| SMPS interactive design simulator - efficient power-supply design in three easy steps
STMicroelectronics' SMPS design simulator greatly simplifies the task of power-supply designers by guiding them through the selection of products and topologies. Simply fill in the high-level I/O specifications, and select among the list of recommended ICs. You can then refine the suggested design based on the resources provided: fully annotated schematic, BOM, inductor selector, freewheeling diode selector, time domain graph, bode diagram, efficiency variation, power loss analysis and device datasheets and application notes.

| New silicon tuner supports standard and high definition digital-terrestrial TV
ST’s new silicon tuner, the STV4100, addresses growing global demand for digital STBs and integrated digital televisions (iDTVs) as countries worldwide switch from analog to digital television broadcasting. The STV4100 saves up to 30 separate components compared to traditional 'can tuners', has a compact QFN 5 x 5 mm footprint, and requires no adjustment. In addition, the operating current of only 600 mA helps minimize the power consumption of products such as set-top boxes, iDTVs, and PC-TV receivers. With this introduction, ST now offers complete chipsets for standard-definition (SD) or high-definition (HD) digital-terrestrial receivers. The STV4100 meets all DVB-T standards including DTG, Nordig Unified v2.0, and Digitenne. More

| TS4982 - boosting audio quality with 3D effects on multimedia PC notebooks
The TS4982 integrates all analog and mixed-signal audio functions needed in high-end PC notebooks or portable audio multimedia applications. The TS4982 uses an enhanced referenced-ground stereo headset drive with independent shutdown control and dedicated audio inputs for both outputs. In addition, a built-in internal 4-step gain control for the loudspeaker amplifier and a fixed 3.5 dB gain for the headphone amplifier minimize external component needs. The TS4982’s small 5x5 QFN package provides optimal space saving on your PCB. More

| STTH10LCD06, STTH10LCD06C, STTH20LCD06C - boost diodes for PFCs in LCD SMPS
The STTH10LCD06 uses ST's Turbo2 technology. This device is suited for power applications in flat panel displays and in particular for switching power supplies in LCDs. The STTH10LCD06C and STTH20LCD06C also use ST's Turbo2 technology. These devices are particularly suited for switching power supplies working with interleaved PFCs. More

| Online presentation introduces STM32 Connectivity Line
This fast-paced, self-narrated, 25 minute multimedia presentation introduces you to the STM32 Connectivity line: an extension to ST's successful ARM Cortex 32-bit MCU family, with new connectivity features including embedded Ethernet, USB OTG, dual CAN, and audio-class I²S. A Chinese version can be viewed here. After a short review of the original STM32 family, the presentation examines the new features that are included in the Connectivity line, reviews specific applications that are made possible by these products, concludes by looking at the large number of supporting software and hardware tools designed to quickly help integrate these microcontrollers into your products.
