DigiKey spotlights new products at embedded world 2026

DigiKey will feature the latest embedded system products from top suppliers at its booth, 4A-633, during embedded world 2026, 10-12th March, in Nuremberg, Germany. The company will also showcase technical capabilities and tools at its popular TechBench and give away exciting prizes at the show.

“DigiKey is excited to connect with engineers, designers, and makers at embedded world 2026,” said Mike Slater, Vice President, Global Business Development at DigiKey. “Our industry-leading breadth and depth of readily available embedded systems products, expanded local shipping capabilities, and export compliance services accelerate design activity and fuel innovation in Europe and beyond.”

This year, DigiKey’s booth will feature demos from supplier partners, including:

  • A thread network composed of sensors and actuators from NXP, Microchip, and STMicroelectronics, with Home Assistant as the interface, collects data such as air quality, ambient light and proximity and sends it to a central hub
  • Microchip’s LAN865x and LAN867x 10BASE-T1S Single-Pair Ethernet (SPE) network with 17 nodes featuring 19,200 LEDs showing video streaming from a standard camera streaming via an SBC at 60 frames per second
  • Optical heart rate sensing with NXP’s MCX N94 microcontroller, a high-performance, low-power microcontroller with intelligent peripherals and accelerators that provide multitasking capabilities and efficient performance
  • AI modelling to recognise hand gestures from a camera feed with STMicroelectronics’ STM32N6, the first MCU to introduce the Arm Helium vector processing technology, bringing DSP processing capability to a standard MCU
  • Live sensor readings with Arduino’s UNO Q 4GB and Arduino’s Plug and Make Kit
  • BeagleBoard’s PocketBeagle2, which features a small form factor and low power consumption, making it well-suited for embedded development for prototyping or deploying at scale
  • Hands-on Red Pitaya evaluation board experiments with inverting and non-inverting amplifiers, frequency response and gain-bandwidth
  • LabsLand’s Prism4, a modular ecosystem for building interactive, real-time, remote hardware systems faster and more efficiently
  • Microchip’s veryVerilog mini FPGA kit, an entry-level soldering-and-learning platform for microcontroller and digital design fundamentals developed in collaboration with DigiKey’s Academic Program
  • Arduino’s Opta PLC training kit, which provides an excellent way to learn PLC programming and the fundamentals of industrial control and automation

Several of the demos in DigiKey’s booth will also feature click boards, like MikroElektronika’s, to enable rapid prototyping ecosystems and accelerate innovation at scale.

Visitors to the company’s booth can experience electrical engineering in the wild by chatting with technical experts at the DigiKey TechBench and virtual workshop. Attendees can also receive a special giveaway package from our distribution vending machine and claim instant-win prizes at DigiKey’s popular slot machines. In addition, the DigiKey Café across from the company’s booth will serve free coffee throughout the conference.
