State-of-the-art Digital Health Devices - Ambiq Medical

Ambiq's Ultra low power SPOT technology to enable state-of-the-art Digital Health Devices
Digital Health is becoming a more adopted form of treatment in the healthcare industry because it reduces barriers to patients receiving effective care from providers. With Ambiq enabling energy-efficient edge AI. the adoption of digital health devices will continue to grow as patients and providers can count on longer-lasting batteries.

If you like to discuss how this can improve your device by adding features or extend the battery life, please reach out to your TOP-team.

Ambiq will be attending the Medica show in Dusseldorf, November 11-14, 2024, booth number 13C59 in Hall 13, where you can book a meeting with the team.

Precision Analog

8-Channel Parallel High Voltage Driver

AIC1513

The new AIC1513 is a rigid, low-cost general purpose high voltage driver IC with 8 parallel push-pull outputs.

The device has been designed for harsh industrial applications and allows a wide application area. The high voltage push-pull outputs are well protected against possible latch-up by using the bulk-drain diodes of the output MOSFETs and their full dielectric isolation. 

External output resistors can be used to limit the maximum power dissipation of the device, allowing the outputs to be run in parallel. The IC also allows the use of an external resistor to set the switch-on time of the outputs and provides protected direct transistor gate inputs. 
 
Features
• Supply voltage: 30 V - 300 V 
• Output current per channel is 40mA 
• Output rise time control by external resistance 
• Serial or parallel input 
• N-channel MOSFET outputs for reduced power consumption 
 
Applications
• Drive of Capacitive Actuators 
• Piezo Transducer Excitation 
• Electro-Luminescent Displays
 
8-Channel parallel high voltage driver

Photo receiver amplifier IC

AIC1638
The AIC1638 is an integrated receiver amplifier designed for high-sensitivity photo diodes.  
Filtering ambient light and amplifying the detected pulses from a photo diode, the conditioned signals are used for driving a current mirror output stage.

Due to the integrated polarity protection the device can be used in a multiplexed configuration, simplifying the wiring of the application. 

The AIC1638 is optimized to minimize the need for external components. It can be used for light sensing applications ranging from a few millimeters to several meters. 
 
Features
• High sensitivity  
• Two-wire digital output interface 
• Ultra-small footprint 
• Low power 
• Excellent ESD robustness (HBM) 
 
Applications
• Smoke Detectors 
• Fluid Detection 
• Light Barriers 
• Light Curtains

Steppin motor combo - TOP-electronics
RTA upgraded their Combo Units

HI-MOD ETS is a series of stepper motors with integrated EtherCAT drive. It is equipped with STO Function, based on battery-less, multi-turn absolute encoder and recently upgraded to enable 140Vdc power supply. 

These series are also able to deliver torque at medium-high speeds up to 140% of the medium-voltage equivalent. 

The combo units offer increased power, new M12 connectors and optimized encoder feedback. 

Features
• Battery-less, multi-turn absolute encoder
• Can be used with Full Closed Loop or Auto-Sync feedback function
• Upgraded to reach a torque value up to 140% of the medium-voltage equivalent 
• M12 connectors for simpler wiring
• STO Function - SIL3 with Error Detection Monitor 
• Power supply up to 140Vdc
