Less bullet-proof than you think: Gauging security hazards on the IoT

April 17, 2019 By Lee Teschler Leave a Comment

Engineers developing products for the IoT need to plan security measures that grow more sophisticated over time to thwart attackers who get better at wreaking havoc. Lars Lydersen, Silicon Labs Skepticism about Internet of Things (IoT) security seems to be high. Ironically, for many industries, the key to not being hacked is simply to not […]

An intuitive view of Maxwell’s equations

January 17, 2019 By Aimee Kalnoskas Leave a Comment

by Asem Elshimi, Design Engineer, Silicon Labs “From a long view of the history of mankind, seen from, say, ten thousand years from now, there can be little doubt that the most significant event of the 19th century will be judged as Maxwell’s discovery of the laws of electrodynamics. The American Civil War will pale into […]

Blood oxygen meters, Part 1: Background and principles

November 8, 2018 By Bill Schweber Leave a Comment

It is now trivial and non-invasive to measure blood-oxygen saturation SpO2, thanks to LEDs, algorithms, and ICs for pulse oximetry — and it’s a very long way from having to draw blood and send it out for assessment. Just a few decades ago, determining the vital medical parameter known as blood oxygen level — formally […]

Advances in Power over Ethernet ICs

July 26, 2018 By Lee Teschler Leave a Comment

Sil Labs PoE

Power-over-Ethernet specs have changed over the years — PoE devices have gotten more powerful, and so Ethernet cables are starting to become more like a power line. Silicon Labs’ John Wilson recently did a short video with us about four new power device ICs built with higher PoE power levels in mind. John reviewed demonstrations […]
