The PIC16F1934, PIC16LF1934, PIC16F1936, PIC16LF1936, PIC16F1937 and PIC16LF1937 are the first six members of the PIC16F193X family of microcontrollers (MCUs) featuring its enhanced Mid-range 8-bit core. The new family extends Microchip’s PIC(R) MCU portfolio of over 550 compatible members, targeting a wide variety of applications in the appliance, consumer, industrial, medical and automotive markets. The family’s increased memory and core capabilities deliver enhanced support for both C and Assembly programmers, and “LF” family members feature Microchip’s nanoWatt XLP technology. With a total of 49 instructions, the PIC16F193X microcontrollers optimize program code and data handling, while increasing efficiency and reducing clock cycles...

The mTouch™ AR1000 Resistive Touch-Screen Controllers is the embedded industry’s most innovative analog resistive touch-screen controllers. The AR1000 controllers further solidify Microchip’s position of having the broadest touch-controller product offering in the semiconductor industry. Prior to the AR1000 controller, embedded systems implementing resistive-touch user interfaces were limited to basic Analog-to-Digital Converters (ADCs) that required extensive development and integration. The AR1000 controllers eliminate this type of trial-and-error engineering by providing sophisticated, proprietary touch-screen decoding algorithms that enable applications to receive fully processed, reliable touch coordinates...

Free communications intellectual property (IP) blocks for the NI LabVIEW FPGA Module make possible to add serial peripheral interface (SPI) and inter-integrated circuit (I2C) devices to embedded systems developed on NI reconfigurable I/O (RIO) hardware platforms. National Instruments also has been working with component suppliers such as Analog Devices to develop drivers for common components such as microelectromechanical system (MEMS) sensors so that engineers and scientists quickly can integrate accelerometers, gyroscopes, temperature and other sensors into their embedded systems. Using new LabVIEW FPGA IP, engineers and scientists easily can incorporate devices based on SPI and I2C, two of the most widely used types of embedded digital communication protocols, with NI RIO hardware including the CompactRIO programmable automation controller (PAC), NI Single-Board RIO embedded devices and R Series multifunction RIO devices..

A wireless sensor network (WSN) platform is a complete remote monitoring solution that consists of NI LabVIEW graphical programming software and new reliable, low-power wireless measurement nodes. The NI WSN platform takes advantage of more than 30 years of NI data acquisition system leadership to deliver an easy-to-use solution that provides high-quality measurement data, the flexibility to manage power consumption and the ability to customize wireless hardware for added functionality. The NI WSN platform provides the ease-of-use necessary to quickly configure and deploy wireless sensors in a wide range of applications. National Instruments is releasing its first two WSN nodes and plans to expand the measurement capabilities of the NI WSN platform...
