An Alternative to Mercury Wetted Reed Relays
Read more
Pickering’s Series 114 reed relays switch up to 40 Watts, 1 Amp and will carrying 2 Amps. Due to this high rating these small relays can, in some cases, be used as a substitute to mercury wetted reed relays. Available in Form A or Form B configurations. 5, 12 and 24 Volt coils with optional diode. Free samples available on request.

Thermoelectric Cooling for CMOS Sensors. For nearly 50 years CCD (charge-coupled device) sensors and CMOS (complementary metal-oxide semiconductor) sensors have competed on cost and performance in a wide range of digital imaging applications. Peltier coolers (thermoelectric coolers) have cooled both technologies when the requirement demanded high-resolution images. Design engineers opted to use CCD’s for astrophotography, super-resolution microscopy, x-ray crystallography, and spectrophotometric assays. On the other hand, CMOS sensors made inexpensive digital photography a reality.

Podcast: Season 2 - Episode #10 - How to build confidence in VNA test and measurement
Read more
Ever-higher operating frequencies for components and devices have led to something of a crisis of confidence in their test and measurement veracity. Fortunately, new solutions giving a trustworthy calibration along with verification standards are now available to provide a higher level of assurance for designers, manufacturers and their customers. In this latest podcast (accessible at the bottom of this page), Jamie Lunn, Product Manager for a family of network analysers at Rohde & Schwarz, explains. He has also written a more in-depth article around the topic which can be read below.
