Microchip Technology has introduced the MPLAB® PICkit™ Basic in-circuit debugger, aimed at making its advanced programming and debugging capabilities more accessible to engineers at all skill levels.

One of the reasons why robots and artificial intelligence programs — even very sophisticated ones — do not qualify as living things is because they lack the capacity for self-repair. Fry a machine's ...

Advanced plasma-based etching is a key enabler of Moore's Law that observes that the number of transistors on integrated circuits doubles nearly every two years. It is the plasma's ability to ...

The project uses serially programmable temperature sensor TCN75 that comes in a SO-8 packaging to produce a small thermometer board. The project uses serially programmable temperature sensor TCN75 ...

For decades, transistors - the heart of our computer chips - have been getting smaller and smaller. As a result, the electronic components in many devices can be made ever more compact, faster and ...

Practically every electronic device you own has something in common: they contain semiconductors, which are also known as microchips. Microchips are miniaturized integrated circuits, each designed to ...
