STMicroelectronics has announced that Rias Al-Kadi, General Manager of the Company’s Range and Connectivity Division, has joined the board of directors of the FiRa Consortium, the industry body dedicated to advancing secured fine ranging and positioning ultra-wideband (UWB) technology.

ST is actively driving the development the IEEE 802.15.4ab amendment, building upon previous UWB enhancements to further improve system performance and expand UWB’s application scope. The ongoing evolution of UWB standards promises significant improvements, including centimeter-level accuracy, enhanced security, and reduced power consumption. These improvements are critical for enabling a wide range of applications, from automotive access and digital keys to smart home automation and IoT innovations. Integrating IEEE 802.15.4ab into the CCC Digital Key ecosystem would represent a major step forward in addressing implementation challenges and accelerate broader adoption of UWB technology in both consumer and automotive markets.

“STMicroelectronics has long been a valued member of the FiRa Consortium, and we are thrilled to welcome them at the Sponsor level. This upgrade is a reflection of ST’s deepening commitment to the future of Ultra-Wideband technology and to FiRa’s mission. We are especially pleased to have Rias Al-Kadi, General Manager of ST’s Ranging and Connectivity Division, join our Board of Directors. His experience and leadership will be instrumental as we continue to expand UWB’s global impact and shape the future of secure, interoperable solutions,” states SK Yong, FiRa Consortium Board Chairman.

“Joining the FiRa board underlines our commitment to advancing the CCC Digital Key and other UWB-based applications,” said Rias Al-Kadi, General Manager, Ranging and Connectivity Division, STMicroelectronics. “By deeply engaging in standardization and certification across all major UWB groups, we are helping to shape the future of UWB technology to deliver maximum value for consumers and industries alike.”

Rias Al-Kadi’s appointment further strengthens ST’s active participation in key UWB standards bodies and consortia, including the IEEE, Connected Car Consortium (CCC), Connectivity Standards Alliance (CSA), and UWB Alliance. Through strategic participation in these groups, ST supports the continuous evolution of UWB technology aimed at enhancing user experiences and lowering system costs, particularly in consumer and automotive access applications. This aligns with ST’s vision to foster a robust UWB ecosystem that enables seamless, secure, and cost-effective solutions for the growing UWB market.

In this article, we'll analyze the single-tuned discriminator for FM-to-AM conversion. We'll then discuss the balanced discriminator and how it provides improved linearity across a wider bandwidth.

I just parts-salvaged a Metz camera flash with a burnt-out charging transformer, and found this vintage beauty on the inside. Tell me what you think! submitted by /u/A55H0L3_WindowsXP [link] [comments]

This bloody LM2576-33 (new) gave out 10V instead of 3,3V. Killed two STM32 before I figured out WTH was going on. I am, of course, going to widlarize it, as it it written in the ancient scrolls. submitted by /u/Defiant-Appeal4340 [link] [comments]

After addressing the issue with the shorted Kelvin Leads this instrument a FNIRSI LC2010E, it has so far proven to be a handy tool to have going above and beyond my Fluke DMM. Symptoms were erroneous readings and it would fail the lead calibration check on the short setting. FNIRSI support has also has responded well sending a replacement. submitted by /u/NoAnything604 [link] [comments]

Today I milled another working pcb (for practice) and its turned out great! In the basic TP4056 chip, only replaced the leds with bigger ones. submitted by /u/Big_Lack_ [link] [comments]
