STMicroelectronics, a global semiconductor leader serving customers across the spectrum of electronics applications, has introduced a new generation of energy-conscious and cost-effective microcontrollers (MCUs) that can reduce energy consumption by up to 50% compared to previous product generations. This enables less frequent battery replacements, minimizes the impact of discarded batteries, …

The measurement of low flow is becoming widely used in many industries. However, the smaller the flow, the trickier it is to control and measure, and finding a suitable flow measuring technology at reasonable cost can prove challenging for both users and flow sensor manufacturers. There is no set definition …

In the fast-paced manufacturing environment, we understand the challenges that manual data capture poses – inaccuracies, uncertainty about machine statuses, and missed opportunities for process improvement. This can make managing or supervising these operations difficult, as not having a clear view of when your machines are running or stopped can …
