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.
LDO extends portable devices’ battery life
Prolonging battery life by up to four times longer than traditional low quiescent (Iq) LDOs, the MCP1811 is a linear low dropout (LDO) regulator available from Microchip. It enables reduced standby power consumption in remote, battery-powered sensor nodes and also enables faster response times and transient response for IoT, wearable and remote designs, says Microchip.
Sensor has 1.65mm profile for versatile integration
With a profile of only 1.65mm, the 3DC14EM-ULP is a 3DCoil electro-magnetic sensor and is ready to integrate in smartphones, key-fobs, smartcard-key-fob, and wearable devices, says Premo.
