PRODUCT SHOWCASE
Bluetooth 5.3 IP
CEVA, Inc. has released its RivieraWaves Bluetooth 5.3 IP. With Bluetooth 5.3 comes new features including En- hanced Periodic Advertising and LE Connection Subrating, all designed to improve pro- tocol efficiency in terms of power and latency. Link ro- bustness is also enhanced with the LE Channel Classifi- cation signaling, as is wire- less security with
improvements in the HCI En- cryption Key Size Control. The enhancements in the stan- dard by the Bluetooth SIG coupled with the ultra-low power architecture of the RivieraWaves Bluetooth IP platform gives chip design- ers a winning edge in the highly competitive wireless consumer market.
ML based tool C
adence Design Systems, Inc.’s Cerebrus Intelligent Chip Explorer is a new machine learning (ML)-based tool that automates and scales digital chip design.
With the addition of Cerebrus, Cadence offers an advanced ML-enabled digital full flow, from synthesis through implementa- tion and signoff. The new tool is cloud enabled and utilises highly scalable compute resources from leading cloud providers to rapidly meet design require- ments across a wide range of markets including consumer, hy- perscale computing, 5G com- munications, automotive and mobile.

eview Display Systems (RDS) has introduced a new 8.0-inch P-series TFT display module from Tianma. The P0800WVF1MA00 features WVGA (800 x 480 pixels) reso- lution, a 15:9 wide aspect ratio, an extended operating tem- perature range and highly consistent colour image re- production.
R
The Tianma P-series (Profes- sional series) TFT display mod- ules have been designed to meet the demands of the in- dustrial and medical display markets where dependable and reliable operation is a ne- cessity.
www.review-displays.co.uk Intelligent OLED Controller for automotive
elexis has developed an intelligent OLED controller with the active components needed to realise combined point (LED) and area (OLED) lighting applications inside and outside the ve- hicle. Each MLX81130 can drive 25 LEDs/OLEDs and supports the Melexis Light Bus (MeLiBu) in- terface. It allows simpler static and animated lighting system development. It is especially suitable for Rear Combination Lamps (RCL) or small OLED displays.
M
Designed to support ASIL B system integration, the MLX81130 in a QFN 5x5 package features 25 pro- grammable constant current sources. It has been designed to operate in single-master, multiple- slave configurations.
Automotive engineers will appreciate that using LEDs alongside OLEDs typically requires two types of drivers, with two controllers and possibly two entire sub-systems that are not easily integrated. The MLX81130 overcomes this, thanks to independently programma- ble outputs that can drive both LEDs and OLEDs.

Upgraded Sampling Oscilloscope A
nritsu Cor- poration has released Sig-
nal Processing Software Option- 098 adding up- graded functions for evaluating PAM4*1 differential electrical signals to the BERTWave
Sampling Oscilloscope MP2110A.
Data centers are currently switching to PAM4 optical modules to cope with the large increase in communications traffic on mobile networks. Additionally, in line with the need for easier con- figuration of flexible networks, PAM4 optical modules for commu- nications support many more communications speeds, ranging from 50 to 800 Gbit/s, than the conventional NRZ*3 technology. However, with PAM4 optical modules supporting different speeds, the various module types must also be supported at the equipment side. Furthermore, under the conventional system, network equipment and optical modules were procured from the same vendor, but the drive to cut costs is seeing users source equipment and modules from different vendors. In these circumstances, interconnectivity must be assured, not only between interfaces at the optical side but also at the elec- trical side. Assuring this interconnectivity requires strict evalua- tion based on the IEEE 802.3 PHY-layer standards. To meet these upgraded interconnectivity requirements, while continuing to support PAM4 optical interface measurements, An- ritsu has now added support for measurement of IEEE 802.3 PAM4 electrical interfaces to its MP2110A, used as a sampling oscillo- scope for manufacturing optical modules.

Siglent 2- and 4-Port 4.5/8.5GHz Vector Network Analysers
aelig Company, Inc. has introduced its Siglent SNA5000A series of 2- and 4- port Vector Network Analysers, which offer a frequency analysis range of 9kHz up to 8.5GHz with a resolution of 1Hz, a dynamic range of 125dB, and a level resolution of 0.05dB. The Siglent SNA5000A series consists of four models (2- or 4-port, 4.5GHz or
S
8.5GHz maximum frequency) that support measurements such as scattering, differ- ential, and time-domain parameters, Q- factor, and filter bandwidth and insertion loss.
Vector Network Analysers combine a sig- nal stimulus source output and receiver inputs to measure changes to the stimu-
lus caused by a device being tested. SNA5000A VNAs feature measurements that include impedance conversion, movement of measurement plane, limit testing, ripple test, fixture simulation, and adapter re- moval/insertion adjustments. Bias-tees are also supported.
