Future Electronics has signed a global distribution agreement with semiconductor start-up Ambiq Micro. Founded in 2010, Ambiq Micro has developed breakthrough technology based on a patented Subthreshold Power Optimised Technology (SPOT) platform that reduces the amount of power consumed by semiconductors. Ambiq Micro’s initial product is what is claimed as the world’s lowest power real-time clock (RTC). Ambiq will also soon be announcing a new family of very low power microcontroller (MCU) devices that further leverages Ambiq’s SPOT technology. The devices are an ideal solution for energy critical applications. Ambiq Micro’s CEO and President Mark Foley commented: “The SPOT platform has redefined the meaning of ‘ultra-low power’ in the electronics industry at a time when there is an explosion in demand for small, battery-powered products. We are delighted to partner with a distributor whose technical strengths will help designers take full advantage of the breakthrough reductions in energy consumption that…
