Nanopower Semiconductor’s nPZero PMIC redefines low-power design with control capabilities at 20 nA At embedded world Exhibition&Conference 2024, ipXchange met William Xavier from Nanopower, a truly disruptive company that has created a way for engineers to no longer have to choose between a high performance MCU and power consumption so low that a device can run on harvested ambient energy. The answer is an ultra-low-power co-host that can power-cycle everything in your design so that every last drop of energy is used only when needed.

How to run GPU-level edge AI on a Cortex-M MCU – NVIDIA and Edge Impulse’s latest tools At Hardware Pioneers Max 2024, ipXchange chatted with Edge Impulse’s Amir Sherman about NVIDIA TAO and NVIDIA Omniverse, two AI tools that have enabled Edge Impulse’s customers to run GPU-level edge AI workloads on low-cost, low-power general-purpose microcontrollers. So how does a Renesas Electronics Cortex-M85 MCU measure against an NVIDIA Jetson Orin GPU for image classification, and how does Edge Impulse make it possible to run the same AI task on both devices?

A wireless SoC that’s made for ambient IoT! Silicon Labs’ MG22E is the final piece of the puzzle ipXchange talks a lot about energy harvesting and ambient IoT, so it was awesome to chat with Tristan Cool at Wirepas OPEN 2024 and get the scoop on the third company in a collaboration shared with Dracula Technologies and long-term ipXchange friends e-peas. In this interview, Tristan outlines the importance of ambient IoT, the challenges that it poses, and how the new MG22E wireless SoC tackles those challenges head on and makes hyperscale ambient IoT possible.

How spatial audio brings 3D sound to headphones – Ceva, Inc. takes the voices out of your head! ipXchange had an exciting chat with Seth Sternberg from CEVA at Sensors Converge 2024. There, he showed Guy a set of headphones built for spatial audio, a technology that enables fully 3D sound for a truly immersive experience that moves with the user, despite still being a two-speaker setup. So how does it work? Find out by watching the full interview on the ipXchange website linked in comments!

3-in-1 M.2 expansion cards streamline stocking – Discovering Cervoz’s wired interface cards Back at embedded world Exhibition&Conference 2024, ipXchange chatted to Sophie Lee from Cervoz about some great M.2 expansion cards supporting ethernet ports for industrial PCs.  Cervoz also does similar 3-in-1 cards for serial and USB interfaces, so we thought we’d make a post-show video explaining why a single card that supports 42 mm, 60 mm, or 80 mm M.2 expansion slots is super practical for OEMs building a wide range of products.  Keep designing! #EW2024 #EW24 #industrialPC #industrial #industrialelectronics #ethernet #serialinterface #RS232 #RS422 #RS485 #Mdot2 #M2card #expansioncard #connectivity #industrialautomation #industrialmemory #gigabitethernet #electronics #electronicsengineering 

How Groq’s LPUs overtake GPUs for the fastest LLM AI processing in large-scale deployments We’ve been wanting to release this ipXperience for a while, and ipXchange is thrilled to finally share this chat with Mark Heaps to explain just what makes Groq’s AI chips so disruptive. Learn what an LPU is, why it’s better than a GPU for deployment at scale, and what lowest-latency large language models enable by watching the full discussion on the ipXchange website: https://lnkd.in/eVkdzSB9 It’ll change the way you think about AI chips, and you can play with this functionality today!

High-accuracy optical position encoding with iC-Haus’ new iC-PXL3212 SoC It’s been a year since ipXchange caught up with iC-Haus GmbH in person, and what a demo they had on show at SENSOR+TEST 2024! Goran Pandza showed us a new non-magnetic way to perform ultra-high-accuracy position encoding in robotics, motor systems, and medical or industrial devices. The iC-PXL3212 SoC integrates both the light source and the detection element for a compact, high-performance encoder when paired with a reflective target. As explained on the ipXchange website, there are many advantages to this optical solution over standard magnetic technologies: https://lnkd.in/eGJBQcGq Keep designing! #sensor #opticalsensor #opticalencoder #encoder #positionencoder #motor #electronics #systemonchip #electronicsengineering #semiconductor #disruptivetechnology #robotics #robots #industrialelectronics #opticalpositionsensor #lidar

CHERI kills cyberattacks with ‘bounded’ software – 14 years of research has truly paid off! At embedded world Exhibition&Conference 2024, ipXchange had a great chat with Codasip’s Andrew Lindsay about the award-winning CHERI spatial memory protection technology and its implementation in Codasip’s A730 64-bit application processors. With cybersecurity such a big topic across connected applications, CHERI poses a solution to breaking the chain of attack should a third party somehow gain access to your system. How does it stop attackers from digging and reprogramming past their point of entry?
