Murata

Murata supplies the IMX-060 evaluation board to provide a ready-made hardware environment for testing its IRA-S series of pyroelectric infrared (PIR) sensors. 

The IRA-S sensors are available in a leaded package. Murata also makes a range of five fresnel lenses, supplied separately. This evaluation board features an IRA-S210ST01 sensor with the IML-0685 and IML-0688 lenses.

STMicroelectronics

The STEVAL-56G3MAI1 module enables easy evaluation of the VD56G3 1.5 Mpixel monochrome image sensor from STMicroelectronics. The module features a soldered sensor in a PLCC package, an M12 lens holder screwed to the board, and a removable lens. The module also has a flex cable to connect to a broad range of embedded processing platforms. 

The module is one of a family of modules for evaluating various products in the ST BrightSense image sensor portfolio. All share the same standard connector and pinout, to enable easy replacement of one image sensor with another in proof-of-concept designs. 

All of the image sensor modules are backed by a comprehensive set of enablement software, drivers and evaluation tools, including drivers for a Linux® operating system. The modules also support GUI software for evaluation when paired with the STEVAL-EVK-U0I1EVK evaluation board.

Infineon

The OPTIGA™ Trust M IoT Security Development Kit is the easiest way to develop and evaluate end-to-end security use cases for IoT devices. The kit enables designers to build prototypes of security applications and build full-featured IoT applications. The board includes:

  • OPTIGA Trust M security solution
  • PSOC™ 62, an Arm® Cortex®-M4/Cortex-M0+-based microcontroller
  • AIROC™ CYW43012, a low-power system-on-chip which supports dual-band 2.4 GHz and 5.0 GHz Wi-Fi®/Bluetooth® 5.0 networking

This development board is supplied with two ready-to-use security use cases:

  • Secured communication with AWS over MQTT using cryptography support from the OPTIGA Trust M
  • Secure, zero-touch cloud provisioning using a CIRRENT™ Cloud ID and the pre-provisioned X.509 certificate delivered with the OPTIGA Trust M

The kit is supported by the ModusToolbox™ design tool. The OPTIGA Trust M host library is available as open source code.

 

STMicroelectronics

The STEVAL-MKI231KA demonstration board provides a hardware platform for evaluating the STHS34PF80, an infrared motion and presence-detection sensor from STMicroelectronics. 

The demo board is connected through flat cable to a generic adapter board, the STEVAL-MKIGIBV5, to make it compatible with the STEVAL-MKI109V3 microcontroller board. An ad hoc plastic holder with a Fresnel lens (TMOS63-10) has been provided in the kit to enable the designer to verify the in-application performance of the device.

The STEVAL-MKIGIBV5 can be plugged into a standard DIL 24 socket. The kit supports the complete STHS34PF80 pin-out, and comes ready-to-use with the required decoupling capacitors on the power supply line.

This adapter is supported by the STEVAL-MKI109V3 motherboard, which includes a high performance 32-bit MCU functioning as a bridge between the sensor and a PC, on which it is possible to use the downloadable graphical user interface, or dedicated software routines for customized applications.

It is also possible to plug the board into an X-NUCLEO-IKS01A3, X-NUCLEO-IKS02A1 or X-NUCLEO-IKS4A1 board. The kit is supported by an X-CUBE-MEMS1 expansion software package for STM32 MCUs.
