One Chip, 24 Motors: US Firm Cuts Defense System Complexity With New Tech

One chip could soon be all military engineers need to handle up to 24 motors at once, simplifying defense systems that used to rely on complex wiring.

This capability comes from Microchip Technology’s LX4580 integrated circuit (IC), which collects synchronized data from multiple sensors while constantly looking out for anomalies.

Compact enough to fit inside aircraft, drones, and guided weapon systems, the tech ensures that every moving part operates efficiently in high-stakes mission environments.
