Digi International has been demonstrating new products – for edge-to-cloud systems – from its Digi ConnectCore and Digi XBee portfolios at Electronica. The IoT connectivity specialist highlights its Digi ConnectCore 91/93 system-on-module and Digi XBee 3 Global LTE Cat 4 smart modem. ConnectCore 91/93 The Digi ConnectCore 91/93 system-on-module (pictured above) is based in the NXP i.MX 91/93 processor. This ...

ScioSense has launched a two-channel time-to-digital converter for lidar distance measurement. LTDC-X3, as it will be known, offers single-shot resolution of up to 20ps(rms). The chip has one ‘start’ input and two ‘stop’ inputs, and calculates the time differences between the start channel and the stop channels. “In typical lidar designs, the start will be triggered by the laser trigger, ...

Rohde & Schwarz revealed a second-generation if its entry level oscilloscope with two or four channels, and bandwidth options of 70, 100, 200 or 300MHz. Guide price for the 70MHz two channel model is €1,690. RTB 2 is an an evolution of the 2017 RTB2000, keeping the touchscreen and 10bit vertical resolution, and adding an arbitrary waveform generator and 160Mpoint ...

Nexperia has introduced a 110V 4A half-bridge gate driver IC. “NGD4300 has been designed for use with dc-dc converters in consumer devices, servers and telecommunications equipment as well as for micro-inverters used in various industrial applications,” according to the company, which is also producing an automotive-qualified version: NGD4300-Q100 for power steering, for example. 4A is the peak sourcing current, and ...

Arduino announced a single-pair Ethernet adapter board for its Uno R4 single-board microcontroller at Electronica this morning. Microchip participated in the development – its LAN8651B1T-E/LMX single pair Ethernet MAC-PHY – an automotive-qualified part – is used, it said. Single-pair Ethernet is a communication standard that combines data and power on one unshielded twisted pair, for industrial installations over exiting and ...

ST’s STGAP3S family of gate drivers for SiC and IGBT power switches combines ST’s latest galvanic isolation technology with optimised desaturation protection and flexible Miller-clamp architecture. Featuring reinforced capacitive galvanic isolation between the gate-driving channel and the low-voltage control and interface circuitry, the STGAP3S withstands 9.6kV transient isolation voltage (VIOTM) with 200V/ns common-mode transient immunity (CMTI). Its isolation enhances reliability in motor ...

Texas Instruments has introduced two series of real-time microcontrollers in the run-up to Electronica today. F29H85x series is built on the company’s 64bit C29 DSP core and has an architecture designed with safety and security in mind. “Featuring diagnostics and error-checking mechanisms, the F29H85x series was engineered for compliance with ISO  26262 and IEC 61508 automotive and industrial safety standards, ...

Onsemi has installed a 65nm BCD (bipolar CMOS DMOS) process at its fab in East Fishkill, New York, on a line that can handle 300mm wafers. Called ‘Treo Platform’ it can produce ICs with rail voltage from 1V to 90V, and that work up to 175°C. “This provides the foundation for a range of power and sensing solutions,” according to the ...

PC oscilloscope maker Pico Technology has upgraded power measurement in its companion analysis software to include crest factor, dc power, area at ac and area at dc – with net, positive, negative and absolute variants. These are included in its latest stable release (7.1.39) of PicoScope in all three versions, for: Windows, Linux or MacOS. Other enhancements include: 10BASE-T1S decode ...
