Nuvoton Technology for Green Energy, Endpoint AI, and Automotive Applications at Embedded World 2024

Energy Saving and Power Management Systems Are the Next Green Generation

Nuvoton Technology for Green Energy, Endpoint AI, and Automotive Applications at Embedded World 2024

Hsinchu, Taiwan, March 26, 2024 – Nuvoton will be showing green tech, endpoint AI, and automotive products at Embedded World 2024, booth 3A-418 in Germany. These products provide solutions for energy-saving cooling and ventilation, automotive AI guidance and safety challenges, and AI-based manufacturing and smart home demands.

Ultra-Low-Power USB Type-C PD 3.0 MCU, Hydrogen Sensors, Energy-Saving Solutions


Nuvoton’s NuMicro M2L31 microcontroller, with an Arm Cortex-M23 core featuring 64 to 512 Kbytes of ReRAM (Resistive Random-Access Memory), is an ultra-low-power product designed with a commitment to sustainability and energy efficiency. The M2L31 series not only supports two CAN FD and two USB Type-C PD 3.0 connections, but also prioritizes robust security features to safeguard valuable data.

Nuvoton’s reference design for a NuMicro M2L31 MCU-based DC fan system compliant with USB Power Delivery 3.0 includes motor drive capability and a user interface to control the fan and upload or display system information. Highlights include BOM cost savings due to integrated features, simplified PCB layout, and flexible input voltage – together, these energy and resource-saving features not only reduce costs but also help create a greener product.

Nuvoton’s other eco-friendly offerings include the KM1M7AF digital power control microcontroller with security features; a compact high-efficiency, low-vibration industrial 48V fan motor driver (KA44370A); a one-chip AC impedance measurement design for efficiency and safety in battery management systems; and an ultra-low power hydrogen sensor that is ideal for monitoring green energy applications such as hydrogen stations, fuel cells, and hydrogen pipelines.

Automotive HMI and Safety ICs Enable Next-Generation Automotive Applications

In the automotive sector, Nuvoton has an automotive Human Machine Interface (HMI) processing IC based around the Gerda™ graphic processor series. This HMI IC supports fast booting and attractive 2.5D graphics. Its optimized system cost and external component integration are ideal for low-to-mid-end automotive applications.

For automotive safety and AI driving scenarios, Nuvoton’s Multi-Sensing Bridge IC can aggregate and synchronize data from image, audio, depth sensors, and signal processing ICs. This single-package IC with internal DRAM also has XR/VR/AR and drone applications. In addition, Nuvoton will be showing an automotive battery monitoring IC and pack monitoring IC at Embedded World 2024.

AI Vision Warehousing Solutions and Smart Home Technology ICs

Nuvoton displays two user-trainable AI systems for classifying camera data. The Arm® Cortex®-M55 based M55M1 Automatic Medicine Classifier uses a hardware-accelerated neural network to identify medicines based on visual input and user training. Based on related technology, the Arm® Cortex®-A35 MA35D1 Intelligent Warehouse Management System is a visual AI system for identifying different varieties of fruit in warehouses and similar environments. Both these systems support LCDs of appropriate size for the user interface.

For smart home products, Nuvoton presents the NAU83G60 Intelligent Smart Amplifier, which is ideal for consumer audio. The company will also be showing a smart ITO panel solution with touch keys and voice prompt capability. This solution is based on the M258 microcontroller with an Arm® Cortex®-M23 core and features Nuvoton’s fast LCD development and simulation tool, NuTool-LCDView.

Nuvoton looks forward to meeting friends, partners, and customers at booth 3A-418 at Embedded World from April 9 to 11, 2024.

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.
