Connect PIC MCU applications to the cloud
From coffee makers to thermostats to irrigation systems, PIC microcontrollers (MCU) are at the heart of millions of embedded applications. As developers migrate next-generation PIC MCU-based applications to the cloud, they currently must overcome complexities associated with communications protocols, security and hardware compatibility.
embedded world: MCU and sub-GHz radio on IEEE 802.15.4 module
An IEEE 802.15.4-compliant module that combines an ultra-low-power microcontroller (MCU) with a sub-GHz radio was unveiled this morning (February 26) at embedded world in Nuremberg. It accelerates time to market and provides long-lasting battery life in wireless-networked sensors.
Ethernet bridges using low-power sub-states enable power savings
A new Ethernet bridge which provides new options for embedded and automotive platform designers who are seeking Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe) 3.1 Low-Power Sub-State (LPSS) L1.1 and L1.2 for power savings has been introduced by Microchip with the LAN7430/1.
End-to-end LoRa security solution provides secure key provisioning
As the LoRa(Long Range) technology ecosystem accelerates, security remains an area for improvement in the market due to vulnerabilities that leave the network and application server keys accessible in the memory of modules and microcontrollers (MCUs) paired with a LoRaWAN stack. If keys are accessed in a LoRaWAN device, a hacker can impersonate it and authorise fraudulent transactions, which can result in a scalable attack with substantial losses...
SoC design suite boosts FPGA designer productivity
As each new generation of devices scale, Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) designs are increasing in complexity and resource utilisation, making designer productivity essential to accelerating time to market. Microchip Technology, via its Microsemi Corporation subsidiary, has announced the release of Libero SoC version 12.0.
Development kit for AVS supports far-field voice interaction
It has been announced by Microchip, via its Microsemi Corporation subsidiary, that its AcuEdge ZLK38AVS Development Kit for Amazon Alexa Voice Service (AVS) has introduced far-field voice pickup and the flexibility to build devices with multiple mic array configurations. The solution reduces BOM costs while addressing the requirements of small-form-factor designs.
Collaboration to enable flexible rate optical transmission
