 In-Booth Training Classes - Booth 201 

Ethernet Solutions   (Level: Intermediate) 
Ethernet’s capabilities and ubiquitous deployment make it unrivaled among communications standards. Embedded designers wishing to add this capability to their systems are often faced with challenges not found in the networking world. This class presents Microchip’s solutions to these challenges. Learn about cost-effective and easy-to-use wired Ethernet and WiFi solutions. Products, software and development tools for implementations using our stand-alone Ethernet controller, our family of microcontrollers with on-chip Ethernet controller and WiFi solutions will be discussed. 

Human Interface Solutions (Touch Sense and Graphics)   (Level: Introductory) 
In this session attendees will learn about the hardware and software solutions from Microchip that can help them easily integrate a touch solution into their next design. Whether to reduce cost and improve reliability through the elimination of buttons or provide a reconfigurable interface through the use of a graphical display, touch sensitive user interfaces are showing up everywhere. 

Innovations in 8-bit Microcontrollers   (Level: Introductory) 
Innovation is still taking place in the world of 8-bit microcontrollers. From architectural enhancements to low power designs to enhanced peripherals, 8-bit microcontrollers are being upgraded in many ways that can increase the performance and lower the cost of your designs. This session will highlight some of the recent advances in Microchip’s PIC® families of 8-bit microcontrollers and the benefits and advantages you can reap from them.Innovation is still taking place in the world of 8-bit microcontrollers.

nanoWatt XLP eXtreme Low Power Solutions   (Level: Introductory) 
Microchip’s eXtreme Low Power solutions can drive your battery applications for years longer than competing ultra low power MCUs. Learn more about microcontrollers with nanoWatt XLP technology – featuring the world’s lowest power in Sleep mode (down to 20 nA), along with an extreme low power Watchdog Timer and a unique hardware Real-Time Clock & Calendar that operate in the new Deep Sleep mode. This session will feature a live demo and cover: What is nanoWatt XLP Technology? How can applications benefit from nanoWatt XLP technology? Why are Microchip’s eXtreme Low Power offerings are better than competing MCUs? Which 8 & 16-bit MCUs feature nanoWatt XLP technology? How can I get started quickly with XLP technology? 

RF – ZigBee® and MiWi™ Solutions   (Level: Intermediate) 
Embedded engineers are increasingly being asked to add short-range, low cost point to point or networked wireless communication to their systems. This session will present two alternatives from Microchip to solve this problem: the interoperable ZigBee protocol and the proprietary MiWi protocol. Attendees will understand the differences between these two protocols and be shown the products and tools used to implement solutions. 

USB Solutions   (Level: Introductory) 
Serial Communications protocols like RS-232 are fast becoming obsolete for faster and more efficient protocols like USB. Embedded USB connectivity has its own challenges. This session helps embedded designers understand the challenges of using USB in their applications Attendees will learn about Microchip’s USB solutions for end point devices as well as Embedded Host applications. A demo will show the ease and simplicity of using Microchip’s USB solutions.
