SiS to Integrate Projected-Capacitive Touch Sensors With Microchip’s Award-WinningGestIC® 3D Gesture Technology.

As a Market Leader in Inductive Sensing Technology, Company Launches LX3302 for Demanding Automotive, Industrial and Commercial Aviation Applications.

When faced with the decision of what to use for the clock source in an electronic design, the traditional assumption has been that the only realistic choice for any application that needs even moderate accuracy is a quartz-based oscillator. Author: Craig Bakke, Product Manager at Digi-Key Quartz has dominated the market for decades but its […]

Vishay Intertechnology launches a new digital RGBW sensor featuring Filtron™ technology for accurate RGBW spectral sensitivity, while providing ambient light spectral sensitivity with responses close to that of the human eye. The digital RGBW sensor VEML6040 is available at distributor Rutronik as of now. The new VEML6040 color sensor incorporates photo-pin-diodes (RGBW) and a signal […]

Silicon Labs introduced a new family of relative humidity (RH) and temperature sensors that simplify RH sensing designs while providing industry-leading power efficiency and ease of use. Silicon Labs’ second-generation RH sensing solution, the Si701x/2x sensors combine a standard CMOS mixed-signal IC with a proven technique of measuring humidity using a polymer dielectric film. The […]
