ICs & Semiconductors
Battery management IC monitors can shrink final form factors
Charge and fuel gauge accuracy in a smaller solution size can be realised with the MAX17330 by Analog Devices. It includes AccuCharge technology with integrated fuel gauge and battery protection for one-cell lithium-ion/polymer batteries to extend battery runtimes.
NFC Type 2 tag IC has permanent write locks and configurable kill mode
Consumer engagement, production information and brand protection are offered with the ST25TN512 and ST25TN01K NFC Forum Type 2 tag ICs by STMicroelectronics. They can also be used for access control.
Compact barometric pressure sensor takes on temperature fluctuations
Rohm has developed a compact barometric pressure sensor that is waterproof and strong against temperature fluctuations and mechanical stress.
