IAR Systems has extended its build tools portfolio and now supports deployment in Linux-based frameworks Renesas’ low-power RL78 MCUs, enabling organisations to streamline building and testing workflows.
Automotive-qualified, single-chip solution for ultrawide touch displays Microchip Technology has announced its maXTouch MXT2912TD-UW touchscreen controller, a single-chip solution for ultrawide touch displays.
It is able to address display sizes up to 45 inches with a very wide aspect ratio, supporting liquid-crystal display (LCD) and organic light emitting diode (OLED) display technologies.
The MXT2912TD-UW reduces the need for multiple touch controllers within a vehicleâs human machine interface (HMI) display. This single-chip touch controller provides, what is claimed to be, the highest report rate for wide displays and is independent of the display resolution, helping achieve the same user experience that has become accustomed with the smart phone.
Mouser has signed a global distribution agreement with QuickLogic, a developer of embedded FPGA IP; ultra-low-power, multi-core, voice-enabled systems-on-chips (SoCs); and endpoint artificial intelligence (AI) solutions.
Panthronics demo kit enables NFC reader functionality on Synergy MCU platforms Panthronics has announced an extension of the evaluation kit for its PTX100R NFC Reader IC helping to accelerate development of NFC applications on the Renesas Synergy family of 32-bit microcontrollers
Panthronics, a fabless semiconductor company specializing in high performance wireless technology, has developed an IoT NFC Reader application to run on the Synergy TB-S3A1, a development board for the Synergy S3A1 series of microcontrollers which are based on a 48MHz Arm Cortex-M4 core.
NFC physical and protocol layer operations are performed on a Panthronics PTX100R Evalboard, which connects to the TB-S3A1 board via its Pmod header. The application provides full NFC reader functionality conforming to the standard ISO 14443A/B/F/V specifications.
