Matsushita Industries supplied the GM1 motion controller. These modules are combined into the GM1 motion controller, a space-saving "all-in-one" solution that reduces the amount of space taken up in the cabinet. The motion controller contains two separate Ethernet ports. The equipment is fully compatible with the integrated automation combination
In July, Samsung will set up a home-grown chip team of about 1,000 people to develop Exynos chips dedicated to the Galaxy S line, with the goal of commercializing the chipset and surpassing Apple Silicon by 2025.
This project grew out of the need to generate a linear crystal controlled ramp signal for the HP 8620C RF Sweep Oscillator. It was inspired by a previously released ramp generator design. There are two problems with this design: it uses a non-standard 16.384MHz crystal oscillator; its ramp has zero fall/return/blank times.
ST’s Embedded Design Agreement with Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft Azure is the latest advancement in the semiconductor industry’s push to securely connect Internet of Things (IoT) devices to the cloud.
MEMS sensors for mobile, smart industries, healthcare and retail have been revamped by combining two new features. Two new pressure sensors -- the LPS22DF and the waterproof LPS28DFW -- are part of the new generation of sensors that operate at 1.7 µA and have an absolute pressure accuracy of 0.5 hPa.
Onsemi has announced three products for USB power delivery designs. The NCP1345 is a quasi-resonant flyback controller for high performance offline power and USB Type-C PD quick charging applications. The NCP1623 is a small Boost PFC controller rated up to 300W for USB PD quick charging adapters and computing power supplies. The NCP4307 is a high-performance driver designed for use with synchronous rectifier MOSFEts in a variety of high-performance switching mode power topologies.
Allegro MicroSystems, Inc. offers two new full bridge door drivers for automotive and industrial applications. The A89505 and A89506 are excellent in automotive applications where both drives contain built-in current sensing capabilities, eliminating the need for external current sensing resistances and reducing the requirement for external components to a minimum of seven. Both can provide an absolute maximum supply voltage of 50V. Both devices have current limit detection flags that trigger when programmable current limits are reached
Diodes Incorporated introduced PCIe 3.0 packet switching ICs. The basic architecture of the device consists of two magnetic blocks, each with 8 ports and 16 channels, which enables it to support SERDES configuration options of 32 channels, ranging from two ports to 16 ports. Multiple DMA channels are embedded into the device to allow more efficient data communication between host/host and connected endpoints, advanced power management features allow significant power savings
Global chip prices have risen 10-20 per cent in the past year and are likely to continue to rise by 5-7 per cent this year.
Infineon Technologies AG extends the LITIX Power line with the dual-channel, standalone DC-DC controller TLD6098-2ES. As a multi-topology controller, it supports boost, buck, SEPIC, and flyback topologies with wide input voltage ranges from 4.5V to 60V and even 24V battery system applications.
