Sensor options expand for extreme low-level light imaging
ON Semiconductor has announced the latest additions to its portfolio of Interline Transfer Electron Multiplying CCD (IT‑EMCCD) image sensors that target extreme low-light applications such as medical and scientific imaging, as well as commercial and military applications for high-end surveillance. The new KAE-08152 shares the same 8.8-megapixel resolution and 4/3 optical format as the existing KAE-08151, but incorporates an enhanced pixel […]
RF basestation module for next-gen medical networks strengthens comm links, preserves battery power
Radio frequency technology is increasingly being used in a wide variety of medical implantable applications, including cardiac care, physiological monitoring (e.g., insulin monitoring), pain management and obesity treatments. According to a recent report from P&S Research, the market for active implantable devices, which includes pacemakers, defibrillators and neurostimulators, is expected to grow at an eight […]
C/C++ Compiler now integrated into Eclipse-based e² studio IDE
Renesas Electronics Corporation announced an enhancement to its e² studio integrated development environment (IDE) tool for the Renesas Synergy Platform. Through its ongoing partnership with IAR Systems, the leading embedded development tools supplier, Renesas Synergy customers can now enjoy significant performance benefits by integrating IAR Systems’ advanced IAR C/C++ Compiler into the Eclipse-based e² studio […]
FPGA development board for PolarFire designs
Microsemi Corporation and Future Electronics announced the availability of the Avalanche board featuring a Microsemi PolarFire non-volatile field programmable gate array (FPGA). As the lowest cost entry development board available today for designing with Microsemi’s lowest power, cost-optimized mid-range PolarFire FPGAs, Future’s Avalanche board lowers the barrier to entry for PolarFire FPGAs and helps expand Microsemi’s market opportunities for the device. The […]
FPGA maker board available through Digi-Key
Microsemi has teamed up with Digi-Key Electronics, a global electronic components distributor, to provide the SmartFusion 2 system-on-chip (SoC) field programmable gate array (FPGA) maker board exclusively to Digi-Key’s global customer base. This low-cost evaluation platform lowers the barrier for hardware and firmware engineers to develop embedded applications for the ARM Cortex-M3 and 12K logic elements (LE) FPGA fabric […]
