Reference kits designed for contactless payments
For contact and contactless payment systems, NXP Semiconductors has released Europay, MasterCard and Visa (EMVCo) compliant hardware and software design kits. An EMV Level 1 compliant software stack is offered with the OM5597/RD2612 and the OM5597/RD2663 variants for both contact and contactless payment.
Development starts on Multibit MLU secure microcontroller
As part of a collaborative project supported by the French government, Crocus Technology is to develop a Multibit Magnetic Logic Unit (MLU) technology for secure transaction applications and the Internet of Things (IoT). This will be the first secure microcontroller designed with a Multibit MLU architecture. By expanding the density of memory with no trade-off in the size of the die, customers will gain two important advantages.
Wearables developed for glucose monitoring in diabetics
Although glucose test strips have improved the lives of millions of diabetic patients who need to monitor their blood glucose level on a regular basis, the days of high margin disposable glucose test strips may be coming to an end. This may benefit company’s developing alternative products for glucose monitoring, which do not require patients to cut themselves multiple times a day.

'Secure Connections for a Smarter World'
NXP will present its high performance mixed signal solutions to enable 'Secure Connections for a Smarter World'. Key demonstrations at the show will include Cabrio Car, an automotive showcase of future of the connected car including use cases such as RFID number plates and e-driver licenses.
Devkit makes it easy to add NFC to MCU systems
Providing a blueprint for an NFC implementation in any MCU-based system, ams has introduced the AS3911 NFC development kit and interface software stack. Using the kit, OEM designers do not need to implement a complete, proprietary software interface between a host MCU, its operating system and the NFC reader IC.
MCUs offer a smarter user experience in next-gen designs
Signalling an expansion of the ARM Cortex-M0+-based LPC800 series, the LPC82x family of MCUs has been released by NXP Semiconductors. Allowing embedded developers to meet the growing requirements for a smarter user experience in their next-gen product designs, the MCUs feature double the memory, a 1.2Ms/s ADC, DMA and triple the serial connectivity.
Mobile POS reference platform slashes R&D costs
Maxim Integrated will debut the MPOS-STD2 Mobile Point of Sale (MPOS) reference platform at the Cartes exhibition in Paris (Nov 4-6). It means payment terminal providers can enable customers of all sizes and security expertise levels to address the emerging mobile payment market. Maxim cites significantly reduced R&D costs and faster time to market by rapidly moving through product design and PCI certification.
