| Watch this short video to learn what hot and cold switching is when using reed relays and the effects different switching methods can have on relay life expectancy. The video, created by Pickering Electronics, also talks about capacitive inrush, another common reason for early relay failure that is easily avoidable. Watch the video now to learn more. |

| With a very high efficiency of up to 98% and a footprint of just 95x45mm, the fanless DC/DC converter BICKER DC160WS is impressive in compact IPC systems for mobile and industrial applications. The high quality of the converter ensures many years of 24/7 continuous operation in the temperature range -20…+70°C. The DC output voltage is selectable via jumper to 12V, 19V or 24VDC. For the optimal thermal connection of the power components on the PCB bottom side, a suitable thermal pad for contact cooling is already included in the scope of delivery. |

The next 20 years will see homes changing more than over the hundred preceding them. Homes will expand in the activities they enable and support. Most crucially, with real time integration into the wider environment and economy, homes will increasingly respond to the needs of individuals, societies, economies, and the planet.
This paper examines the potential for the Matter specification to bring in-home interoperability to smart home systems and its ability to drive broadscale industry and consumer engagement.

| The BUF802 device is an open-loop, unity gain buffer with a JFET-input stage that offers low-noise, high-impedance buffering for data acquisition system (DAQ) front-ends. The BUF802 supports DC to 3.1 GHz of bandwidth while offering excellent distortion and noise performance across the frequency range. |

| The advent of 4D imaging radar technology for automotive sensing and autonomous driving applications has reshaped the timetables and economics of our evolution from L0 to fully autonomous L5 vehicles. Radar’s newly tapped ability to enable precise environmental mapping dramatically enhances vehicles’ overall sensing and awareness capabilities, and in so doing, redefines industry expectations for radar’s role going forward relative to camera sensors and particularly lidar sensors.
Discover why super-fine resolution radar sensors are poised to become the most fundamental sensors for L2+ applications and a compelling, cost-effective alternative to Lidar. |

| Everyone is talking about the metaverse and what it may bring. A report by Dell Technologies has suggested that 85% of the jobs that will exist in 2030 haven’t been invented yet. Statistics such as this may worry recent graduates that fret their newly-acquired degrees are void of use as they can’t learn skills which are not yet even in existence. |

| The CES (Consumer Electronics Show) 2022, which took place in Las Vegas from the 3rd to the 7th of January 2022, saw a multitude of events and exhibitions, many of which were aired virtually due to COVID restrictions. One of these was ZF, whose online presentation is recapped here as it provides a particular focus on what ZF refers to as ‘The future of Autonomous Mobility’ – and how the company plans to accomplish it. |
