What can designers make with Matter?
Matter enables designers to develop smart home accessories that work across all major wireless platforms. Mesh functions are possible because Matter operates as an application layer on top of technologies like Ethernet, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Thread. Matter aims to simplify the setup and use of compatible smart home devices and bring some level of interoperability […]
Serializer/deserializer ICs simplify use of multiple automotive displays
ROHM Semiconductor announced new full-HD compatible (1980 x 1080 pixels) SerDes ICs (serializer: BU18TL82-M; deserializer: BU18RL82-M) optimized for multi-screen vehicle displays. Unlike typical SerDes ICs that must be connected in pairs for each video transmission, ROHM’s new BU18RL82-M deserializer can be daisy-chained to enable video transmission over multiple routes using just a single serializer. Reducing the number […]
Cortex-M4 MCUs sport built-in op amps for motor control tasks
ARTERY Technology launched the brand-new AT32F4212 series value-line Cortex-M4 MCUs that are designed with dual built-in operating amplifiers (OPA) based on AT32F421 MCUs to effectively simplify circuit design and save material cost.
