GL Announces LTE Protocol Analyzer
LTE protocol standard is the so called 4G (4th Generation) mobile standard in the rapidly evolving mobile technologies. Its distinguishing feature is an all IP infrastructure and significantly greater air interface bandwidth to the mobile handset. It was developed as an enhancement to the existing 3G UMTS System (Universal Mobile Telecommunications System) to provide users enhanced mobile radio and internet access.
12-Bit Absolute Encoder is Compact
CUI Devices I has added a new absolute encoder to its high resolution, low-cost AMT modular encoder line. The AMT203 outputs 12 bits of absolute position information in a very small (1.35”x1.13”x 0.45”) modular package. Unique among its peers, the AMT203 generates absolute position information using CUI Devices' patented, capacitive code generation system coupled with a proprietary ASIC, creating a reliable, economical...
