Smart homes over TCP/IP — EnOcean Alliance members present new solutions at this year's CeBIT
At CeBIT 2011 (1-5 March) three members of the EnOcean Alliance will present smart solutions for energy-efficient buildings enabled by EnOcean's energy harvesting technology. A focus will be integration of the energy-autonomous wireless solutions in smart homes over TCP/IP, using an internet connection for cost-effective networking. The following members of the EnOcean Alliance are exhibiting in Hanover: BSC Computer (hall 2, booth F28), Shaspa (...
Freescale cleans up small combustion engines with electronic control solution
Faced with worldwide emissions regulations and rising gas prices, the small engine market is migrating from mechanical carbureted systems to cleaner, more efficient electronic control and electronic fuel injection (EFI). To address the global need for these eco-friendly designs, Freescale has combined a highly integrated analog device with a 16-bit microcontroller (MCU) to provide a cost-effective platform solution ideal for small engine control.
Freescale expands DSC portfolio for digital power and motor control
With global demand on the rise for greener appliances and industrial equipment, manufacturers are seeking ways to enhance energy efficiency while reducing system costs. To address these needs, Freescale has expanded its family of digital signal controllers (DSCs) that offers increased performance, a flexible set of peripherals with reduced system costs for industrial applications. The MC56F82xx family is especially useful for digital power conver...
Freescale introduces KwikStik development tool for Kinetis microcontrollers
Cost-effective tool combines low-power MCU with integrated debugger and development and run-time software bundle for rapid development
Freescale charging technology helps put an end to “vampire” energy loss
Freescale Semiconductor is finding innovative ways to stop “vampire” energy loss, the loss of power that occurs when an AC adapter is plugged into an electrical outlet but isn’t charging a device. Freescale’s new Watt Saver technology automatically eliminates no-load power consumption for AC adaptors, potentially providing substantial energy savings over existing manual versions. In addition, Freescale will donate one percent of all Watt ...
