Digital image sensor combines 2D and 3D
ON Semiconductor announces the AR0430 CMOS digital image sensor, available from Framos. It combines 2D video imaging and 3D image recognition on a single sensor.
Magnetic sensors combine with compass ASIC
A three-axis magnetometer combines a sensitive tunnel magnetoresistive (TMR) element developed by TDK and an advanced electronic compass ASIC designed by AKM in a small package, measuring just 1.6 x 1.6 x 0.6mm. It is claimed to have the industry’s lowest RMS noise of just 40 nT-rms and a low current consumption of only 40-micro A at an output data rate of 100Hz.
