Octavo launches complete 1GHz computer in a 27mm package
The OSD335x C-SiP, an integrated 1GHz Arm Cortex-A8 computing platform, has been released by Octavo Systems. It integrates the required components for a computing system into a single IC package that is about the size of a standard Lego block.
The newest addition to the OSD335x family, the OSD335x C-SiP, is a complete system containing the 1GHz Arm Cortex-A8 Sitara AM335x processor from Texas Instruments, up to 1GB of DDR3 RAM, 4KB EEPROM, two power supplies, up to 16GB of eMMC non-volatile flash memory, a MEMS oscillator, and more than 100 passive components into its single 27mm X 27mm 400 ball BGA package.
Through the integration of OSD335x C-SiP, many of the repetitive and tedious tasks associated with designing a computing system are removed, says Octavo. For example, laying out DDR3 memory interfaces and power sequencing is no longer required.
Also, any concerns about electromagnetic interference caused by the layout of the oscillator are alleviated. “We estimate that using the OSD335x C-SiP will enable designers to get a system working in half the time required to design a discrete solution.” said Erik Welsh, application engineering manager, Octavo Systems. “This is the time they can spend refining or adding new features to further differentiate their product, or they can simply get to market quicker.”
Besides simplifying the design of an embedded system, the OSD335x C-SiP is also said to be about 50% smaller than an equivalent system built with individual components. This allows designers to shrink their designs, save cost on their PCBs or add processing power to form factors where before this may not have been possible.
This computing platform is suited to a range of applications, such as building automation, industrial control, consumer goods and Internet of Things. It can also help simplify the sourcing process and supply chain management.
The datasheet can be downloaded and samples are available now. The OSD335x C-SiP will be available to the general market by the end of the year.
The first variation will be built on the AM3358 processor, have 512MB of DDR3 memory, and 4 GB eMMC. It will be available in both industrial and commercial temperature ranges.
Toshiba releases DC brushed motor IC with current limit detection
An integrated dual H-bridge DC brushed motor driver IC that includes an output current limit function rated at 50V / 3.0A is now available from Toshiba Electronics Europe.
Toshiba says the new TB67H401FTG device is suited to any application where monitoring and feedback of the motor state is necessary, including office equipment, ATMs, home appliances, robotic cleaners and more.
All these devices usually incorporate DC brushed motors. Until now the safe control of DC brushed motors has been accomplished by limiting the upper value of the motor current through a constant current limit. The overcurrent is generated by the motor lock and is read from an external resistor through external circuitry that consists of operational amplifiers and comparators, thereby increasing the component count and circuit complexity.
The TB67H401FTG uses Toshiba’s BiCD process and has an inbuilt flag output circuit, which monitors the current state and indicates that the current has reached the upper threshold. As this function is now included, the external circuitry is no longer required and motor solutions are smaller.
The TB67H401FTG supports four drive modes; forward (CW), reverse (CCW), brake (short brake) and stop (off). The new driver IC also includes a mode switching function that extends the range of possible applications. The single-bridge mode supports a single channel current up to 6.0A and a dual-bridge mode allows the use of two motors with a single IC driving up to 3.0A per motor.
The low on-resistance MOSFETs incorporated into the H-bridge (high side + low side =0.49-Ohm typ.) help ensure low losses and efficient operation. An internal 5V regulator means the device can be driven from a single power supply.
The tiny device is housed in a 7mm x 7mm x 0.9mm QFN48 package and also includes thermal shutdown detection, over current protection and under voltage lockout.
A general error detection signal enhances system safety by providing a warning to the main system controller.
The TB67H401FTG is ready for mass production.
