Hauppauge, New York August 18, 2004 – SMSC (Nasdaq: SMSC), the semiconductor suppliers to provide innovative solutions, Real Time Data Acquisition, spanning analog, digital and mixed-signal technologies, today announced the SCH3112, SCH3114 and SCH3116 family of pin-compatible chip hub system controller. A set of input / output (I / O) controller provides a flexible design, system designers in one part of a wide range of applications can be standardized with similar characteristics. Reaching a new level of integration reduces the total system cost, the scalability SMSC production, Real Time Data Acquisition, and development of the system.
SCH3112, SCH3114, SCH3116 family offers tremendous value, combining the functionality of the system usually requires more critical parts in a single device. By integrating intelligent, let the system costs low, perhaps while reducing board real estate requirements, "said Rob Stein, vice president of marketing, Embedded I / O at SMSC. With best in class technology for mixed-signal design of these devices also allow our customers an accuracy of a thermal control device integrated on the market today will be Reached with the first industrial temperature rated industry I / O controllers.
Benefits new products with high degree of integration through built-in embedded applications can now get up to 6 full universal asynchronous receiver / transmitter, Real Time Data Acquisition,, Real Time Data Acquisition, (UART), which eliminates the need for two separate devices or I / O chip UART is discrete. Increasing the number of serial ports, SMSC solutions not only with the general decline, as well as opportunities for cost Bill-of-material, because it requires additional components. In general, the new built-in I / O controllers provide up to 70 percent savings in board space through its compact 128-pin packaging VTQFP.
It 'very important, because the motherboard factors.In embedded market with a lesser form of discs, the integration of reset generators further reduces system cost. Integrating this functionality built-in controller I / O SMSC can deliver up to 40 percent savings if statement, compared to discrete components. reset generator allows implementation SMSC variable pulse width and contains a timer and cause critical temperature, which has become possible to deliver on multiple platforms with different operating system.
Thermal and voltage monitoring, which is crucial problems have focused on the design of reliable industrial computer systems. To ensure robust and reliable power, SMSC has to, Real Time Data Acquisition, provide equipment and ability to control heat, the industry has developed the most precise temperature sensor 1.5C for integrated device. Customers can now create a system that optimizes the temperature and acoustic data in today's computing environments and embedded applications. The main features of SCH3112, SCH3114, SCH3116 Controller: assessment of industrial temperature (-40C to +85 C) and 6 fully functional 16C550 serial ports with data transfer rate up to 1.
