Magnachip Unveils Its First 8th-Generation MXT LV MOSFET
Magnachip has introduced its proprietary Super-Short Channel FET II (SSCFET II) technology for the first time in the Company’s new 12V Dual N-channel MOSFET (MDWC12D024PERH). SSCFET II is Magnachip’s latest design technology that significantly reduces the channel length.
Ceva Bluetooth low energy IPs bring ultra-low power wireless connectivity
Ceva has announced that Alif Semiconductor has licensed and deployed the Ceva-Waves Bluetooth Low Energy and 802.15.4 IPs in its Balletto family of wireless microcontrollers.
The Balletto family is a complete Edge AI/ML microcontroller solution for connected IoT platforms with integrated Bluetooth Low Energy 5.3 and 802.15.4 wireless subsystem and a dedicated network co-processor, enabling connectivity and machine learning in a single chip. The Balletto family delivers up to 50x boost in machine learning performance and inference efficiency versus traditional MCUs that lack neural co-processors. The Ceva-Waves Bluetooth Low Energy IP provides Balletto MCUs with the robust connectivity at ultra-low power consumption, and supports Bluetooth LE Audio and Auracast broadcast audio, for customers who wish to leverage Balletto to create highly differentiated wireless audio products. The Balletto family also relies on Ceva-Waves 802.15.4 IP for Thread, Zigbee and Matter support in smart home applications.
