Critical infrastructure services such as telecommunications, utilities, transportation, and defense require Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) technology to operate. But the ubiquitous use of the Global Positioning System (GPS) as the primary source of PNT information has introduced vulnerabilities.

I²C and SPI are two of the most widely used serial communication buses for embedded systems, and each comes with its own set of advantages and disadvantages. SPI is the faster protocol, but that comes at the expense of higher pricing and limited scalability.

Microchip Technology announced its development with Clean Sky, a joint European Commission (EC) and industry consortium, on the first aerospace-qualified baseless power modules designed to enable higher-efficiency, lighter, and more compact power conversion and motor drive systems.

The system combines integration and performance in one compact, low-power device supported by Microchip’s widely deployed IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol (PTP) and synchronization algorithm software modules.

Today’s energy-efficient electric charging systems powering commercial vehicle propulsion, as well as auxiliary power systems, solar inverters, solid-state transformers, and other transportation and industrial applications all rely on high-voltage switching power devices.

Microchip Technology Inc. announced a new Qi 1.3 wireless charging reference design to meet the new Qi 1.3 specification from The Wireless Power Consortium (WPC).

Microchip Technology Inc announced the Adaptec Smart Storage PCIe Gen 4 NVMe Tri-Mode SmartRAID 3200 RAID Adapters, and Adaptec SmartHBA 2200 and Adaptec HBA 1200 Host Bus Adapters.
