TI demonstrate next-gen consumer electronics at CES
Texas Instruments will showcase more than a hundred cutting-edge product demonstrations in the TI Village (#N115-N118) at the 2015 International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in January.
Getting started with TI's WiLink 8 WiFi + Bluetooth modules
The WL1835MODCOM8 Kit for Sitara EVMs easily enables customers to add WiFi and Bluetooth to embedded applications based on TI's Sitara microprocessors. TI’s WiLink 8 WiFi + Bluetooth modules are pre-certified and offer high throughput and extended range along with WiFi and Bluetooth coexistence in a power-optimised design.
Sensor transponder generates an IoT-ready solution
A flexible, high frequency 13.56MHz sensor transponder family, claimed to be the industry’s first, has been released by Texas Instruments. The RF430FRL15xH SoC family combines an ISO 15693-compliant NFC interface with a programmable MCU, non-volatile FRAM, an ADC and SPI or I2C interface.
MCUs' diagnostic features establish a 'safe island'
To reduce the time and effort OEMs spend taking their products through certification, Texas Instruments has introduced the Hercules TMS570LS12x/11x and RM46x MCUs.
Motor drivers reduce spin-up time to just seconds
Reducing spin-up time to just seconds, a 12V motor driver family has been introduced by Texas Instruments. Making tuning stepper and brushed DC motors easier, the DRV8846 driver integrates a proprietary adaptive current control technology that automatically tunes motor performance. By using a simple PWM control interface and minimal external components, the DRV8848 simplifies designs.
Display chipset facilitates 1080p HD projection
Based on proven DLP Cinema technology used in more than 80% of digital theatres, the 0.47” TRP Full-HD 1080p chipset for video and data display applications is sampling to Texas Instruments' third-party developer network. It is the smallest TI chipset capable of generating brighter, more efficient HD projection displays from small form-factor electronics.
Achieve 84% efficiency for 10W wireless charging
Texas Instruments provides a more efficient charging solution with what is claimed to be the industry’s first integrated 10W wireless charging receiver and corresponding transmitter.
