MCU controls two motors for use in A/C, e-bikes
Nuvoton Technology launched its KM1M4BF series MCU and KM1M7AF/KM1M7BF series MCUs designed for motor and power control in wide-ranging consumer, enterprise, and industrial applications, such as air conditioning, heat pumps, white goods, tools, e-bikes, EV charging, solar inverters, energy storage, and power supplies. The new MCU series is designed to improve energy efficiency beyond current […]
What are the five types of quantum computers?
There are several ways to make the quantum bits (qubits) that comprise quantum computers. The classic image of the “chandelier” descending into a cryostat only represents qubits that need to operate near 0 Kelvin (K). They are used by IBM, Google, and others, but those pictures present a very limited view of quantum computing. This […]
Post-quantum crypto standardization — what’s next?
Analysis and possible pushback from users may be among the next steps in the development of post-quantum cryptography (PQC) by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). NIST has started the process of standardizing the four finalist algorithms. That’s the last step before developing the mathematical tools and making the tools available so developers […]
SBC delivers AI edge computing and graphics in small form factor
AMETEK Abaco Systems new SBC3902 single board computer (SBC) is designed with the world’s most powerful AI Edge computer, melding autonomous and embedded Edge Computing systems and real-time GPU processing in a small 3U VPX form factor. Aligned with Sensor Open System Architecture (SOSA) slot profile 14.2.16, the 3U VPX IO Intensive computing card offers […]
Post-quantum crypto standardization — where we are
Post quantum cryptography (PQC) standardization is a program being run by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). It began in 2016, and by the end of 2017, NIST had received 82 submissions, of which 69 were accepted for further consideration. Through successive rounds of elimination, the number of proposals dropped from 69 to […]

The Falcon Lite’s modular PCIe form factor provides a flexible solution for solution providers looking to accelerate edge AI workloads with deployment flexibility and power efficiency. The Lanner Falcon Lite PCIe AI Acceleration Card is designed to meet the soaring demand for […]
What’s quantum control and how is it used?
Quantum control has several uses. Its primary use is to prevent the performance degradation of quantum computers as a result of the decoherence of qubits. It’s also an important function in the field of quantum sensing; for information on that application, see the FAQ on “What’s a quantum sensor?” This FAQ reviews the current status […]
