In the fast moving world of electrical design, EM simulation is now a must rather than a nice-to-have. Electrical engineers are increasingly expected to do more with less, and in less time. Every bit of time-saving knowledge is therefore money well spent. CST's Webinar Series 2014 includes 12 free webinars which provide an insight into EM simulation and techniques to shorten the design cycle and reduce the number of costly prototypes required.

ADLINK Technology is preparing to show a raft of products at the SPS IPC Drives show in Nuremberg (Nov 25-27). Centre stage will be the high-speed pharmaceutical inspection applications empowered by ADLINK’s new generation x86 smart camera, the NEON-1040, featuring quad core Intel Atom processor E3845 1.9 GHz, 2048 x 2048 pixels @ 60 fps 1in monochrome CMOS global shutter image sensor, and PWM lighting control.

Maxwell Technologies and Corning have jointly announced a development agreement. Aiming to advance the state of capacitive energy storage technology, the agreement will address the challenges frequently cited by ultracapacitor customers, including energy density, lifetime, operating environment, form factor and cost.

  Following a successful two-day event held in Romania earlier this month, Etek Europe has revealed that it will be hosting a two-day Technology Event from 5th to 6th November 2014 at its Technology Centre in Prestwick, Scotland.

At the 2015 International CES, 6th to 9th January in Las Vegas, there will be a full lineup of lifestyle-focused conference programming and exhibits in partnership with Living in Digital Times. As well as several conference sessions focused on lifestyle technology, Living in Digital Times will sponsor seven lifestyle-focused marketplaces and the 'Last Gadget Standing' and 'Mobile Apps Showdown' events.

 At electronica 2014, from 11th to 14th November in Munich, Würth Elektronik will present its portfolio of standard and fully customisable electronic and electromechanical components. Products on show include X2 class foil capacitors, which operate alongside the Würth Elektronik’s filters, MLCC capacitors in 0402-1812 class sizes, snap-in aluminium electrolyte capacitors and variants in SMD, THT configurations.

  Considering the requirements of industrial and embedded applications, Apacer will exhibit its series of SSDs, including several recent additions, in A6.175 at electronica 2014.

MAZeT will focus on demonstrating applications related to intelligent light control and customised medical electronics at electronica in Munich (Nov 11-14). Achieving homogenous light output values using LEDs and electronics of different manufacturers can be a challenging task, especially for dynamic control options. Traditionally, purchasing very narrow and limited LED binnings have been a costly solution to this problem.

Mouser Electronics is fielding a strong lineup of latest products and its of services for design engineers at electronica in Munich (Nov 11-14).This year, Mouser’s stand has four separately themed Innovation Areas. The first is dedicated to the “Supplier of the Day” - experts from Texas Instruments, Analog Devices, Freescale and Intel will be on hand to highlight and discuss their products in detail with visitors.

Omron Electronic Components Europe is to premiere its embedded face and gesture recognition module to the public at electronica. New relays and switches for smart meters, electric vehicles, renewable energy systems and general industrial applications will also be featured on Omron’s stand.
