From 1st to 5th March, Analog Devices (ADI) will participate in embedded world 2021 DIGITAL. Taking place this year as a completely digital event, the trade fair together with its associated conferences will be held in a virtual format.

Analog Devices and Volvo Cars has announced that Volvo Cars’ first pure electric SUV, the Volvo XC40 Recharge, will feature ADI’s integrated circuits (ICs) that support the battery management system (BMS) and Automotive Audio Bus (A2B). 

Functional Safety. Two words that instil fear in a design engineer. It generally means interpreting complex standards, confusing terminology and seemingly endless calculations to develop a product robust enough to be presented to, and approved by, a certification body such as TÜV or Exida.

As we hurtle toward the widespread use of autonomous vehicles, the need for more and more automotive sensors becomes ever more apparent. Cameras are one of the key sensors required to aid the evolution of the autonomous vehicle. Fionn Hurley, Analog Devices (ADI), discusses the company’s C2B.

Analog Devices has introduced a complete condition-based monitoring (CbM) development platform designed to help accelerate condition monitoring hardware, software, and algorithm development.  CN0549 provides mechanically secure, wide bandwidth sensor data with robust, high fidelity data acquisition. 

A practical method to separate common mode and differential mode noise enables power supply designers to reduce design time and BoM

Analog Devices’ Marco La Ciacera, Regional Sales Manager, and Brendan O’Dowd, General Manager, discuss industrial automation, Industry 4.0, and how to prepare for the factory of the future.

The LT8491 buck-boost battery charging controller from Analog Devices features Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT), temperature compensation and I2C interface for telemetry and control.

Analog Devices has introduced the AD7134 alias-free analogue-to-digital converter (ADC) that significantly simplifies front-end design and speeds up time to market for precision DC-350kHz applications. Traditional precision data-acquisition signal chain design is a time-consuming activity as designers balance anti-alias filter requirements, passive component tolerances, phase and gain errors, as well as high-speed ADC drive requirements.

The market for electric vehicles (EVs) has changed rapidly over the past few years, transitioning from a technology novelty with an added sustainability benefit, to being a true performance leader in the automotive market. EVs now have the lowest total cost of ownership for consumers and have the benefit of providing a sustainable mobility experience.

Marvell and Analog Devices have announced an advanced 4G/5G radio unit (RU) design that supports high antenna counts and multi-gigabit per second throughput for both integrated RAN and Open RAN deployments.

  Bi-polar power, bi-directional power supplies for automotive and audio systems that are immune to input voltage changes while generating power and enabling reverse flow current are possible, proposes Victor Khasiev

Analog Devices has introduced a reference design and algorithm that enables small form factor, low power, smoke detector designs to be rapidly prototyped and brought to market faster at a reduced cost. The new CN0537 reduces design risk and has been tested and verified to pass the UL 217 Standard for Smoke Alarms, 8th edition.

NEC and Analog Devices have worked together to design a 5G Network Massive MIMO Antenna Radio Unit for Rakuten Mobile.

Analog Devices has announced a strategic collaboration with Microsoft to leverage Microsoft’s 3D Time-of-Flight (ToF) sensor technology, allowing customers to easily create high performance 3D applications that bring higher degrees of depth accuracy and work regardless of the environmental conditions in the scene.

Christoph Kämmerer, Field Applications Engineer at Analog Devices (ADI), discusses fluid measurements with medical uses and describes the individual applications as well as the versatility of impedance measurements.

Evonetix has announced a collaboration with Analog Devices. The companies will work together on the advancement and commercial scale-up of Evonetix’s proprietary microelectromechanical systems (MEMS)-based silicon chips and accelerate the development of Evonetix’s first product, a DNA desktop writer. 

Analog Devices (ADI) has introduced a full audio system that features the SHARC Audio Module (SAM) for the creation of digital audio devices, including audio FX processors, multi-channel audio systems, MIDI synthesisers, and other DSP-based audio systems. SAM includes the dual-SHARC+ core ADSP-SC589 audio processor SoC (with an integrated Arm Cortex-A5 core) and leverages Analog Devices’ A2B audio bus technology.

Vital sign monitoring has extended beyond the boundaries of medical practice and into many areas of our everyday lives. Advances in microelectronics have led to cost reduction in monitoring systems, making these technologies more accessible and common in areas such as telemedicine, sports, fitness and wellness, and workplace safety, as well as the automotive market. Despite this expansion and given the health-related nature of these applications,...

Analog Devices (ADI) has announced its collaboration with Intel to create a flexible radio platform that addresses 5G network design challenges and will enable customers to scale their 5G networks more quickly and economically.
