WASP adds acrylic panels to its touch screens
Setting a new trend in the manufacture of resistive touch screens, WASP is now offering its products with a choice of tough back panel materials. Normally, resistive touch screens are only mounted to a glass back panel, which, due to its fragility, is not always the ideal material in certain applications. However, following new developments, WASP can now offer the screens mounted on to acrylic and polyester.

TTI, Inc can now deliver the world’s highest value capacitance MLCCs at 500V dc and higher. Manufactured by Syfer, devices in the range from 500V to 1.5kV are of particular interest to power supply and dc/dc converter designers in the military, aerospace and telecoms markets.
Ultra thin 0402 surface mount ceramic capacitors from AVX
AVX has just released a new series of ultra thin ceramic capacitors targeted at applications where low profile is vital, such as smart cards, high density SIM cards, and memory modules. The new UT parts have the same footprint as 0402 devices but are only as thick as conventional 0201 products. However, they retain the same voltage and capacitance ratings of the standard thicker 0402 capacitors.
