“ATCA and AMCs are growing in popularity in medical electronics, functioning to gather data in portable imaging and diagnostic equipment, and serving as a type of flash memory to remove and review data,” said David Webber, director of product management for C&K Components. “Because the environmental conditions of portable medical equipment call for higher temperature capabilities and increased tolerance to shock and vibration, this complete line of detect switches are capable of operation at a wider temperature range and are available in a variety of compact configurations to suit reliability, lifespan and space requirements.”
C&K’s detect switches feature expanded temperature ranges from -40°C to +85°C.
