STMicroelectronics has introduced the industry’s first 800V surface-mount Silicon Controlled Rectifiers (SCR, or thyristor) specified for operation at temperatures up to 150°C without derating, giving freedom to miniaturize power modules for applications that demand high reliability in harsh conditions.
Jia Di, computer engineering professor from the University of Arkansas, was awarded a $349,198 by the National Science Foundation in order to improve his design of microcontrollers that can work in harsh environmental conditions, such as space.
Most antennas have to rotate, tracing circles, in the sky. The radar arrays fixed on top of air-traffic control towers sweep signals from all directions by rotating.
OMRON Corporation based in Kyoto City, western Japan, will introduce on June 1, 2016, "Color Mark Photoelectric Sensor E3S-DC Series (E3S-DC)" and "Color Fiber Amplifier Unit E3NX-CA Series (E3NX-CA)" targeting food and beverage makers faced with an increasing difficulty to detect color marks printed on diversified product packages.
Research into highly sensitive magnetic field sensors has been the focus of nano research at Kiel University for a number of years. On Wednesday, 25 May, the German Research Foundation (DFG) approved the following collaborative research centre (CRC) 1261 "Magnetoelectric Sensors: From Composite Materials to Biomagnetic Diagnostics" representing another milestone in this development.
MEMSIC Inc., a leading sensing solutions provider, today announced the availability of a new whitepaper for heavy equipment design engineers and developers who need to pick the right kind of acceleration sensors.
Ideally, homeowners want to be warned if a burglar sneaks onto their property, and farmers want to know if horses or sheep are no longer in the paddock or field they were left grazing in. Experimental physicists at Saarland University have developed a flexible security solution that can be used in gardens, driveways, business premises, or on grazing land and in woodland.
Littelfuse, Inc., the global leader in circuit protection, has introduced the 59040 Series press-fit reed sensor, the first Firecracker reed sensor from Littelfuse with crush ribs on the capsule that requires no attachment accessories for installation.
The new compact, high performance eddy current sensor from Micro-Epsilon boasts features that surpass those of its competitors. Designed for fast, high precision displacement, distance and position measurements, the eddyNCDT 3005 system comes with active temperature compensation, is pressure-resistant up to 10 bar and can withstand operating temperatures of up to 180°C due to the compact electronic housing being integrated into the cable one metre from the sensor head. The system is factory-calibrated, making it ideal for machine integration, as well as for single or volume OEM requirements.
A manufacturer of diesel generating sets is using non-contact, eddy current displacement sensors from Micro-Epsilon to measure the thermal expansion of its engine bed frames.
