What can a System-on-Module do for engineers? We sat down with Phytec, an #STAuthorizedPartner, to understand this question through the lens of its phyCORE®-STM32MP15x and its phyCORE-STM32MP13x.

The Page EEPROM retains flexibility and robustness while offering capacities and speeds that are on par with Flash. Thanks to its hybrid architecture, it uses 16-byte words and 512-byte pages while still enabling byte-level write operations.

X-CUBE-MCSDK 6.3.2 simplifies motor control applications. The HSO field-oriented control algorithm means an application can figure out the rotor's position and speed without needing a sensor.

Who would have thought high-end UIs on embedded systems would encounter this new challenge? While microcontrollers are resource-constrained, they are no longer the limiting factor they once were, and engineers are no longer obliged to use a more expensive MPU as MCUs embed powerful GPUs. Instead, it's the memory configuration that developers have to contend with when drawing their designs and developing their interfaces.

Edge advancements in sensor and electrode technology. The IEEE Sensors 2024 conference in Kobe, Japan, featured a Biosensors Workshop led by STMicroelectronics. It brought together industry leaders along with research institutions.

Flash and debug your MCUs with the STM32CubeProgrammer 2.18. The new software can update root security system extension binaries rapidly, change option bytes more efficiently, and port projects more easily. It is, therefore, the most forward-looking version yet, as it anticipates the needs of developers and looks to improve their workflow.

NFC's increasing popularity for Matter commissioning enables new use cases. ST is working with the Connectivity Standards Alliance to ensure developers can support commissioning over NFC as an alternative to solutions relying on QR codes.

How to engage young learners and introduce them to coding? The most fun option is playing games. Starting in 2023, ST volunteers have developed a “Storyteller Robot” project and brought it to schools in the suburbs of Milan.

Albora, a member of the ST Partner Program, worked with ST to lower the barrier to entry to satellite IoT applications. With AlbaSpot IoT, ST's Teseo-LIV3FL, and an STM32C071, engineers can use global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) to track millions of assets.

Operating at the sub-threshold or near-threshold region? We all want it, but it's so hard to deliver. Why aren't more companies using the sub-threshold region of CMOS transistors? We tell you what's happening behind the scenes.

Where can you learn about the latest trends in energy management? At Enlit Europe! During the latest edition in Milan, ST showcased its commitment to sustainable energy solutions.

Edge AI and IoT for everyone! ST AIoT Craft is the first online tool that helps program ST MEMS sensors equipped with a machine learning core (MLC) to run inference operations.

STM32 ISP IQTune is the first mass-market software tool for general-purpose microprocessors. It helps developers tune their image signal processor (ISP) for a particular CMOS image sensor and its lens.

ST's newest biosensor. The ST1VAFE3BX combines and synchronizes biopotential inputs with an ST accelerometer and a machine learning core, thus opening the way for the next generation of healthcare wearables needing to rein in their energy consumption.

Smart energy technology. At the Industrial Summit 2024 in Shenzhen we showcased over 150 demos, held 28 sessions on motor control, power & energy, and automation, and featured our technologies and products.

Why did JPEmbedded, a member of the #STPartnerProgram, choose to use an STM32F7 in its APIS Box? See how this network protocol converter for Modbus and MQTT brings cloud connectivity and interoperability thanks to the #STM32 ecosystem.

How can modern science and technology promote human progress? Since 2003, the ST Foundation has trained over one million individuals across 29 countries through the Digital Unify Program.

ST and Qt are thrilled to shine a light on X-LINUX-QT, a software package dedicated to helping developers adopt the graphical framework on our STM32MP25.

The STM32C071 is now available to all. Thanks to its 128 KB of flash and its 24 KB of RAM, it is possible to drive a small 320 x 240 display using an SPI interface.

Simplify designs and reduce costs. The L9961 is our first battery monitoring and balancing IC for industrial applications that offers a high-side/low-side configurable pre-driver. The integration lowers the number of external components without compromising features.

What is an MPU, and how is it different from an MCU? Today's innovations keep blurring the dividing lines between the two. That's why it's more critical than ever to understand their differences and what applications they serve best.

Machine vision on STM32MP2. Collabora, a member of the ST Partner Program, presented GStreamer, a computer vision pipeline tailored for neural networks.

Embedded in wearable technology like smartwatches and fitness trackers, MEMS sensors facilitate athletic performance monitoring and enhancement.

Be part of electronica China 2024! What questions did ST answer? Too often, attendees don't take the time to step back and ask what challenges they would need to solve or think of the answers they should seek. That's why we highlighted some of the questions our readers may have and provided answers.

ST launched the STM32WB05, STM32WB05xN, and the STM32WB06/07, thus extending the STM32WB0 series inaugurated late last year.

SENSOR + TEST 2024, the international trade fair held in Nuremberg, enabled ST to introduce the latest sensing technologies for smarter and safer industrial systems.
