Delivering design-relevant information directly to Engineers

MELVILLE, N.Y.–(EMWPresswire)–Nu Horizons Electronics Corp. (NASDAQ: NUHC), a leading global

distributor of advanced technology semiconductor, display, illumination,

power and system solutions; announces a web-based seminar featuring the

16-bit H8S microcontroller from Renesas. This seminar will highlight the

H8S/2378 microcontroller’s ability to

interface directly to a TFT-LCD via Renesas’

Direct-Drive technology; eliminating the need for an external LCD

controller. The H8S/2378 is one of a series of devices supported by a

defined software application-program interface (API) increasing the

portability of third party graphic routines and applications programs.

During this 45 minute seminar, attendees will receive:

• a detailed overview of the Direct Drive methodology,

• hints and tips on developing TFT-LCD based applications,

• training on the full suite of development tools, and

• an overview of the software available to assist engineers in quickly

  bringing products from concept to production.

“With the H8S microcontroller, Renesas has

created a technology to enable new markets with the desire to integrate

a graphical interface into their products with minimal engineering

resources,” said Rita Megling, senior vice

president of marketing for Nu Horizons. “It is

this type of differentiating capability that we like to highlight within

our XpressTrack customer education program.”

“We are excited to participate in this web

seminar and showcase the diversity of our H8S microcontroller,”

stated Bill Hood, senior director of sales for Renesas. “Nu

Horizons’ XpressTrack education program has

trained thousands of engineers, both in person and online. It is a great

opportunity for us to reach a large audience with a quick, effective and

easy format.”

This seminar will take place on Thursday, August 7. There are two

opportunities to join this online seminar: 11am EST and 3pm EST.
