In part 1, we provided an overview of the product life cycle (PLC) and product development cycle (PDC), noting their distinct differences. In this second part, we will explain in detail the 12 steps of the product development cycle (PDC). Figure 1 shows the typical flow chart of a PDC management process and the 12 […]
STM32 processors consume less energy, provide higher memory density in low-pin-count packages
By adding the new STM32G0 microcontrollers (MCUs) to the STM32 family, STMicroelectronics is stretching the portfolio of top Arm Cortex-M-core MCUs to more thoroughly cover key embedded-market segments. The new G0 series targets entry-level applications that require greater energy efficiency, functionality, security, and value, in a smaller footprint. Extremely flexible packaging and memory options enable designers to do more […]
Tiny IoT-node development kit built around BLE 5.0 SoC with Arm Cortex-M0-core
BlueNRG-Tile is the core of a new all-in-one IoT-node development kit from STMicroelectronics. The very small tile/coin is built around ST’s BlueNRG-2 Bluetooth low energy 5.0 single-mode system-on-chip (SoC) that provides control and processing power to a full complement of sensors, while also communicating via Bluetooth with a free iOS or Android demo app on a […]
Teardown: Inside the PlayStation 4 game box
We take a look at the venerable Sony game box with an eye toward power handling and architecture. Chances are that if you’re a gamer, you’re experiencing your video games on a Sony PlayStation 4. To date, over 75 million PlayStation 4 boxes have sold. The closest competitor is the Xbox One (36.03 million) and […]
Satellite-nav receiver module gets Flash upgrade for easier app development
STMicroelectronics is making its Teseo III satellite-navigation receiver accessible to a wider designer community by introducing the Teseo-LIV3F module, which integrates essential features to speed application development and also adds up to 16Mbit of Flash memory for firmware updating or data logging without a backup battery. Highly regarded by experts in automotive and industrial sectors, […]
Expansion package added to free embedded software for LoRaWAN
With updates that implement the recently approved LoRaWAN 1.0.3 specifications from the LoRa-Alliance, STMicroelectronics is making its I-CUBE-LRWAN Expansion Package for the STM32 family of microcontrollers up-to-date and more secure, expanding the possibilities for Internet-of-Things (IoT) applications that operate on Low-Power Wide Area Networks (LPWAN). The I-CUBE-LRWAN expansion package consists of a set of libraries and application examples […]
MPUs target IoT apps with high-performance TFT-LCD controllers, graphic processors
The latest additions to the STM32* family, the STM32F7x0 and H7x0 Value Line microcontrollers (MCU) from STMicroelectronics, give extra flexibility to create affordable performance-oriented systems including real-time IoT devices, without compromising features or cyber protection. These new lines trim embedded Flash to the essential, still allowing secure boot, sensitive code and real-time routines to run safely on-chip, […]
eSIM chip loading with connection credentials
STMicroelectronics is now the first embedded SIM (eSIM) manufacturer to be accredited by the GSMA for loading eSIM chips with connection credentials such as certificates and operator profiles before shipping. The eSIMs, customized with connection credentials, enable smaller form factors, greater security, and increased flexibility. Chip-scale, permanently embedded, and electronically reprogrammable, eSIMs save space inside smartphones […]
NFC Tag Basics: How to use for programming automation
Near Field Communication (NFC) is a wireless communication technology that acts over short distances for two-way communication. The use of NFC tags is growing in several markets, including the medical, consumer, retail, industrial, automotive, and smart grid markets. NFC is a type of Radio-Frequency Identification (RFID) technology. When two NFC enabled devices are very close […]
Motor-driver board maximizes open-source 3D-printer performance
STMicroelectronics’ EVALSP820-XS motor-driver board brings ST’s industrial-control expertise to the RAMPS (RepRap Arduino Mega Pololu Shield) open-source 3D-printer platform, enabling 3D printer makers to unleash the full potential of their machines for faster printing and smoother surface finish. The RAMPS modular platform is making Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) 3D printing accessible to makers, small businesses, and home […]
