Smart Sensors Are Key To The IIoT
Swindon custom IC solutions will help you make them smarter!!
Smart sensors enable the more accurate and automated collection of data from a wide variety of physical sources. They are used as monitoring and control mechanisms across a wide variety of environments and provide the interface between the physical world and the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT).
The smart sensor is a crucial and integral element in the IIoT, the increasingly prevalent environment in which almost anything imaginable can be fitted with a unique identifier (UID) and the ability to transmit data over the Internet or a similar network.
At a minimum, a smart sensor is made of a sensor, a microprocessor and communication technology of some kind.
All of these smart sensor features, and a variety of other functions, can be integrated into an Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) or a System in Package (SiP) solution, which offers huge advantages over traditional board level solutions and will enable your product to be technically and commercially better than your competition.
ASICs and SiPs – Some of the benefits
An ASIC or SiP brings many benefits to a new design and also to an established product. Here are some compelling reasons why an ASIC or a SiP makes perfect sense.
It’s unique – designed specific to your requirement
Power saving – designed to meet your power budget
