Key factors to consider when choosing a microcontroller
When designing an embedded system with an MCU, which one should you pick? This guide provides you with a quick overview to help you narrow down your choices. A microcontroller (MCU), is the smallest and most basic computer. Running on a single chip, it has a CPU, memories (RAM and ROM), and interfaces (input/output ports) […]
MEMS chip combines accelerometer with high-accuracy temperature sensor
The STMicroelectronics LIS2DTW12 combines a MEMS 3-axis accelerometer and a temperature sensor on a single die for use in space-constrained and battery-sensitive detectors such as shipping trackers, wearables, and IoT endpoints. The sensing accuracy of 0.8°C offers precision comparable with stand-alone standard temperature sensors. In addition to enhanced temperature compensation, leveraging the sensor’s superior accuracy, the accelerometer […]
GUI for advanced inertial measurement units simplifies custom motion-sensing designs
STMicroelectronics’ Unico GUI greatly simplifies configuring the finite state machine and machine learning core (FSM and MLC) logic of its latest Inertial Measurement Units (IMU), including the recently announced LSM6DSO and LSM6DSOX 6-axis modules. The FSM logic lets users run gesture and motion-recognition algorithms directly in the sensor for always-on convenience and low power consumption. The MLC […]
