The LSM6DSV32X 6-axis inertial module (IMU) from ST has a large accelerometer full-scale range of 32g and 4000 degrees-per-second (dps) gyroscope to measure intensive movements and impacts, including freefall height estimation. Ready to drive future generations of edge-AI applications, the new sensor device enables extra features and longer battery runtime in consumer wearables, asset trackers, and impact and fall alarms for workers.

Rohm develops a new Op Amp that minimises current consumption
Rohm has developed a linear operational amplifier (op amp) – LMR1901YG-M – featuring the lowest* current consumption in the industry. This makes it ideal for amplifying sensor signals used to detect and measure temperature, flow rate, gas concentration, and other parameters in applications powered by internal sources (i.e. batteries).
Ceva launches multi-protocol wireless platform IP family to accelerate enhanced connectivity
Ceva has launched Ceva-Waves Links, a new family of multi-protocol wireless platform IPs. The integrated offering supports the latest wireless standards to address the surging demand for connectivity-rich chips targeting Smart Edge devices in the consumer IoT, Industrial, automotive, and personal computing markets. These IPs include Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Ultra-Wideband (UWB), and IEEE 802.15.4 (for Thread / Zigbee / Matter), to offer a range of qualified, easy-to-integrate, multi-protocol wireless communications subsystems, each featuring optimised co-existence schemes and adapted to various radios and configurations.
Microchip brings enhanced code protection and up to 15W of power delivery to its USB microcontroller portfolio
The well-known advantages of a Universal Serial Bus (USB) interface for embedded designs include its compatibility with various devices, streamlined communication protocol, in-field updatability and power delivery capabilities. To help easily incorporate this functionality into embedded systems, Microchip has launched the AVR DU family of microcontrollers (MCUs). As the next generation of Microchip 8-bit MCUs to integrate USB connectivity, the AVR DU family is designed to provide enhanced security features and higher power delivery than previous iterations.
