Zilog Announces New ZMOTION Occupancy Sensor Reference Design
November 15 2016 - 5:30PM
Zilog®, a wholly-owned subsidiary of IXYS Corporation (NASDAQ:IXYS)
that specializes in application specific microcontroller (MCU)
solutions for the industrial, telecommunication, automotive, and
consumer markets, introduces its new ZMOTION Occupancy Sensor
reference design, expanding its portfolio of motion sensing and
control technology products.
Zilog’s ZMOTION Occupancy Sensor reference
design demonstrates the use of its ZMOTION MCU (part number
Z8FS040BHH20EG) and key IXYS components as a passive infrared (PIR)
sensor-based motion detector lighting system that can operate in
two modes – occupancy mode and vacancy mode. Both modes can use
either PWM or 1–10 V interfaces to control dimmable light ballasts.
These ballasts typically drive fluorescent/compact fluorescent
(CFL), high intensity discharge (HID), or high power LED
lighting.
A 9-position DIP switch enables configuration of
parameters such as sensitivity, delay time, dim level, pass through
mode, vacancy mode, and occupancy mode. Additional functionality
includes ambient light detection, AC power control, and ZMOTION’s
advanced Pass Through and Hyper Sense features. A status LED
indicator is provided for motion detection and external wiring
fault detection. This reference design supports ZMOTION L200
development kit lenses.
“Zilog offers an extensive range of reference
designs with the flexibility and features to help accelerate
product development and shorten time to market. Several of these
designs incorporate World of IXYS components that demonstrate the
integration of our solutions to create robust products. Given the
increased use of motion detection technology, especially in new IoT
products, Zilog’s ZMOTION solutions are well positioned to offer
developers greater control in their designs. We often see unique
ideas emerging in applications where having this type of motion
detection can enhance the capabilities and flexibility of our
customer’s designs,” commented Steve Darrough, Zilog’s VP of
Marketing.

Design is available for purchase directly from our online Zilog
Store and through our distribution channels. For more information,
