SENT is a digital point-to-point communication scheme for use in applications where high-resolution sensor data needs to be transmitted from a sensor to a control unit. It constitutes a low-cost alternative to the LIN and CAN bus standards for the automotive industry, e.g. for the transmission of the exhaust temperature to the engine control unit (ECU). IMMS’ newest release of its SENT transmitter IP “D2026C” now supports the transmission of up to 16-bit data from two independent sensors. The soft IP module is a flexibly configurable implementation of a SENT transmitter according to SAE…
Ilmenau, 22.09.2014. On Friday at the ANALOG 2014 conference in Hannover, Germany, IMMS researchers received the Best Paper Award for their article and lecture "A System Architecture for an Integrated Electrostatic MEMS Energy Harvesting Module". This work on the development of miniaturized energy harvesters will establish innovative supply options for self-powered wireless microsensor networks.
The presented topic was part of the the GreenSense research project which started in 2012. GreenSense sees IMMS doing R&D on a modular technological platform in association…
