This article introduces the newest product to Lumissil's Microprocessor (MPU) portfolio: the X2600 family. This family utilizes a XBurst 2, a family of MIPS processors with FPU (Floating Point Unit) as well as SIMD (Single Instruction Multiple Data) among other advanced features, a RISC-V coprocessor, and a dedicated security processor.

Lumissil Microsystems is growing its portfolio of charge pump LED driver offerings for battery operated consumer, medical and IoT markets. These drivers are unique in that they use capacitors for energy storage and transfer, enabling voltage step-up (boost) without the need for costly inductors.

The IS32LT3168 is Lumissil's first device with an integrated Omnipolar Hall-effect sensor to enable magnetic sensing. Example applications includes LED lighting for automotive such as vanity mirror, glove compartment, car trunk, car door puddle light etc. It is also applicable in Industrial applications such as White Goods like refrigerator, washer dryer, interior lighting etc. Basically, anywhere there is a cover or lid or door that requires lighting upon opening or closing. The integrated Hall-effect sensor operates with either a north or south pole magnet to enable contactless control of LEDs or other on-board circuitry.

While advanced lighting solutions revolutionize in-car comfort and aesthetics, their integration presents significant challenges for automotive manufacturers, particularly in managing highspeed communication protocols like Controller Area Network (CAN). These systems require a rapid data exchange to ensure seamless and colorful lighting effects, which can be difficult to achieve in environments with high data traffic and complex system demands. To address these challenges, Lumissil has developed LUMIBUS™, a proprietary protocol designed to meet the demands of high-speed automotive lighting systems.
