Webinar May 15 - Optimizing the Sensors Signal Chain for Low Power Design
D
ate: May 15, 2012
Time: 12:00 PM EST (also available ondemand after the live event)
Duration: 60 minutesSensor circuits rely on a signal chain to pick up the initial signal, convert it to digital, and algorithmically massage it. For circuits that rely on battery power or even harvested energy, power efficiency can make or break the design’s success. Each link in the chain -- the sensor, the interface circuitry, the processor -- must be optimized for maximum power efficiency. Learn the most power-efficient way to implement your low-power sensor app design from two experts with practical design experience. One example will cover general sensing and the integrated signal chain; the other example will cover capacitive proximity switching integrated with an auto-calibration circuit.
Servoflo is a sponsor of this free webinar organized by EDN, and one of the industry speakers will be David Grice from ZMDI. -
New DC-DC Buck Converter IC's for Power Management
The ZSPM401X is a family of DC/DC synchronous switching regulators with fully integrated power switches, internal compensation, and full fault protection. The switching frequency of 1 MHz enables the use of small filter components, resulting in reduced board space and reduced BOM costs. THe ZSPM401X family needs very few additional components compared to alternative solutions.These products utilized current mode feedback in normal regulation in PWM mode. When the regulator is disabled (EN is low), the device draws 5 uQ quiescent current.
