MathWorks announces release 2016b of
MATLAB and Simulink
MathWorks introduced Release 2016b
(R2016b) with new capabilities that simplify
working with big data in MATLAB. Engineers
and scientists can now more easily work with
data too big to fit in memory. R2016b also
includes additional features in Simulink; a
new product, Risk Management Toolbox; and
updates and bug fixes to 83 other products. Tall
arrays now provide a way to work naturally
with out-of-memory data using familiar MAT-
LAB functions and syntax, removing the need
to learn big data programming. Engineers and
scientists can use tall arrays with hundreds of
math, statistics, and machine learning algo-
rithms. Code can run on Hadoop clusters or be
integrated directly into Spark applications.

Mouser: Cypress FM4 S6E2H-series MCUs
for motor control
Mouser Electronics is stocking the FM4
S6E2H-Series microcontrollers from Cypress
Semiconductor. Designed for motor control
and industrial automation applications, the
32-bit S6E2H-Series offers highly integrated
hardware-based features, provides superior
performance needed for Industry 4.0 applica-
tions, and delivers the scalability to minimize
design costs and accelerate time-to-market.

Toshiba: single-chip, low pin-count MCUs
control multiple motors
Toshiba Electronics Europe has developed
a new range of microcontrollers that allow a
single-chip, with a low pin-count (32 to 64
pins), to control multiple motors. The MK4
group is the second offering in Toshiba’s TXZ
family of high-speed, low power consumption
microcontrollers that incorporate the ARM
Cortex-M core.

Maxim: protect systems with secure
authenticator
Developers of industrial, medical, and IoT
products now have an added level of IP and
device integrity protection with the DS28C36
DeepCover secure authenticator from Maxim
Integrated Products. With rampant product
counterfeiting, unsafe reuse of medical acces-
sories, and vulnerable network connected
sensor nodes, companies recognize the need
to integrate strong defenses into their prod-
ucts and systems.

HEITEC: HeiCase enclosure family available
in customized maxi versions up to 30 U
With immediate effect, the electronics divi-
sion of HEITEC offers the opportunity to
receive customized versions of its successful
modular HeiCase standard enclosures family
(formerly RiCase) featuring a height of up to
30U and a depth of up to 900mm. In conse-
quence, these variants are particularly suitable
for packaging-intensive applications with a lot
of electronics or as a mobile “cabinet replace-
ment” which, in comparison with conven-
tional solutions, has numerous advantages:

Socionext launches new offices in
Swindon, UK
Advances in cloud computing, the prolifer-
ation of streaming and broadcast of 4K vid-
eos via the Internet, and an increase in data
and voice services, all place demands on net-
work capacities. Today, optical data transmis-
sion rates of 100Gbps and above are required
to support the growth in fiber-optic net-
works to deliver the increased levels of traf-
fic. In response to growing network demand,
Socionext announce the opening of a new
R&D Center in Swindon in UK mainly for its
global Network SoC Business Unit and the
high performance analogue IP.

Renesas: general-purpose MCUs in 24-pin
compact package support up to 13
sensors
Renesas Electronics announced the RL78/
G11 Group of microcontrollers, a group of
small-package, low-power MCUs that will
enable users to easily and more quickly pro-
totype and develop systems that support low-
power sensor hubs and sensor application
systems. Designed to connect to multiple sen-
sors and convert the sensor output signals to
digital data, these compact sensor hubs are
used in a wide range of applications.

Adeneo Embedded changes its name to
Witekio
Adeneo Embedded announced the change
of its name to Witekio. This new identity
signifies a new market positioning for the
company based on the belief that the future
success of embedded projects will no longer
mainly depend on technical expertise but
the ability to optimize the system software
integration.
