Programmable alerts and configurable energy thresholds support responses to changing power conditions. The PAC1761 offers 12-bit measurement, while the PAC1861 offers 16-bit measurement. Both families are available now, with prices starting at $0.56 each in 10,000-unit quantities for specified MSOP-10 models.
Microchip Technology (MCHP) has completed its acquisition of Hailo, a provider of accelerated edge AI processors, vision processors, robotics processors and AI software technologies, as of September 21, 2026.
The acquisition adds Hailo’s AI accelerators and vision processors to Microchip’s existing embedded processing, FPGA, connectivity, security, analog and power portfolio, broadening its offerings for Edge AI, machine vision, robotics and Physical AI applications. The transaction terms were not disclosed and it is not expected to have a material impact on Microchip’s financial results. Hailo contributes an ecosystem with more than 100 customers and over 10,000 developers, plus broad engagement across open-source and AI development platforms.
Microchip plans to continue supporting Hailo’s current products, software environment and customer engagements, while investing in tools and next-generation technologies that simplify AI adoption at the intelligent edge.
Microchip Technology (MCHP), through its Silicon Storage Technology (SST) subsidiary, licensed its memBrain™ Synaptic Analog Generative Engine (SAGE) neuromorphic hardware IP to AnalogAI for use as the core inference engine in AnalogAI’s first real-world edge AI processors.
AnalogAI’s processors use a proprietary hardware-aware algorithm to train and run inference on-device in real time, targeting ultra‑low‑power edge applications such as environment‑adapting humanoid robots, drones and vehicles. By adopting SST’s SuperFlash®‑based memBrain SAGE IP, AnalogAI aims to deliver analog compute‑in‑memory performance at or below one watt. SST memBrain SAGE IP is deployed on 40 nm and 28 nm processes, with a roadmap that includes 22 nm development and full IP integration services and support.
Microchip Technology (MCHP) launched the SY757xx family of 1.2V-output LVCMOS clock buffers to link next-generation FPGAs, SoCs, AI accelerators and CPUs with higher-voltage clock sources.
The single‑chip devices replace discrete level‑shifting solutions, offering ultra‑low additive jitter down to 26 fs, frequency coverage from 0 Hz to 250 MHz, and voltage translation across 1.2V to 3.3V inputs to 1.2V–1.8V outputs. Three parts (SY75707TWL‑TR, SY75712TWL‑TR, SY75714TWL‑TR) are in volume production in 8‑pin VDFN/TDFN packages, priced from $0.50 to $0.83 in 10,000‑unit quantities, while eight additional variants are sampling with options for different input types and OE fanout buffering.
Microchip Technology (MCHP) and Marelli announced a joint solution that streams graphics and video from a vehicle’s central computer to in-car displays using the open-standard ASA Motion Link (ASA‑ML) connectivity.
The demonstrator processes content through Microchip’s VS7000 ASA‑ML chipset over a high-speed standardized link, while Marelli integrates the deserializer directly into displays to decode standardized video streams. The companies highlight open interoperability, greater supplier flexibility, integrated security with authentication and encryption, robust lossless data transmission with high electromagnetic noise immunity, scalable performance up to 16 Gbps, and efficiency features such as embedded Time Division Duplex (TDD) and simplified Forward Error Correction (FEC). The collaboration targets emerging software-defined and increasingly Ethernet-centric vehicle architectures.
Microchip Technology (Nasdaq: MCHP) introduced the Space CSAC-SA65, a radiation-tolerant Chip Scale Atomic Clock for New Space applications. The device targets small, low-cost satellites needing precise timing for short-duration missions such as satellite-to-cellular communications, alternative navigation and Earth imaging.
The CSAC-SA65 builds on the Space CSAC-SA45, extending radiation tolerance to at least 30 kRad and operating from –40°C to +80°C. It consumes less than 120 mW, occupies under 17 cc, integrates 1 PPS input/output for synchronization, and is designed for LEO missions using COTS radiation-tolerant components.
Microchip (Nasdaq: MCHP) released Revision 2.0 of its PolarFire FPGA Ethernet Sensor Bridge, a production-ready, 60% smaller board that supports twice the number of cameras compared to the first generation and is offered at a lower price point. The USB‑C powered platform targets compact, power‑ and space‑constrained edge AI systems built on NVIDIA Jetson and IGX.
The HSB-enabled design supports up to four cameras, features NVIDIA Jetson‑compatible connectors, on‑board optical latency measurement for end‑to‑end latency validation, and an FMC expansion connector plus PMOD for extensibility. It supports interfaces including MIPI CSI‑2, I²C, UART, GPIO, SLVS‑EC 2.0, 12G‑SDI, HDMI and DisplayPort, integrates Microchip timing and power‑management ICs, and is tightly aligned with the NVIDIA Holoscan SDK to accelerate development for medical, industrial and robotics edge AI applications.
