PSoC™ 5, 3 & 1 Forum Discussions

Quality healthcare aimed at prevention is a trend that is rapidly gaining momentum. Medical devices that capture vital parameters and possess multiple connectivity features enable a seamless flow of information between caregivers and patients. Patient vitals can be located in a centralized repository, which can be accessed and processed by authorized personnel. Home healthcare is booming because of an increase in the aging population, rising healthcare costs, and demand of quality healthcare from remote locations. Continue reading the article here.

This paper presents PSoC design aspects that enable users of PSoC devices to implement low power systems. It explains PSoC power modes and maps the power modes to design elements. It touches upon the UPF (Unified Power Format) that enables designers to concisely capture the system power architecture. The main focus of this paper is on low power concepts that relate to shutting down power to blocks in a chip. These general techniques are applicable to any SoC (System on Chip) and not necessarily to a PSoC. Read the full article here.

 As consumer adoption rates for 3D display technologies increase, manufacturers of 3D active shutter glasses face the continual challenge of developing high quality glasses at costs consumers are willing to accept.  Reducing the physical size, developing true universal operation, and lowering power consumption have also become critical considerations for manufacturers vying for a piece of this market.  This article will examine the current 3D active shutter architectures employed today and contrast those with the next generation solutions now available.
