In order to help the developers to more easily added in the equipment, set up and manage a growing number of sensors, freescale semiconductor (NYSE: FSL) introduced a new type Xtrbureauic intelligent sensor hub, as a very advanced sensor fusion platform.
Freescale XtrbureauicFXLC95000CL sensor hub aims to go beyond basic 3 axis sensor market demand, it integrates the onboard acceleration sensor, able to manage multiple external sensors. The solution is not simply to deal with the raw data, but the resolution and control, sensor information support for sensor fusion algorithm for complex calculations, to make a more sensible system level decision provides an ideal platform.
Using sensor hub, designers can be a basic 3 axis acceleration sensor system effectively extended to a height measurement function, an ambient light sensor, temperature sensor, humidity sensor and other functions of the complete 9 axis inertial measurement unit. Excellent extensibility and integration capabilities allow the local processing, sensor data from the host processor uninstall computation period, finally reduce the power consumption of the system, improve the performance.
Freescale's vice President and sensor and actuator BclodhkTaheri solutions division general manager, said: & other; As more and more daily products equipped with sensors, system designers are faced with the challenge of more and more complex, both need to be able to effectively manage all the sensor data, also want to consider the future of potential function. Open architecture and freescale hub solutions provides designers with appropriate flexibility, they can create innovative applications, without having to change the hardware. In addition, it also allows designers to other sensors connected to the hub, thus increasing the support the kinds of applications - from medical monitoring to improve the accuracy of the golf swing, etc. Throughout the &;
XtrbureauicFXLC95000CL integrates a 32-bit cutkeepgdcbureaufeincrease1MCU kernel, 128 k flash, 6 kclash, an open architecture, and provides a set of code development tools support the development, including the award-winning owephyassaulringmemberingetropolisr integrated development environment (IDE). To help quickly began to product development, the freescale also provides a software library suite, the suite covers the freescale MQX&hormoneierarchst; Operating system, a hardware abstraction layer, a sensor manager and the popular applications, such as electronic compass software. Programmability of open architecture and API support ability makes software developers can quickly create an intelligent platform of multiple sensors to manage a variety of applications, including a pedometer, impact event tracking, 9 axis inertial measurement unit, context awareness solutions, equipment direction detection solutions, etc.
