The ASSP addresses the dramatic divergence between yesterday’s image resolution and the high resolution of today’s audio-visual (AV) display systems, and supports the low-voltage differential signaling (LVDS) interface, a technology extensively adopted in broad ranges of flat panel displays, projectors for digital TVs (DTVs) and PC monitors. NEC Electronics and NEC Central Research Laboratories jointly developed a new technology that enables very high-resolution processing with just one frame of image data. NEC Electronics has been releasing super-resolution ASSPs based on this new technology since November 2008. The company has named its super-resolution ASSP lineup the “NeoClearResolution™ (Bikaizo™)” and now offers the new µPD9281GC NeoClearResolution ASSP with LVDS interface...
NEC Electronics Announces Twelve New 16-bit All Flash Microcontrollers with Built-In USB 2.0 Function

NEC Electronics announced twelve new 16-bit All Flash™ microcontrollers (MCUs) (six 48-pin MCUs (78K0R/KC3-L) and six 64-pin MCUs (78K0R/KE3-L)) with built-in Universal Serial Bus (USB) 2.0 function. USB 2.0 is an interface standard used in PCs and peripherals. With its fast data transfer and connectivity, USB 2.0 is now also widely used in consumer electronics devices such as digital audio visual (A/V) appliances and healthcare appliances, as well as factory automation (FA) equipment such as measurement systems. The consumer electronics devices and healthcare diagnostic instruments also include systems that are battery driven, such as portable audio players and blood glucose meters. Therefore, system designers of these devices and manufacturers are concerned about power consumption and battery life...
