STWIN.box sensor tile wireless industrial node development kit

The STWIN.box (STEVAL-STWINBX1) is a development kit and reference design that simplifies prototyping and testing of advanced industrial sensing applications in IoT contexts such as condition monitoring and predictive maintenance.

It features a higher mechanical accuracy in the measurement of vibrations, an improved robustness, an updated BoM to reflect the latest and best-in-class MCU and industrial sensors, and an easy-to-use interface for external add-ons.

The many on-board industrial-grade sensors and the ultra-low power MCU enable applications that feature: ultra-low power, 9 DoF motion sensing, wide-bandwidth vibration analysis, audio and ultrasound acoustic inspection, very precise local temperature, and environmental monitoring.

A rich set of software packages is available in source code. Optimized firmware libraries and a complete companion cloud application help to speed up the design cycle to develop end-to-end solutions.

The kit supports a broad range of connectivity options, including the built-in RS485 transceiver, BLE, Wi-Fi, and NFC. The STWIN.box also includes a 34-pin expansion connector for small form factor daughter boards associated with the STM32 family, such as the STEVAL-C34KAT1 vibrometer and temperature sensors expansion board.

The STWIN.box is suitable for field trials, demonstrations, and PoC for industrial IoT applications that use ST software and third-party software.

ST offers a portfolio of automotive sensors qualified according to AEC-Q100 standards, including single, dual and 3-axis accelerometers (low and high g full scale), 3-axis gyroscopes and 6-axis inertial modules (IMU), all with digital output.

Automotive MEMS accelerometers

ST's low-g accelerometers as AIS2IH and AIS25BA, have advanced power-saving features and an extended temperature range that make them the ideal choice for non-critical automotive applications, such as telematics, navigation, infotainment and security.

Our high-g accelerometers feature an extended temperature range and are suitable for airbag applications in vehicle safety restraint systems.

Automotive 6-axis inertial module (IMU)

The ASM330LHH, ASM330LHHX and ASM330LHB are system-in-package featuring a 3D digital accelerometer and a 3D digital gyroscope with an extended temperature range up to +105 °C. It is designed to address automotive non-safety and sensor-assisted applications like dead reckoning and sensor fusion. ST's MEMS automotive sensors are developed on the same technology platform used for high-volume MEMS at the core of many industrial and consumer applications.

Smart factory is centered around industrial sensors added to equipment with both wired and wireless connectivity technologies, as well as more efficient power conversion technologies. Adding new power control systems can dramatically reduce the energy consumption of manufacturing systems, reducing costs and carbon emissions.

Embedding Digital Signal Processing (DSP) in ISPU to become part of the real-time systems is providing more visibility of the performance of the manufacturing systems. This is leading to the development of the smart factory that can be monitored in real-time and quickly reconfigured to meet the changing production requirements.
