On-chip thermal sensor takes up 7x less IC space
Moortec announced an addition to its deeply embedded monitoring portfolio, the Distributed Thermal Sensor (DTS) on TSMC N5 process technology. Moortec’s highly granular DTS offers a 7x area reduction in comparison to some standard in-chip thermal sensor solutions, and also supports high accuracy measurement across a wide temperature range at enhanced conversion speeds. With over […]
Sensor platform uses AI for smart odor sensing in ventilation systems
Renesas Electronics Corporation expanded its popular ZMOD4410 Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) sensor platform with the power of embedded artificial intelligence (e-AI), enabling smart odor sensing for ventilation systems, bathroom monitoring and controls, and air quality monitors. The enhanced platform combines neural network-trained firmware on various microcontrollers (MCUs), such as the Renesas RL78 MCU, to provide higher resolution measurement […]
Video: Lab equipment for students, working from home in Seattle
Imagine being a university student studying EE/ECE, physics, chemistry, biology, or other sciences and not having access to your lab equipment. What will you do, sitting there bored at home because your university is closed? Digilent, a company that serves the academic market with measurement and FPGA tools for students, has lowered its prices on […]

Greene Tweed, a global manufacturer of high-performance seals, thermoplastics, composites, and engineered components, highlights its innovative Arlon 3000 XT thermoplastic for electronics applications in this brief video. Arlon 3000 XT provides excellent thermal stability and chemical resistance, very low moisture absorption, remarkably low wear, and high impact resistance. Arlon 3000 XT, the world’s first and […]
NVIDIA’s VP and GM of Autonomous Machines Deepu Talla kicks off keynotes at 2019 Robotics Summit
The 2019 Robotics Summit in Boston on June 5th and 6th is a premier robotics event focused on the design, development, manufacture, and delivery of commercial robotics. The Summit is co-located with the DeviceTalks event at the Seaport World Trade Center. Critical technical challenges remain when designing electronics for robotics systems particularly in the context of […]
Solid-state temperature sensing, Part 2 – application
In Part 1, we looked at the basic principle and function of the solid-state temperature sensors, as well as the first widely available model, the AD590. Part 2 looks at some application considerations. Q: What are the interface considerations? A: A basic solid-state sensor has a PTAT current-only output. This means that the subsequent circuitry, […]
CMOS image sensor works well in both low and bright-light conditions
ON Semiconductor has introduced a new 1/4-inch, 1.0 Megapixel (Mp) (1280H x 800V) CMOS digital image sensor that captures clean, accurate images with no artifacts in both bright and low light conditions. Its high shutter efficiency and signal-to-noise ratio minimize ghosting and noise effects improving overall image quality. The 3.0 μm pixel AR0144 incorporates an innovative global shutter design that […]
Thermal imaging sensor aids in characterizing critical production equipment
Fluke Corp. has expanded the capabilities of its Condition Monitoring system to include thermal monitoring with the addition of the new Fluke® 3550 FC Thermal Imaging Sensor. Maintenance managers can now collect a more comprehensive variety of key-indicator data — thermal imaging, voltage, current, temperature, and power — on critical equipment to build a real-time […]
