Microchip has introduced the PAC1921 a new combined analogue and digital current sensor. The device is the world’s first high-side current sensor with both a digital output, as well as a configurable analogue output that can present power, current or voltage over the single output pin, says the company.
Microchip has unveiled the first USB3.0 Smart Hubs that enable host and device port swapping, I/O bridging, and various other serial communication interfaces. The USB5734 and USB5744 feature an integrated microcontroller that enables new functionality for USB hubs while lowering overall BOM costs and reducing software complexity.
Microchip has announced that the Volvo Car Group has migrated from MOST25 to the latest MOST150 standard in its all-new Volvo XC90 model, using Microchip’s OS81110 Intelligent Network Interface Controllers (INICs). After many years of using Microchip’s MOST25 INICs, Volvo Cars needed to enable its latest infotainment systems with the ability to carry Ethernet packets.
Microchip announces two families of new high-speed A/D converters: the MCP37DX0-200 and MCP372X0-200 families. These families feature 12- and 14- bit pipelined A/D converters with a maximum sampling rate of 200 Mega samples per second (Msps). The 12- and 14-bit devices feature high performance of over 67 dB Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) and over 96 dB Spurious Free Dynamic Range (SFDR).
Microchip has introduced a new 14-member dsPIC33EP ‘GS’ family of digital signal controllers (DSCs). The family delivers the performance needed to implement more sophisticated non-linear, predictive and adaptive control algorithms at higher switching frequencies.
Expanding its power-monitoring IC portfolio, Microchip has introduced the MCP39F511, a highly-integrated and accurate single-phase power-monitoring IC. The device is designed for the real-time measurement of AC power, combines the most popular power calculations with unique advanced features
Microchip has announced that the BMW Group is continuing to broaden the proliferation of MOST technology in its vehicle infotainment networks, using Microchip’s Intelligent Network Interface Controllers (INICs).
Microchip has announced the LAN9252, a new stand-alone EtherCAT slave controller with two 10/100 PHYs.
Microchip has announced that the MOST Cooperation has released its MOST150 Technology Coaxial Physical Layer specification.
