NXP Semiconductors Powers the Touch of Automation
NXP Semiconductors' i.MX RT500 crossover microcontrollers are suitable for secure and low-power embedded HMI applications, IoT devices, hearables and smart consumer devices. The dual-core MCU family is based on cores with clock speeds up to 200MHz. . MCUs are built on a foundation of secure boot, debug, and lifecycle management, and are designed to defend against remote and software-local attacks. The i.MX RT500 provides power control and power management features that allow the device to operate at the lowest possible power.

Microchip Technology's maXTouch Node touchscreen controllers accurately measure, classify and track the number of individual touches with short response times. These controllers are suitable for automotive, home appliances, medical and industrial applications. The maXTouch controller can detect touch through thick gloves and glass lenses while providing immunity to water and external and display noise. Combined with a state-of-the-art CPU, these controllers use a charge transfer acquisition engine to use Microchip Technology's patented capacitive sensing method.

Designers find Phoenix Contact displays and keyboards easy to customize. These displays are suitable for a wide range of industrial applications, including information displays in offices and conference rooms. Designers can also configure individual membrane keyboards online by adjusting shape, color and printing to desired specifications. The housing design allows the display to be integrated flush with the front of the housing.
