Single-chip control of PC Card interfaces
Arrow Electronics has a family of compact, highly integrated and power-efficient PC Card controllers that will help designers to lower component count, save space and reduce power consumption.
The seminars, one held at Arrow's Regional Business Centre in Reading and the other in Leeds, featured practical, hands-on training focused on interfacing a 3.5in quarter-VGA TFT screen to a Sharp ARM Bluestreak family processor, via a dedicated development kit.
delegates were able to hone their skills working with a combination of development kits from Logic Product Development (LogicPD) featuring Sharp LH79524 MCU, and state-of-the-art Hitachi TX09D70 3.5in quarter-VGA TFT display modules.
As well as gaining valuable practical experience with leading-edge technology, delegates obtained an overview from Phaedrus systems of the ways in which IAR Systems development tools can simplify and speed the product development process for target applications.
Customer feedback was very positive - and as an added bonus for some of those who attended, six lucky prise winners, three at each seminar, received a complete Logic Sharp ARM development kit, and 12 received an IAR J-Link.
delegates were also entitled to a free extension of their EWARM software past the standard 30-day evaluation time limit.
