Texas Instruments introduced a microcontroller with an integrated LCD controller. Based on MSP430 ultra-low power MCU core, the AFE4110 delivers a combination of 16-bit processing power, built-in LCD driver, low power and low cost, while operating on a single 1.5-V battery. The device features ...

Freescale Semiconductor announced a solution that combines gesture recognition on resistive screen technology and capacitive touch sensing in a single integrated circuit. This addition to the Xtrinsic sensing portfolio is ideal for applications involving control panels, human machine interface (HMI...

Renesas Electronics announced the development of a reference board that can be used as an IP network–compatible High Definition set-top box (STB) solution. The board adds cloud features to non connected TVs, enabling multi-room content distribution (home content distribution). It supports Full-HD qu...

XP Power announced additions to its LDU series of PCB mount DC input constant current LED drivers. Comprising four models offering power outputs of 5, 7, 14 and 20W, these LED drivers have a typical efficiency of 93% for the 5 – 14 Watt models and 95% for the 20 Watt devices. The LDU20 series provid...

Kemet has introduced its ArcShield capacitor technology for use in high voltage applications susceptible to surface arcing (arc-over discharge). Surface arcing is generally caused by a high voltage gradient between the MLCC’s termination surfaces or between one termination surface and the componen...

Lantiq announced first customer shipments of its VINAX IVE1000 System-Level Vectoring Engine chip. Noise cancellation technologies – standardized in G.vector – eliminate crosstalk, but only system-level vectoring solutions, like the Lantiq vectoring engine device, more than double data rates and rea...
