As the Internet of things (IoT) becomes increasingly integrated into people's lives, the networked embedded systems become increasingly important.STMicroelectronics, one of the world's leading semiconductor suppliers across multiple electronic applications.The New York stock exchange code: STM) embedded technology in 2017, congress and exhibition (ET2017) shows the latest embedded system solutions, including robot composed of various stmicroelectronics chip model.
Industrial robots are the high level of integration and domestic robots embedded systems, the computing power, real time response and high precision perception need to use a variety of semiconductor chips, stmicroelectronics has developed robots all the semiconductor products.At the ET2017 exhibition, Italy, Italy, Italy, Italy, Italy.The robot can measure the distance between the robot and the obstacle, detect stop, turn, and arm expansion, and detect temperature changes and air pressure changes.Send data to external devices, support external device wireless control, projection on screen.The robot is the cooperative development result of Asratec, which is the leading robot control system development enterprise of Italy. It adopts ROBOTIS 'ROBOTIS OP2 open platform.
Robot integration 29 stmicroelectronics products, including the STM32 microcontroller (MCU), motion sensors and electronic compass (detection position), the time of flight distance sensor (range and gestures), pressure, temperature and other environmental sensors, MEMS micromirror, MEMS microphones and Bluetooth ® low-energy Bluetooth network processor (communications with external devices).The complex action of the robot is controlled by the robot control board of Asratec, v-sido CONNECT, and the core component of the control panel is the STM32 microcontroller.Stmicroelectronics to robotic model show that its ability in different application fields such as industry, health, education, provide a complete solution for robots, including high performance, easy to use product.
Iot cooperate with the "cloud" of the integration and processing information, the edge "computing" technology for the data to collect the unit near the distribution information processing capability, reduce the network load, efficient use of bandwidth of communication.
At the ET2017 show, stam demonstrated a robot capable of accurately and "understanding" four-digit Numbers in real time.The components of the robot model including technology with artificial intelligence, STM32 microcontroller and camera module, according to input data such as images, sounds, or sensor signal derived conclusions, this technology is expected to have independent evaluation and state prediction the edge of the device.Stmicroelectronics also exhibited STM32H7 series microcontroller on the market -- -- -- -- -- -- -- the highest performance Arm ® architecture ® -m micro controller -- -- -- -- -- -- -- and new dressing equipment with micro controller.
All kinds of advanced sensor technology are also needed to collect and process information of Internet of things devices.To this end, Italy semiconductor has exhibited the intelligent industrial motor vibration monitoring model developed using high precision accelerometer with Nidec.This technology helps to develop new industrial application services, such as factory equipment and infrastructure predictive maintenance.In the case of the semiconductor booth, visitors can also see a new pressure sensor.The minimum at the same level (3.3 x 3.3 mm) of sensors in a special gel package assembly of the pressure sensor and the ASIC circuit, 10 bar water pressure resistance, suitable for wearable devices or often spray water outdoor equipment.
It also shows the communication technology.Stmicroelectronics provides market communication distance and data transmission rate of different communication connection technology, for the Internet of things and Sigfox, LoRa ® etc LPWA (low power wide-area network) connection technology's rapid development is very important.In addition, it also shows Sigfox data transmission technology based on sub-ghz rf IC and a LoRa development board.On this development board, the Murata radio frequency module integrates the rf IC of STM32 microcontroller and Semtech company.The development board completed the authentication of the Japanese telecommunications company SORACOM service networking.With respect to close communication, the Italian technology semiconductor shows a smart lock model of the door and door of a low-functioning bluetooth chip and NFC (close communication) reading/writing device.
The motor drive chip is characteristic of excellent control precision and excellent real-time performance, which is very important for the control of various sizes of motors inside the iot device.At the exhibition, stam used a system encapsulation (SiP) chip to demonstrate how high precision vector control uav helical motors.This multi-in-one SiP product integrates Arm cortex-m0 microcontroller, DC/DC converter, transport, comparator, grid-actuator, and other components in a 7x7mm package.
Within the Internet of things, many embedded systems are at risk of cyberattacks, including forgery, deception, data theft, and device abuse, and security technology is critical to patching up vulnerabilities.Stmicroelectronics also USES a development board demonstration host - terminal equipment certification process near-field communication, bluetooth chip in the development board has low power consumption and safety microcontroller, including micro controller built-in industry the highest level of security of Common Criteria EAL5 + certificate.It also shows how the fully functional TPM (trusted platform module) solution enhances the security of the embedded system.
Stmicroelectronics ET2017 booths set up an exhibition, provide engineers with STM32 of open development environment of actual combat experience, including STM32 Nucleo development board and X-ray Nucleo extension plate with low power consumption of the bluetooth network processor brush, brushless/have/stepper motor drives, NFC tags, motion sensors, sensor environmental sensors and flight time.In each of these applications, visitors will be able to run a routine using an integrated development environment.
Stmicroelectronics on display in this exhibition boards and model including flight time distance sensor, touch screen controller, USB PD controller, wireless charging chip, digital power technology such as chips, NFC tag.
