STMicroelectronics

The B-G473E-ZEST1S Discovery kit, a part of the STMicroelectronics motor-control development platform, supports the ZeST and HSO algorithms. 

The B-G473E-ZEST1S is a control board featuring a STM32G473QET6 microcontroller in a ZeST Discovery pack. It works with a power board such as the STEVAL-LVLP01, an optional adaptor board such as the B-ZEST-ADAPT1, and an accessories package such as the B-MOTOR-PMSMA1. 

The B-G473E-ZEST1S control board is connected to the power board or adaptor board through an embedded V2 motor-control connector. The board can also operate with the X-NUCLEO-IHM08M1, X-NUCLEO-IHM09M1, or X-NUCLEO-IHM16M1 motor-driver expansion boards via a Morpho motor-control connector. 

The board includes an integrated STLINK-V3EC in-circuit debugger and programmer.

The range of uses for LiDAR sensors is expanding to include not only autonomous driving, but also applications in the industrial and infrastructure fields. Improvements to LiDAR sensors are producing longer range and higher resolution.

In addition to improving the characteristics of the laser diode, it is necessary to drive the laser diode at higher speeds and power. The ROHM RLD90QZWx series is a line of 905 nm, high-power, narrow emission-width laser diodes.

The REFLD002-1 reference design includes the BD2311NVX-LB gate driver to drive the RLD90QZWx laser diode. The high speed of the BD2311NVX-LB contributes to improved LiDAR sensor range and resolution.

Microchip

The RNBD451 Add-On Board is an efficient, low-cost development platform based on the RNBD451PE Bluetooth® Low Energy module from Microchip. 

The board complies with the mikroBUS™ add-on bus standard. It also includes an on-board MCP2200 USB-to-UART converter, enabling out-of-the-box evaluation with no other hardware requirements.

The RNBD451 Add-On Board supports a wide range of applications:

  • Wireless lighting
  • Home automation
  • IoT devices
  • Industrial automation
  • General-purpose Bluetooth data exchange

The SIP32433xEVB evaluation boards provide a convenient tool for evaluating the operation of the SIP32433A load switch, with latch off, and SIP32433B with auto retry. Operating from a supply-voltage range of 3 V to 23 V, the boards demonstrate the programmable current-limit range of the two devices, 150 mA to 3.5 A. 

The boards provide an input path current-sense resistor for current probing, and an onboard MOSFET for output short-circuit testing.
