From wearables to smart lighting, voice control is increasingly becoming consumers’ preferred way to interact with electronics. As developers build products of various sizes and designs to meet consumer demand, they often have trouble scaling to meet different Bill of Materials (BOM) and form factor requirements in end applications. Microchip Technology Inc., via its Microsemi […]

New single-chip controllers enable 20-in automotive touchscreens
Even as touchscreen displays in the car grow larger, drivers expect screens to operate with the same touch experience as mobile phones. However, screens in automobiles need to meet stringent head impact and vibration tests, and consequently, have thicker cover lenses that potentially impact the touch interface performance. As screens get larger, they are also […]

What is DICE architecture?
DICE stands for Device Identifier Composition Engine, and it is a security standard created by the Trusted Computing Group (TCG) which has been addressing security issues for years. TCG announced the establishment of DICE Architecture, or DICE Architecture Work Group to address the need for increased security in the Internet of Things (IoT) therefore targeting […]
Dual-core digital signal controller
System developers designing high-end embedded control applications can benefit from a new Digital Signal Controller (DSC) with two dsPIC DSC cores in a single chip, now available from Microchip Technology Inc. The dsPIC33CH has one core that is designed to function as a master while the other is designed as a slave. The slave core is useful for […]
Cryptography-enabled MCU supports DICE security standard
As the Internet of Things (IoT) accelerates and internet connectivity is deployed into virtually every industrial segment, security threats are escalating in quantity and scale. These threats can ruin the reputation of those attacked, impact company financials and allow intellectual property to be stolen or destroyed. While cryptography can be used to secure these connected […]
