Albert van Dalen writes on avdweb about making a tiny development board in a DIL24 format containing a Microchip/Atmel ATtiny3217 microcontroller. The Dily3217 is an Arduino compatible development board of 30x10mm, easy to integrate since it has a breadboard-friendly narrow DIL24...

NVE Corporation expanded its line of angle sensors with the new ASR012-10E Smart I²C TMR Angle Sensor. The ASR012 is based on the same TMR sensor element and digital processing core as the ASR002, but with an Inter-Integrated Circuit (I²C) rather than a Serial Peripheral Interface...

VersaLogic Corporation added a new model to its "Swordtail" product family, the latest in their line of Arm-based embedded computers, the EPC- 2702, available with either the NXP i.MX6 Quad (quad core), or the i.MX6 DualLite (dual core) processors. The Swordtail includes on-board...

Analog Devices announced the release of a new synchronous step-down regulator, LT8648S, that features second generation Silent Switcher architecture designed to minimize EMI emissions while delivering high efficiency at high switching frequencies. This includes the integration of input...

The STUSB4500L from STMicroelectronics is a small-footprint addition to the Company’s USB-C controller IC family designed and certified for pure 5 V sink-only applications. All mandatory features to use the USB-C connector as a 5 V universal power plug are integrated, allowing...

A reference design kit (RDK-839) containing a 12W ac-dc power supply for appliances, meters or other industrial applications is now available from Power Integrations. In addition to a functioning supply, it includes a bare board and additional devices that will easily allow a similar...

CUI’s DC-DC converters are housed in low-profile DIP or SMT packages Outputting up to 10 W of continuous power, CUI’s range of open-frame and encapsulated PYBJ10 isolated DC-DC converters deliver a 4:1 input voltage range and up to 88% efficiency. Ideal for convection-cooled...

Researchers at the University of Michigan say they have developed a small, inexpensive, and highly accurate gyroscope that could help drones and autonomous cars stay on track without a GPS signal. The ultra-high-precision MEMS gyroscope - called the birdbath resonator gyroscope - is...
