Intel Quark Microcontroller: x86 right for IoT
by Bill Giovino, Mouser Electronics It seems that every semiconductor company has a microcontroller solution for the Internet of Things (IoT) today. We are seeing specs for low power, high performance, and high integration microcontrollers from the usual core suppliers. But when Intel announced that it was re-entering the microcontroller business with a 32-bit x86 […]
Super-low-power PIC processors have 500 nA sleep mode
Microchip Technology Inc. today announced the company’s lowest power and most cost-effective family of 32-bit PIC32 microcontrollers (MCUs). The Microchip PIC32MM family bridges the gap between the company’s popular PIC24F XLP and PIC32MX families. The new family is the first PIC32 to feature core independent peripherals, designed to offload the CPU for lower power and […]
