Smart watches and wearables are often used in harsh environments and its features like motion and activity tracking request highest precision, fast read-out and low power consumption. For accurate elevation gain, vertical speed and motion detection, they integrate barometric pressure sensors. The new DPS368 is ideal for these applications as it saves up to 80% space compared to other waterproof pressure...
The first development kit developed by Rutronik, the RUTDevKit-STM32L5, is a complete solution for AI-based applications running on an MCU platform. It enables hardware and firmware developers to deliver proof-of-concepts within a short space of time. The focus here is firmly on security and data protection, short latency periods, low energy consumption and adequate storage resources.
Industrial PCs (IPC) and mobile devices are used in automation technology for a wide range of applications. In the age of Industry 4.0, the networking of all components continues to increase. This also applies to IPCs that have to be connected to different field devices. Given the large number of existing industrial networks, this is a major challenge, but manufacturers of IPCs, edge gateways or operator...
Smart microelectronics from Infineon help meet thermal management challenges and increase the efficiency of cooling and HVAC systems. Modern vehicles increasingly rely on microelectronic components. This applies in particular to powertrain applications like electric pumps, including fuel, oil and water pumps, and fans such as HVAC blowers, engine cooling and battery cooling fans. Due to their proximity to...
In modern highly compacted electronic devices, safety in operation is increasingly threatened by excessively high temperatures. As a rule, thermal fuses are used to counter this risk. But only in combination with a shunt resistor is it possible to provide a fail-proof protection.
