Adding to STMicroelectronics’ family of low power MEMS sensors for industrial applications, the ISM330DLC six-axis inertial measurement unit (IMU) is said to combine high accuracy and robustness with long-term availability assured by ST’s 10-year longevity programme.
ICs & Semiconductors
Microcontroller pair deliver longer lasting smart devices
Two microcontrollers released by STMicroelectronics offer low power performance for budget conscious consumer, industrial and medical applications.
Satellite navigation module saves bill of materials
No external components, except an antenna, are required with the MSB1054 multi-receiver global navigation satellite system (GNSS) module from Fujitsu Electronics Europe.
Proximity sensor has range of 200mm for VR/AR headsets
Combining ahigh power vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL), a photodiode, a signal processing IC, and a 12bit ADC in a single package, Vishay Intertechnology has developed the VCNL36687S to be used in smartphones, tablets, virtual reality/augmented reality (VR/AR) headsets, and other battery-operated devices.
