High-efficiency 5-GHz front-end modules work with draft 802.11ax carrier gateway spec
Qorvo announced that its high efficiency 5GHz front-end module (FEM)QPF4528 is part of a new, commercially available draft 802.11ax carrier gateway. The new gateway, which integrates Qualcomm Technologies, Inc.’s IPQ807x family of 802.11ax chipsets, provides up to four times higher wireless networking throughput and better performance in bandwidth-intensive applications than previously deployed carrier gateways. The […]
New Arduino boards include u-blox wireless technology
u-blox and Arduino introduced four new boards to their MKR family, delivering enhanced wireless connectivity options for IoT applications. Previously Arduino adopted u-blox for their MKR GSM 1400, now one of the most popular boards of the MKR family for its unique characteristics and robustness. Arduino introduced the MKR family and form factor to address […]
IEEE 1588 PTP clock designed with extensive port fan-out
Microsemi Corporation announced the launch of its TimeProvider 4100, a highly flexible IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol (PTP)grandmaster clock designed to scale from the edge to the aggregation layers of both mobile infrastructure and access networks. The TimeProvider 4100 is a gateway clock, a new class of synchronization product which accepts multiple inputs from Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS), Synchronous Ethernet […]
Multi-switch detection ICs consume 98% less system power than conventional discretes
Manufacturers, especially automotive manufacturers, are challenged to integrate more functionality while saving power and space. Texas Instruments today introduced two multi-switch detection interface (MSDI) devices that consume up to 98 percent less system power than conventional discrete solutions. The TIC12400 and TIC12400-Q1 are the first switch and sensor monitors that directly interface with resistor-coded switches. […]

Super Micro Computer, Inc. introduced a full suite of all-in-one solutions optimized for the growing Embedded Appliance, Intelligent Datacenter and Network Edge markets. Supermicro’s compact systems and motherboards optimized with the new Intel Atom C3000 (Denverton) SoC feature lower thermal and power requirements and can improve performance by 2.5X compared to the previous generation. Supermicro’s […]
PCIe in the embedded world
PCI Express (Peripheral Component Interconnect Express), also known as PCIe, is a high-speed serial bus standard that is better known in IT circles for use with personal computers and servers, but PCIe is used in embedded systems, as well. As the line between high-performance computing and embedded systems blurs, embedded systems require operating systems as […]
Specifying reliable network switching systems
Bryan Miller, MEN Micro From big data in the cloud to smaller data pieces in the fog (such as device-to-device), one of the more important pieces of hardware that moves data is the network switching system itself. Depending on where the data lives and where it needs to go, network requirements can vary greatly. Typical […]
