The 8-bit microcontroller remains a vital component in embedded design due to its power efficiency, adaptability, and ...

(RTTNews) - Microchip Technology (MCHP) Wednesday has introduced the AVR SD family of microcontrollers or MCUs to help engineers meet strict safety standards while reducing design costs and ...

ST has set the pace in ultra-low-power (ULP) MCUs with previous STM32 variants and is now taking ULP performance to a new level with the new STM32U3 series. Leveraging advanced power-saving chip ...

There are so many new cool MCUs coming out, and you want to play with all of them, but, initially, they tend to be accessible as bare chips. Devboards might be hard to get, not expose everything ...

Electronic System Level Design A system-on-chip is almost always built around one or more microcontroller(s) (MCUs), digital signal processing (DSP) core(s) or other software programmable element.

The integrated DC/DC optimizes power efficiency at high-speed operation, while an integrated LDO reduces overall system cost and design complexity. In addition, a 14-bit ADC consumes 375µA at 1MSPS.

But while the hardware is definitely interesting, the software side of things has been a little rocky compared to what we’ve come to expect from modern MCUs. Things should start looking up a bit ...

Based on an 80-MHz Arm Cortex M33 processor with TrustZone support, the new MCUs deliver an unmatched combination of performance, features and power savings that enable designers to address a ...

The small-form-factor MCUs have a rich set of peripherals—including ... field-hardened AI hardware and compiler design expertise for the IoT, and refined, in-house support of a broad base ...
