The Renesas Electronics Corporation has announced the ISL70005SEH, a synchronous buck and low dropout (LDO) regulators for low-power FPGAs, DDR memory and other digital loads for spaceflight payload applications. The ISL70005SEH is a point-of-load (POL) power solution that reduces size, weight, and power (SWaP) by integrating a synch buck and LDO in a single monolithic IC.…
Pushing the wearable technology products from just wristwatches and bands, a new circular ring-like device called ‘Circular Smart Ring' is all set to meet the market. This new ring is a 24/7 activity, sleep, and wellness monitoring device that is specifically designed to keep track of day-to-day activities and get personal recommendations. The sleek and seamlessly designed…
Diodes Incorporated has released the AP43771 USB Type-C power delivery (PD) controller for high power USB solutions, the new controller also features an embedded microcontroller with a one-time programmable memory. AP43771 forms the basis of offline chargers that supports Quick Charge with extremely low standby power consumption. It provides 18W output power when combined…
Vishay Intertechnology adds two new RGBC-IR sensors to their optoelectronics portfolio. The VEML3328 (top-looking) and VEML3328SL (side-looking) offer better linearity and higher sensitivity compared to the previous generation device, and it also adds the new features including an infrared (IR) channel. These sensors can sense red, green, blue, clear, and IR light by…
The Arduino development team has announced its new Integrated Development Environment (IDE), Arduino 1.8.11. The new IDE now provides improved support for MAC OS X, by strictly following the OS X latest recommended security guidelines. Also, in this new release, the serial plotter gets a “send text” button allowing the user to send serial data to the board even while…
Panasonic Industry has launched a new Bluetooth 5.0 Low Energy module called PAN1780 based on the Nordic nRF52840 SoC single-chip controller. The module is powered by a Cortex M4F Processor, with 256kB RAM and 1MB Flash memory, it also has a high sensitivity and output power of +8 dBm making it suitable for long-range applications. Furthermore, the module can broadcast a…
Marcel Schuck a researcher at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich (ETH Zurich) is working on the development of a no-touch robotic gripper that can grip small and fragile objects without touching them using pressure points in Ultrasonic Sound Waves. Conventional robotic grippers are made of soft, rubber-like materials that are prone to damaging fragile…
