Matter - The groundbreaking smart home and building automation standard
In today's dynamic B2B landscape, connectivity, interoperability, and scalability aren't just buzzwords – they're prerequisites for success.
Matter is?a groundbreaking smart home and building automation standard that is set to redefine how businesses approach IoT and smart technology.
It represents a significant advancement in the world of IoT and smart technology. Matter is designed to create a unified and open-source ecosystem for various devices and platforms, enabling interoperability and simplifying the development of smart devices. It aims to standardize communication protocols, making it easier for different devices, such as thermostats, lights, and security systems, to work together seamlessly. This standard has the potential to revolutionize the way businesses approach IoT by providing a common language for devices to communicate, improving user experiences, and fostering innovation in the smart technology industry.?

Small Footprint, Big Impact Packaging Solutions from Nexperia
With rapidly evolving requirements, there is a pressing demand for smaller footprints now prevalent throughout most markets for electronic products. Space-saving, thermally efficient, and robust semiconductor packages are needed for transistors and diodes. While for many product generations, designers have relied on established packages like the SOT23 and SMA families, we see the high-performing clip-bond and leadless package outlines such as CFP and DFN clearly winning on value for money. These packages provide significant product diversity, covering single/dual configurations, thereby simplifying board design. CFP and DFN are suitable for a wide range of applications, including automotive, industrial, consumer, and computing applications.
The onsemi AR2020 Image Sensor
AR2020, belongs to onsemi's Hyperlux LP product family, it's a 1/1.8?inch Back-Side Illuminated (BSI) Stacked CMOS digital image sensor with a 5120 x 3840 active?pixel array. This advanced sensor captures images in either linear or enhanced Dynamic Range (eDR) modes, with a rolling?shutter readout. The AR2020 is architected & designed to deliver high?quality performance consuming very low power. It is supported by a 1.4 μm BSI pixel from onsemi and delivers excellent performance in lowlight & NIR wavelengths. The features of the AR2020 provides a powerful data-capturing device at the edge that can be programmed through several options to deliver optimal bandwidth at very low power.
