Movea Accelerates Expansion of MotionIC Platform
Movea, the pioneer in motion-sensing and motion-control technologies, is accelerating development of its MotionIC platform as a result of heightened industry demand since the launch of the platform in fall 2010. As part of this strategy, Movea has sold the assets of its Gyration business unit to SMK-Link. Under the terms of the agreement, SMK-Link becomes a customer of Movea and will license Movea’s SmartMotion™, MotionIC and MotionTools™ t...
High performance 600W cPCI from Gresham Power offers vendor, inventory and cost reduction
Gresham Power Electronics, the Salisbury based MIL and Commercial power conversion specialist, claim their 6U 600W cPCI power supply can cost effectively replace all other 6U products of equivalent and lower output power, thereby rationalising their customer’s inventory requirements and reducing costs.
New accelerometers rumble low frequency vibrations
The CTA306 series of rugged triaxial accelerometers, available from Aptifirst, are especially designed to mechanically filter out vibrations at frequencies over 20Hz, so that low frequency vibrations may be measured accurately in vibrationally noisy environments. Ranges available are ±2g to ±30g, the different axes can be fitted with different ranges if required, and they have an amazing over-range capacity of 20,000g. They allow true inertial...
2kVA, Rugged, Portable DC/AC Inverter with Sine Wave Output for Field Applications
Absopulse Electronics’ CSI 2KT-2A is a rugged, portable DC/AC inverter system that uses field proven microprocessor controlled high frequency PWM technology to generate 2KVA output power with pure sine wave output voltage. High frequency conversion enables compact construction, low weight and high efficiency. The system is conformal coated and heavily ruggedized for immunity to high levels of shock, vibration, humidity, moisture and airborne c...
Maxim introduces a power-management IC solution for Samsung’s next-generation application processor
At the 2011 Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Maxim announced a power-management IC (PMIC) solution for Samsung’s Exynos 4210 application processor developed for handheld systems. Maxim’s PMIC solution integrates the various firmware and circuitry required for managing power delivery and battery charging with system logic so that consumers can enjoy advanced multimedia functionality.
AVX’s UQCL series capacitors provide high current, high Q and low ESR
AVX has developed a multilayer capacitor (MLC) chip series with new dielectric and internal electrode materials in a 0402 size. These materials allow for a much lower equivalent series resistance than in previous versions of RF capacitors. Designated the UQCL Series, the chips are ideal for RF/microwave applications ranging from 10MHz to 4.2GHz.
ACAL Technology introduce new single-chip 32.768kHz clock oscillator
ACAL Technology introduced Advanced Crystal Technology’s (ACT) new 32.768kHz ACT9325WC single-chip clock oscillator which increases reliability as well as reducing component count.
Space-saving socket option for energy friendly microcontrollers
Energy Micro, the energy friendly microcontroller company, has announced it is making its EFM32 Gecko and Tiny Gecko product lines available in the space-saving QFP48 package. The smaller 48-pin ARM® Cortex(TM)-M3 based microcontroller options will enable manufacturers to take device footprint down to 7mm x 7mm at a pin pitch of 0.5mm.
Underwater vibration measurements - even at high temperatures
Until now, the most appropriate solution for vibration measurements underwater or in situations of temporary submersion, has been to use the DeltaTron Accelerometer, Type 5958-A. This is an excellent solution for use at temperatures up to 100°C
