GLYN and Energy Micro with Energy Friendly MCU Distribution Agreement
Share:
Electronica 2012, Germany - The energy-friendly products of Energy Micro are now available at GLYN. This distributor of electronic building elements from Idstein and the Norwegian manufacturer of ARM®-based ultra-low power microcontrollers have signed a distribution agreement for the ARM Cortex-M EFM32 Gecko microcontrollers.
The agreement includes all activities in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Belgium, Luxembourg, Scandinavia, Eastern Europe, New Zealand and Australia. Energy Micro's energy-friendly product portfolio includes 32-bit ARM Cortex-M3, M4F- and M0+-based microcontrollers. Coordinated software protocols make familiarisation and programming easier.
Glyn Jones, Managing Director at GLYN, is looking forward to this cooperation: "We see strong market interest in Energy Micro and its ultra-low power ARM microcontroller solutions. Many design engineers globally need to extend the battery lifespan of their embedded systems. We can now satisfy their needs with the EFM32 Cortex-M MCUs. The new generation of wireless RF-MCUs, e.g. for the wireless M-Bus, IEEE 802.15 WPAN, Bluetooth, opens up many new opportunities for us. Energy Micro perfectly supplements our existing product lines."
Geir Førre, CEO of Energy Micro, sees a promising relation: "GLYN has impressed the distribution sector for many years with its excellent customer support. Together we can reach the valued engineers and decision-makers in companies that need the most efficient microcontroller solutions for reducing the energy consumption of their systems."
The 32-bit ARM Cortex-M EFM32 by Energy Micro is the most energy-efficient microcontroller family in the world, particularly suitable for energy-saving applications. Both companies are present at Electronica 2012, where customers can see live product demos.
