San Francisco-based Particle has announced an octa-core Raspberry-Pi shaped single-board computer built around a Qualcomm Snapdragon Kryo CPU with 12Top/s neural processing capability, and equipped with 5G and Wi-Fi 6E comms. Called Tachyon, and aimed at AI edge processing, it is designed to run Ubuntu across its four 1.9GHz Arm cores, three 2.4GHz cores and single 2.7GHz core. Particle describes ...

Dr. Ali Sadri considers how some of the limitations for 5G performance can be overcome, for example via RIS and in-building wireless coverage. With the rollout of 5G continuing to cause issues around the globe, some people would argue that it’s not yet living up to the hype. So what’s needed to unlock its potential? Dr. Ali Sadri, CTO of ...

Binder is adding an M8 12-pin circular connector to its industrial portfolio. Featuring 12 pins on the compact M8 connector face, the connectors are aimed at projects requiring miniaturisation. Applications suggested by binder include industrial sensor technology, measurement and control, in camera technology and robotics. Miniaturisation “The future of automation lies, among other things, in miniaturization, for which we are ...

CUI Devices has added tweeters to its range of loudspeakers. Called the CTW range, there are six tweeters, measuring from 30.5 x 30.5mm to 58.8 x 58.8 mm, and between 13.5 to 24mm from front to back. Oval, rectangular and round frame shapes are available, some with ferrite magnets and others with neodymium types, with cones of and paper, polyester ...

Microchip Technology has announced a 32bit 200MHz version of its dsPIC33 series of DSP-heavy MCUs. dsPIC33A, as the family will be called, is aimed at fast closed-loop control of PSUs and motors. As with earlier dsPIC processors, the parts remain a combination of CPU and maths accelerator (‘DSP engine’), rather than a pure DSP architecture. In this fifth generation, the ...

It has also announced the Tria Technologies business group which will also include its compute design and manufacturing capabilities. Tria Technologies will support OEMs with design either from scratch or using off-the-shelf products and will also make custom designs. Tria will be ...

The increased complexity of semiconductor designs that need validating is a problem for simulators, says Pradeep Thiagarajan, principal product manager for custom IC verification, introducing Siemens’ Solido Simulation Suite software (Solido Sim). The suite has three new simulators: Solido SPICE, Solido Fast SPICE and Solido LibSPICE software, together with the company’s AFS platform, ELDO software and Symphony software. Solido Sim ...

Three bench oscilloscopes by Siglent, the SDS800X HD, SDS1000X HD and SDS3000X HD are now available from Telonic Instruments. The high-resolution oscilloscopes address signal fidelity, visualisation, and analysis with 12-bit ADCs, low noise, gain accuracy, and channel isolation, said the company. Bandwidths range from 70MHz to 4GHz, providing signal fidelity for a range of applications including power, EMI, frequency analysis, ...
