...

DAILY RFID has released the newest UHF passive tag with a small size of 3cm by 4cm. Complying with ISO18000-6C or ISO18000-6B industrial standard, the UHF passive tag is suitable for harsh conditions while keeping accurate tracking performance.

Visitors to the Farnborough International Airshow this year will be able to see the acclaimed HALOSENSOR drill targeting system in action at the TT electronics Technology stand D14 in Hall1. The HALOSENSOR range can accurately locate blind holes even in complex or curved structures such as aircraft wing assemblies.

Micro-Robotics has introduced the VM2, a new embedded, controller that is a development from the highly successful VM1 controller that has been the company’s flagship product for the past five years. The VM2 is smaller, measuring only 52mm x 48mm, costs some 15% less, is considerably more powerful and 15 times faster than its predecessor, has very low power consumption and brings many other advantages to designers of modern control systems. T...
