Low-Power Semiconductor Technology promotes energy efficiency.
Combining SOI (Silicon-on-Insulator) substrate technology with 0.16 micron lithography, next-generation variation of BCD (Bipolar-CMOS-DMOS) smart power semiconductor technology aims to reduce power consumption of electronic systems. It will enable chip designers to combine high-density logic circuitry (1.8 and 3.3 V CMOS) with full dielectric isolation and component portfolio, including power...

Motion Sensing Software Engine targets smart mobile devices.
Fusing data from 3-axis accelerometer, 3-axis gyroscope, and 3-axis magnetometer, iNEMO(TM) Engine uses sophisticated adaptive algorithms for prediction and filtering. Software can correct for magnetic distortions registered on magnetometer, dynamic distortion measured by accelerometer, and gyroscope's inherent drift over time. This protects accuracy of heading information, removes pointing...

Stereo Headphone Amplifier conserves portable device power.
While connected to 2 supplies, TS4621 Class-G amplifier IC draws power from higher-voltage rail only and specifically for periods when peak audio power levels are required. It is supplied in 1.65 x 1.65 mm CSP that enables positioning near headphone connector for optimal audio performance. While switch-on/switch-off circuitry eliminates pop and click noise, IÃ-²C interface enables digital...

Supplied in 15 x 15 mm package, STi5197L fosters accelerated development of entry-level cable TV zapper STBs intended for Chinese and Asian markets. IC demodulates, decodes, and processes cable signals and also offers USB and Ethernet interfaces. Support for DVB-C, including ITU-T J83 Annexes A/B/C, as well as all smart-card-based security systems is standard, and integrated audio subsystem...
Read More »Pushbutton Controller Chips suit battery-powered products.
Model STM6600 and STM6601 smart pushbutton on/off controller chips block device power-up if battery is excessively discharged. Chips can also prevent power-up if fault is detected in power supply. Connecting directly to power button, ICs use smart-reset, which requires 2 pushbuttons to be held down for minimum period before reset occurs, eliminating need to hide reset button. Units have active...
