Contest sets real-life IoT challenge to participants
Participants in a contest organised by Hackster.io will need to reimagine something from their everyday lives that could benefit from intelligent IoT, and use SmartEdge Agile and the Brainium portal to create it. As Avnet’s project-based community for anyone who wants to learn about programming and building hardware, Hackster.io challenges its community to use the power of IoT every day.
System-on-Module with three processor cores
Global provider of IoT/Embedded Computing Technology (ECT), Kontron, is reportedly one of the first companies to introduce a System-on-Module (SOM) based on the brand-new STM32MP157 processor by STMicroelectronics. By the Dual Cortex-A7 and the Cortex-M4 processors' three cores in one chip, the 25.4x25.4mm module achieves maximum performance in terms of visualisation and computing power.
MCUs deliver performance three comparator outputs
TheSTM8-SO8-DISCO8-bit microcontroller (MCU) Discovery Kit from STMicroelectronics lets users evaluate all three STM8 variants currently available in the popular 8-pin SO8 package.As well as three-in-one value, the kit offers no-frills simplicity and features to jump-start the next stage of development.
Smart-antenna controller cuts board space
A new digital controller from STMicroelectronics, the STHVDAC-253C7, is for tunable capacitors such as ST’s STPTIC family, and shrinks the size, bill of materials (BoM), and power consumption of antenna-tuning circuits for stabilising smartphone RF performance. Using the STHVDAC-253C7 with STPTIC capacitors for impedance matching and frequency tuning almost completely eliminates the effects of environmental variations.
MOSFETs bring performance to bridge and ZVS converters
STMicroelectronics’ MDmesh DM6 600V MOSFETs contain a fast-recovery body diode to bring the performance advantages of the company’s latest super-junction technology to full- and half-bridge topologies, Zero-Voltage Switching (ZVS) phase-shift converters, and applications and topologies generally that need a robust diode to handle dynamic dV/dt.
NFC Reader IC adopted for automotive wireless charging design
STMicroelectronics hasannounced that its automotive NFC Reader IC (ST25R3914) and its automotive 8-bit microcontroller (STM8AF) have been chosen for the Qi-compliant automotive wireless charging reference design from Rohm. Contactless communication based on NFC is already in extensive use for functions such as mobile payment by smartphone and in recent years, NFC use has been rapidly widening from mobile devices to industrial equipment, IoT devic...
Enabling creatively connected smart devices
By supporting concurrent communication over Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) and Sub-1GHz wireless, the STMicroelectronics STEVAL-FKI001V1 dual-radio development kit gives high flexibility to envision, build and connect IoT devices, such as smart sensors, finders and trackers which can be configured, updated, remotely monitored and tracked using various network topologies, protocols and services.
Latest solutions for smart driving displayed at AUTOMOTIVE WORLD
STMicroelectronics displayed its latest semiconductor solutions for smart driving at the 11thedition of the AUTOMOTIVE WORLD show in Tokyo, Japan. Building upon its broad range of automotive semiconductors, ST exhibited solutions that accelerate car digitalisation and electrification in autonomous driving, advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), and power control for electric and hybrid electric vehicles (EV/HEV).
Embedded devices neural-network developer toolbox
Leveraging the position of its STM32 family of microcontrollers, STMicroelectronics, a global semiconductor provider, has extended the associated STM32CubeMX ecosystem for product developers, adding advanced Artificial Intelligence (AI) features.
Low power MCU features analogue and DMA in low cost package
STMicroelectronics is boosting feature integration in low cost, low power 8-bit microcontrollers (MCUs) with the newSTM8L050. As the latest in the ultra energy-consciousSTM8Lseries, it embeds rich analogue peripherals, a DMA controller, and separated data EEPROM, all in an inexpensive SO-8 package with up to six user I/Os.
