Atmel Corporation (NASDAQ:ATML)

Atmel Corporation (ATML), declared the corporation is sampling the industry’s lowest power ARM® Cortex®-M based solution with power consumption down to 35µA/MHz in active mode and 200nA in sleep mode. The ultra-low power SAM L family broadens the Atmel | SMART 32-bit ARM-based MCU portfolio and extends battery life from years to decades, reducing the number of times batteries need to be changed in devices such as fire alarms, healthcare, medical, wearable, and devices placed in rural, agriculture, offshore and other remote areas. The SAM L21 combines ultra-low power with Flash and SRAM that are large enough to run both the application and wireless stacks—three features that are cornerstones of most IoT applications. Sampling now, the SAM L21 comes complete with a development platform counting an Xplained PRO kit, code libraries and Atmel Studio support.

Atmel’s ultra-low power SAM L21 family is ideal for a number of applications counting the Internet of Things (IoT), consumer, industrial, medical and other battery-powered devices. The low-power innovations in this Atmel | SMART family is achieved through several technological breakthroughs counting:

  • Best-in-class active mode current consumption.
  • SRAM back biasing to reduce leakage in sleep modes.
  • Sleep modes that do not only gate away the clock signal to stop switching consumption, but also remove power from sub domains to fully eliminate leakage.
  • SAM L21 peripherals that support Sleepwalking—a technology that enables peripherals to request a clock when needed to wake-up from sleep modes and perform tasks without having to power up the CPU Flash and other support systems.
  • Atmel’s proprietary Event System that allows peripherals to work together to solve complex tasks using minimal gates and also the lowest possible power.
  • Ultra-low power capacitive touch sensing peripheral that can run in all operating modes and supports wake-up on touch.

Atmel Corporation designs, develops, manufactures, and sells semiconductor integrated circuit products primarily in the United States, Asia, Europe, South Africa, and Central and South America. It operates in four segments: Microcontroller, Nonvolatile Memory, Automotive, and Multi-Market and Other.

United States Steel Corp. (NYSE:X)

United States Steel Corp. (X), declared it will adjust operations and temporarily idle a portion of its Minnesota Ore Operations – Minntac plant in Mt. Iron, Minn., effective June 1.

The corporation will continue to operate Minntac at reduced capacity in order to meet customer demand.

The corporation routinely adjusts production at its operating facilities to reflect market fluctuations. These ongoing operational adjustments are a result of challenging market conditions that reflect the cyclical nature of the industry. Global influences in the market, counting a high level of imports, unfairly traded products and reduced steel prices, continue to have an influence. As part of the temporary idling, all employees at Minntac have been advised of the forthcoming temporary idling and are being issued notices under the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (WARN) Act. The number of employees influenceed will be based upon operational and, or maintenance needs.

United States Steel Corporation produces and sells flat-rolled and tubular steel products in North America and Europe. It operates through three segments: Flat-Rolled Products (Flat-Rolled), U. S. Steel Europe (USSE), and Tubular Products (Tubular).

Seabridge Gold, Inc. (NYSE:SA)

Formerly on March 25, Seabridge Gold, Inc. (SA), declared the completion of its first resource estimate for the Iron Cap Lower Zone at its 100% owned KSM Project in northwestern British Columbia . The Iron Cap Lower Zone is, after Deep Kerr, the second core zone identified at KSM. The grade of the Iron Cap Lower Zone’s estimated 164 million tonne inferred resource averages 0.59 g/T gold and 0.27% copper (3.1 million ounces of gold and 961 million pounds of copper), a significantly higher grade than the Iron Cap resource which lies above the Lower Zone.

Core zones are the deeper focused parts of porphyry deposits characterized by higher fluid flux and abundant veining which generally results in higher grades than the shallower margins of the porphyry deposits usually associated with them. Since 2012, Seabridge has been successfully exploring for core zones beneath the known porphyry deposits at KSM with the objective of enhancing grades and improving project economics.

Seabridge Gold Inc., a development stage corporation, together with its auxiliaries, is engaged in the attainment and exploration of gold properties located in North America. It also explores for copper, silver, and molybdenum ores.
