Nuvoton Technology Unveils Fast LCD Development Simulation Tool NuTool-LCDView

Visual, Intuitive Platform for LCD Design, Simulation, and Testing Accelerates Development

Nuvoton Technology Unveils Fast LCD Development Simulation Tool NuTool-LCDView

Hsinchu, Taiwan – 18 December 2023 – Nuvoton Technology has announced the launch of its new LCD simulation software, NuTool-LCDView. NuTool-LCDView is a software tool that assists the development of TN-LCDs with Arm-based microcontrollers (MCUs). It provides a clear visual emulation of the planned LCD layout and hardware design during development, enhancing the communication between developers and engineers.

Nuvoton is a leading supplier of microcontrollers for TN-LCDs, which provide a simple ultra-affordable, low-power display for the vast variety of devices that do not require a more complex and costly pixel-addressable display.


This new software shortens LCD development time and cycles because it allows designers to work with the simulation and make rapid changes, even when the physical display hardware is unavailable. Engineers can then easily implement the final design in hardware form.

User-friendly, Visually Intuitive Platform with Hardware Emulation
NuTool-LCDView provides a user-friendly and visually intuitive platform for developers to design, interact with, and optimize TN-LCDs. The ‘what you see is what you get’ graphical interface – with icons, buttons, and menus – lets developers navigate and manipulate complex designs effortlessly. It shows a real-time LCD simulation on the PC without needing a physical LCD screen. This makes it much easier to interpret and communicate results to engineers and product managers. NuTool-LCDView’s simple drag-and-drop functionality enhances productivity by reducing the learning curve for developers.

This tool can directly generate LCD configuration code, ready for transfer to microcontroller hardware. NuTool-LCDView allows developers to simulate, debug, and complete LCD projects more easily and quickly.

Diverse Support and Wide Microcontroller Compatibility
NuTool-LCDView supports a wide range of microcontroller architectures. These include the ML54/ML56 microcontroller series with the NuMicro® 1T 8051 core and also the NuMicro M254/M256/M258/M2354 microcontroller series, based on the Arm Cortex® M23 core.

Enhanced IDE Integration
This software integrates different engineering modules, allowing for comprehensive control and customization. NuTool-LCDView can be used as a standalone tool, as an IAR plug-in, or within the popular Keil IDE for Arm Cortex-based chips.

In standalone mode, it connects to the MCU via the Arm standard SWD (Serial Wire Debug) interface, enabling real-time monitoring of changes in MCU COM/SEG pin configurations. When utilized within the Keil IDE during debugging, NuTool-LCDView tools enhance debugging efficiency for system designers, reducing development timelines.

Productive and Adaptable
NuTool-LCDView helps developers develop and validate products without constant access to the development hardware and physical LCDs—this streamlines product development and validation, allowing for more flexible iterative testing and improvement.

Hamilton Caster Appoints Andrew D. Stamp as Director of Sales

Hamilton Caster & Mfg. Co., a 117-year-old industry leader in heavy-duty industrial casters, proudly announces the enhancement of its legacy Super Endurance Caster (SEC) series, now rebranded as the Spinfinity® Super Endurance Caster (ZFSEC) series. In addition, Hamilton is introducing the all-new Spinfinity® Super Endurance Dual Caster (ZFSEC2) series, both of which feature a new heavy-duty 'V-Style' seal designed to elevate performance in the most demanding environments.
The Spinfinity® Super Endurance Caster (ZFSEC) series replaces Hamilton’s legacy SEC series, setting a new benchmark for kingpinless caster design in extra heavy-duty applications. Central to this upgrade is the heavy-duty 'V-Style' seal, which offers protection against dirt, debris, and moisture. This advanced sealing technology ensures consistent performance and extends the life of the caster, making it the ideal choice for environments where reliability is critical.
"With the introduction of the V-Style seal, the ZFSEC series is engineered to withstand the harshest conditions while providing zero-fix, 100% maintenance-free operation," said Mark Lippert, president of Hamilton Caster. "This enhancement allows our customers to minimize maintenance costs and downtime, further solidifying Hamilton’s reputation for durability and dependability."
The ZFSEC series retains the robust construction that Hamilton is known for, including a swivel top plate and inner raceway made from forged steel, providing superior strength for shock conditions. Sealed precision ball bearings are also now standard in all wheels, contributing to the maintenance-free performance of the series. Notably, the zerk fittings have been eliminated, as the new design makes them unnecessary.
Complementing the ZFSEC series, Hamilton introduces the all-new Spinfinity® Super Endurance Dual Wheel Caster (ZFSEC2) series. This dual wheel series is engineered for extra heavy-duty applications where stability, durability, and maintenance-free operation are paramount. Like its counterpart, the ZFSEC2 series leverages the new 'V-Style' seal, ensuring that each caster is fully protected against contaminants that could compromise performance.
Combined with sealed precision ball wheel bearings, this caster series ensures zero-fix, 100% maintenance-free performance. The dual-wheel configuration enhances stability and allows for a lower overall height, offering a perfect blend of strength and maneuverability.
Casters in both series are finished in a durable HAA polyester platinum powder coat and are available in a wide variety of wheel types, allowing for customization based on application needs. For complete wheel specs and product details check out the Spinfinity® Super Endurance Caster Landing Page and all-new Spinfinity® Super Endurance Dual Caster Landing Page.

New Horizon Releases Innovative Functionality for Optimizing Inbound Logistics Scheduling at DCs

ACTON, Massachusetts – September 3, 2024 – New Horizon Soft, LLC (https://www.newhorizon.ai), a global leader in AI-powered supply chain planning software, announced today the release of a new version of its Buyers Workbench procurement planning software. The latest version includes the ability to optimally schedule inbound deliveries, taking into account distribution center (DC) receiving capacity, thus minimizing receiving bottlenecks and lowering inbound logistics costs. A research paper describing the innovative methodology and its deployment at an iconic $10B+ U.S. quick-service restaurant chain was recently published in the peer-reviewed academic journal, the International Journal of Operations Research and Information Systems.

Supply chain organizations typically plan purchase orders without regard to DC receiving capacity. This leads to bottlenecks on some days and underutilized staff on others. New Horizon’s methodology, called Master Purchasing Receipt Scheduling (MPRS), uses a novel algorithm to automatically and optimally schedule deliveries. The algorithm plans deliveries at the time of purchase order creation and results in a steady volume of deliveries and lower planning and logistics costs. While first deployed at a restaurant chain, the methodology is applicable to any manufacturer, wholesaler, retailer, or foodservice company operating high-velocity DCs.
