Arduino Portenta Environmental Monitoring Bundle

In this episode of Chalk Talk, Jordan Nolen from Digi, Kirk Benell from SparkFun Electronics and Chris Boross from Raspberry Pi and Amelia Dalton delve into the details of the SparkFun Digi X-ON Kit for LoRaWAN®. They examine the motivation behind the creation of this kit, the benefits that the IoT Node board for LoRaWAN brings to the table, and how the SparkFun Digi X-ON Kit for LoRaWAN can get your next design up and running in no time. 

In this episode of Chalk Talk, David Doan from ROHM Semiconductor and Amelia Dalton explore the what, where, and how of current sense amplifiers. They also examine the role that topology and common-mode voltage play when selecting a current sense amplifier and the variety of benefits that ROHM Semiconductor current sense amplifiers bring to the table.   

PMICs are central to a successful power strategy for a variety of applications including IIoT, smart home and health and fitness designs. In this episode of Chalk Talk, Kalyan Siddabattula from NXP and Amelia Dalton explore the benefits of NXP’s IoT System PMICs, how this solution compares to discrete regulators, and how you can get started using NXP’s power management system solutions in your next design. 

Properly measuring air quality can be a complex process. In this episode of Chalk Talk, Rick Zanardo from Sensirion and Amelia Dalton chat about the key parameters that determine air quality and the challenges of air quality measurement. They also explore the details of the SEN6X All-in-one combo sensor module, how this integrated solution can lower your BOM and assembly costs, and how you can get started using it in your next design.

In this episode of Chalk Talk, Jiri Keprda from STMicroelectronics and Amelia Dalton explore the benefits of the powerSTEP01 is a system-in-package from STMicroelectronics. They also examine how this solution can streamline overall position control architecture, the high level commands included in this solution and the variety of advanced diagnostics included in the powerSTEP01 system-in-package.

All major truck and bus OEMs will be launching electric vehicle platforms within the next few years and in order to keep pace with on-highway and off-highway EV innovation, our charging inlets must also provide the voltage, current and charging requirements needed for these vehicles. In this episode of Chalk Talk, Amelia Dalton and Drew Reetz from TE Connectivity investigate charging inlet design considerations for the next generation of industrial and commercial transportation, the differences between AC only charging and fast charge and high power charging inlets, and the benefits that TE Connectivity’s ICT high power charging inlets bring to these kinds of designs.
