Embedded World: Click board offers LTE-M and NB-IoT comms
Mikroe has introduced a dual-mode LTE-M and NB-IoT tranceiver in its ‘Click’ board circuit prototyping format. Called ‘LTE IoT 10 Click’, it is built around Sequans’ Monarch GM02S IC, which supports global 617MHz to 2.2GHz operation. The board is 3GPP LTE Release 14 compliant, and can be upgraded to Release 17, according to Mikroe. Transmission is at up to +23dBm, ...
Embedded World: Inductive touch-on-metal sensing for Infineon MCUs
Infineon has augmented touch sensing and liquid level sensing it a new series of MCUs. Devices in the 4000T family have hardware and software to implement: enhanced capacitive touch sensing, inductive touch sensing and capacitive liquid sensing. “Developers now have endless possibilities to develop new HMI and sensing solutions, from sleek metallic designs with touch-on-metal buttons, to waterproof touch-buttons and ...
VITA 100 unveiled as “new era for embedded standards”
The VITA 100 standard will build on VPX’s legacy but “leapfrog” to meet increased processing and power demands. Providing a progress update, VITA 100 chair Steve Devore (pictured), described it is a continuation of VPX, supporting evolving power and data processing demands. One requirement is to double the density of today’s VPX connectors while maintaining the maximum current connector length. ...
Six accelerometers in sports IMU (and three gyros)
ST has integrated six accelerometers into a 2.5 x 3mm inertial measurement unit for sports wearables. “Capable of measuring events ranging from slight movements to intense impacts with equal accuracy,” said ST. The “low-g sensor provides high accuracy with limited range [and the] high-g sensor offers an extended range with less accuracy”. Packaged in a 0.86mm thick LGA and called ...
Embedded World: Percepio Detect seeks observability of embedded systems
Percepio, the Swedish maker of Tracealyzer, has released Percepio Detect, a tool to increase observability of embedded code and Edge devices during system testing. Percepio Detect Optimised for use during testing of RTOS-based systems, it’s aimed at embedded software developers and supports the testing and debugging of embedded code. Specifically, supporting Continuous Integration and Continuous Testing (CI/CT) processes. “While cloud-native ...
Google exposes camera effects in Android 16 second beta
Google is releasing the second beta of Android 16, the latest version of its mobile operating system. Aimed at developers, and not consumers, it includes a number of updates. These range from camera updates, custom graphical effects with AGSL (Android Graphics Shading Language), and motion capture, to font API changes, live wallpapers, and APIs in the ADPF (Android Dynamic Performance ...
Synopsys expands HAV to address complex chip design
Synopsys has added the HAPS-200 prototyping and ZeBu-200 emulation system to its hardware-assisted verification (HAV) portfolio. Both the HAPs-200 and ZeBu-200 are based on the AMD Versal Premium VP1902 adaptive SoC and built on the company’s emulation and prototyping, or EP-Ready, hardware for use with reconfiguration and optimisation software. ZeBu Server 5 delivers scalability beyond 60bn gates, to target large ...
Embedded World: Sine/cosine to digital interpolation IC for positioning
iC-Haus has created a high-speed sine-to-digital signal conditioning interpolation IC for magnetic or optical position sensors. “Linear scales and angular sensors can benefit from higher resolution and accuracy, enabling an outstanding measurement precision, a faster motion speed or an improved control quality for drives,” claimed the company. By combining analogue and digital processing, the IC, called iC-NQE, takes in analogue ...
