To help those looking to elevate industrial operations with application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) solutions, Swindon Silicon Systems will be exhibiting at SENSOR+TEST 2025, taking place from 6 to 8 May at the Nürnberg Exhibition Centre in Germany. The company will demonstrate how mixed-signal ASIC solutions can boost performance, efficiency and reliability in industrial operations.
As manufacturers increasingly implement Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) technologies, advanced automation and AI-driven decision-making into their operations, the demand for high-performance, application-specific electronics continues to grow.
At the core of this transformation lies sensor technology. Smart sensors have enabled manufacturers to monitor equipment health, track environmental conditions and optimise production processes in real-time. By continuously measuring temperature, vibration, pressure and other critical parameters, sensors provide the data to enhance productivity and minimise waste. With rising pressure to meet sustainability targets,
manufacturers are continually seeking more intelligent, energy-efficient and reliable sensor technology to improve operational efficiency.
However, off-the-shelf components often struggle to process the sheer volume of data generated by smart sensors at the required rate, resulting in inefficiencies and excessive power consumption. This is where custom solutions can make a significant difference. Unlike standard components, ASICs are designed specifically for their intended application, granting higher performance and productivity thanks to enhanced functionality.
At SENSOR+TEST, Swindon Silicon experts will be on hand to advise visitors of the benefits custom IC solutions can bring to a diverse array of applications, offering one-to-one consultations from their stand.
“To effectively handle the continuous flow of real-time data from sensors, while maintaining low power consumption, custom solutions are essential,” explains Ross Turnbull, Director of Business Development and Product Engineering at Swindon Silicon Systems. “By consolidating multiple functions, such as signal processing, data conversation and communication, into a single chip, ASICs offer a highly reliable, low-latency solution to modern manufacturing demands.
“Mixed-signal ASICs take this a step further by integrating both analogue and digital functionality,” continues Turnbull. “These solutions eliminate the need for separate analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) and other discrete components, ultimately lowering system complexity, size and power consumption. With sustainability a key priority for Industry 5.0, mixed-signal ASICs provide an energy-efficient, compact solution that supports the development of more intelligent and productive industrial systems.”
