Silicon Labs has announced an Arm Cortex-M33 based family of secured wireless microcontrollers covering Matter, OpenThread, Zigbee and Bluetooth LE. Called xG26, it consists of MG26 devices for Matter, OpenThread and Zigbee, BG26 devices for Bluetooth LE and Bluetooth Mesh, and PG26 devices for the same processing power without wireless transceivers. “As users from consumer to industrial sectors extract more ...
Renesas is claiming “industry’s lowest overall power consumption for general purpose 32-bit MCUs” for its Arm Cortex-M23 based RA0 series. Consumption is 84.3μA/MHz and the company “offers a ‘software stand-by’ mode that reduces power consumption by a further 99% to 0.2 µA”, it said. Wake from this mode is in 4.6μs or less if the internal 32MHz oscillator is used. ...
Microchip has created an AVR microcontroller series with 12Mbit/s USB 2.0 and code protection. “As the next generation of Microchip 8-bit MCUs to integrate USB connectivity, the AVR DU family is designed to provide enhanced security features,” said the company. Protection comes from permanently disabling write capability within the programming and debug interface after initial programming, and handing over update ...
Arm has announced its most powerful microcontroller-grade neural processor, which will reach 4Top/s in its maximum configuration and is 20% more power efficient that its previous neural processors. Named Ethos-U85 and configurable with between 128 and 2,048 MACs, it is intended to have enough performance to locally run heavy AI algorithms such as ‘transformers’, as well as convolutional neural networks. ...
Automation and AI will be in evidence at this year’s show, writes Caroline Haye. It is not as common as it once was for companies to launch products at exhibitions, but Renesas is launching a new, low-power microcontroller series at the show. It will also be showcasing its RZ/V2H microprocessor with new AI technology. Renesas: Hall 1-234 Silicon Labs will ...
One to note if you are heading to Nuremberg for Embedded World next week - DigiKey will be running its Great Board Giveaway promotion at the show.
Embedded World is the meeting place for the global embedded community, with exhibitors operating in the medical, automotive and mil-aero sectors, exhibitor forums and expert panels. All areas of embedded system design are represented, from hardware and software to modules, services and tools. Specialty areas at the trade fair and in the conference sessions focus on current trends, such as ...
