Toshiba TC3567x series chips supporting Bluetooth 4.1 LE

23.07.2016

Toshiba announced the release of TC35678FSG, TC35678FXG and TC35679FSG chips supporting Bluetooth Low Energy (LE) 4.1 wireless interface. According to the manufacturer, they have the lowest energy consumption in their class, consuming half the energy compared to their predecessors.

The supply voltage of new microcircuits can lie in the range of 1,68-3,6 V. At a voltage of 3,0 V, the current in transmit mode is 3,6 mA, in receive mode - 3,3 mA, and in sleep mode it does not exceed 100 on the. As stated, a beacon with such a microcircuit can work from one CR2032 element for more than a year.

The TC35678FXG and TC35678FSG models feature 256 KB of flash memory. Between themselves, these microcircuits differ in design: TC35678FXG is available in a QFN60 package with dimensions of 7 x 7 mm, which made it possible to increase the number of GPIO lines from 16 to 32, and TC35678FSG - in a QFN40 package with dimensions of 5 x 5 mm. Same package selected for TC35679FSG.

Toshiba's new Bluetooth 4.1 LE chips are designed for wearable electronics, medical devices, smartphone accessories, remote controls and toys. Their trial samples are already available. The manufacturer expects to start serial deliveries of TC35678FXG at the end of this year, and deliveries of two other products - at the beginning of 2017.

The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

New method for creating powerful batteries 08.05.2024

With the development of technology and the expanding use of electronics, the issue of creating efficient and safe energy sources is becoming increasingly urgent. Researchers at the University of Queensland have unveiled a new approach to creating high-power zinc-based batteries that could change the landscape of the energy industry. One of the main problems with traditional water-based rechargeable batteries was their low voltage, which limited their use in modern devices. But thanks to a new method developed by scientists, this drawback has been successfully overcome. As part of their research, scientists turned to a special organic compound - catechol. It turned out to be an important component that can improve battery stability and increase its efficiency. This approach has led to a significant increase in the voltage of zinc-ion batteries, making them more competitive. According to scientists, such batteries have several advantages. They have b ... >>

Alcohol content of warm beer 07.05.2024

Beer, as one of the most common alcoholic drinks, has its own unique taste, which can change depending on the temperature of consumption. A new study by an international team of scientists has found that beer temperature has a significant impact on the perception of alcoholic taste. The study, led by materials scientist Lei Jiang, found that at different temperatures, ethanol and water molecules form different types of clusters, which affects the perception of alcoholic taste. At low temperatures, more pyramid-like clusters form, which reduces the pungency of the "ethanol" taste and makes the drink taste less alcoholic. On the contrary, as the temperature increases, the clusters become more chain-like, resulting in a more pronounced alcoholic taste. This explains why the taste of some alcoholic drinks, such as baijiu, can change depending on temperature. The data obtained opens up new prospects for beverage manufacturers, ... >>

Rose Transistor and Capacitor 05.03.2017

Scientists at Linköping University have figured out how to infiltrate a living rose with conductive polymers, non-invasively, and make a capacitor out of it.

This became a practical application of the same group's discovery made two years earlier. In November 2015, they published an article in the journal Science Advances in which they described how to force a rose to absorb a conductive polymer solution. The hydrogel was formed in the stem of the flower and formed "wires", so if you add electrodes at its two ends and a gate in the middle, you get a transistor.

Now this development has taken a material form - the material developed by Roger Gabrielson is formed inside the flower, and then the current of internal fluids helps to create wires, not only in the trunk, but throughout the plant, down to the leaves and petals.

“We charged the rose hundreds of times without losing capacity,” said Eleni Stavrinidou, a member of the development team. “And the capacity is comparable to the capacity of supercapacitors. The plant could, without any optimization, power our magnetic discharge pump and various sensors ". In addition to supplying energy to sensors and switches, it is theoretically possible to even create a fuel cell inside plants.
