Mouser Electronics™, an industry-leading New Product Introduction (NPI) distributor supplying the widest variety of semiconductors and electronic components, recently announced the availability of various new IoT development kits and prototyping platforms.

Mouser announced on the 12th that it is supplying a wide range of development kits to accelerate IoT prototyping and deployment.

Leading the technological competition is an important consideration for product engineering teams responsible for designing IoT solutions. Utilizing systematically documented, integrated, and wirelessly connected development kits can accelerate prototyping and allow engineers to focus on differentiating product features without feeling burdened by hardware decisions.

Key products in the IoT development kits and connectivity modules supplied by Mouser include the STMicroelectronics STEVAL-STWINBX1 development kit, the Nordic Semiconductor Thingy:53 platform, and the NXP Semiconductor SLN-VIZNAS development kit.

The STMicroelectronics STEVAL-STWINBX1 development kit is ideal for prototyping a wide range of industrial IoT sensing applications, such as condition monitoring and predictive maintenance.

Based on the ultra-low power Arm Cortex-M33 STM32U585AI microcontroller with a floating-point unit, this kit features multiple integrated sensors suitable for industrial applications and is packaged in an enclosure equipped with a 480mAh LiPo battery.

The sensor includes an ultra-wideband, low-noise 3-axis digital vibration sensor, a 3-axis magnetometer, an integrated accelerometer, and an iNEMO gyroscope inertial measurement unit.

Environmental sensors include digital barometers, temperature sensors, and analog and digital microphones. The firmware library and companion cloud application support a wide range of hardware functions.

The Nordic Semiconductor Thingy:53 platform, based on the Nordic Semiconductor nRF5340 dual-core Arm Cortex M-33, is a low-power platform that supports multiple 2.4GHz wireless protocols and provides debug and current measurement capabilities as well as support for embedded machine learning development with nRF Edge Impulse applications.

The onboard environmental sensors measure temperature, humidity, air quality, and atmospheric pressure, and also include color and light sensors.

Low-power accelerometers and 6-axis inertial measurement units are also included in the sensor lineup of the Thingy:53 platform.

The platform's machine learning capabilities support various applications, including speech recognition and motion pattern detection.

Other products on this platform include power management ICs, nRF21540 wireless front-end modules, and integrated power amplifiers/low-noise amplifiers (PA/LNA).

NXP’s NXP SLN-VIZNAS development kit is an ideal solution for developers looking to add face recognition and 2D or 3D liveness detection capabilities to IoT devices, enabling them to design turnkey offline applications for a wide range of residential, industrial, hospitality, and access control products.

Equipped with an NXP i.MX RT117F crossover processor running at speeds up to 1 GHz, this kit can run the NXP i.MX RT runtime library for 3D face recognition, which includes image capture, face alignment, face tracking, face detection, face recognition, and biometric detection capabilities.

The SLN-VIZN3D-IOT kit also includes a remote registration feature that allows end users to register their faces from mobile devices.

In the first quarter of 2023, Mouser shipped more than 15,000 new parts. More innovative new products can be found at https://info.mouser.com/new_Products/.
