Maxim Integrated Products has introduced low-power (less than 1.2microamps), microprocessor supervisory circuits that feature precision power-supply monitoring and battery-control functions.

Analog Devices, Inc., has expanded its portfolio of supervisory ICs with new low-power microprocessor supervisory circuits for monitoring under-voltage conditions in handheld industrial instruments, ...

In 1958 the integrated circuit was developed by a young engineer at Texas Instruments named Jack St. Clair Kilby. He put together a few transistors and capacitors, linking them with a thin layer of ...

Maxim Integrated Products introduces the MAX16072-MAX16074 microprocessor supervisory circuits in a 1mm x 1mm chip-scale package. These low-power devices provide excellent circuit reliability and low ...

Diodes Incorporated's PT7M3808 is said to have a threshold accuracy from 0.5% and an adjustable delay time from 1.25ms to 10ms, enabling power-on reset functionality for microprocessor and other ...

Many microprocessor-based products require a manual-reset capability that allows the user, test technician, or external circuitry to reboot the system without a full power-down/power-up cycle. To ...

Maxim Integrated Products MAX16060/MAX16061/MAX16062 1% accurate, quad-/hex-/octal-voltage microprocessor supervisors. The supervisors offer accurate monitoring to maximise system reliability. To ...

A microprocessor is a complex, programmable integrated circuit (IC) on a single chip that can execute instructions. This generally includes CPUs found in computers but also refers to the ...

Cells in the body are wired like computer chips to direct signals that instruct how they function, research suggests. Unlike a fixed circuit board, however, cells can rapidly rewire their ...

This month marks the 50th anniversary of the microprocessor. But developments in these semiconductor chips, which are the heart of every electronic device, continue with gusto. Researchers at UK-based ...
