STMicroelectronics has announced two serial real-time clock (RTC) chips, expanding the company’s M41Txx family of microprocessor supervisor ICs. The M41T94 has a ...

A popular means of reducing size and cost for any embedded design is to use a communication bus with fewer I/O pins. Moving from a parallel bus to a serial bus provides significant size and cost ...

Serial buses dot the landscape of embedded design. From displays to storage to peripherals, serial interfaces make communications possible. Many serial communication interfaces compete for use in ...

An absolute encoder includes a coding disk in binary or gray code format, the electronics to read it, and communications circuits. A multiturn encoder may have several disks connected by gears as ...

The serial peripheral interface (SPI) bus is a synchronous, full-duplex, serial data link commonly used for the short-distance data exchange between a master device, such as a microcontroller unit ...
