National Instruments has extended the NI LabVIEW graphical programming environment to now target the Wind River VxWorks real-time operating system (RTOS), which has been deployed in more than 350 million devices worldwide including the latest National Instruments CompactRIO controllers. The NI cRIO-9012 and cRIO-9014 controllers combine the productivity of LabVIEW Real-Time and the reliability of the VxWorks device software, making it easy for e...

Microchip announces eight new members of its PIC24F 16-bit microcontroller family, with up to 64 Kbytes of Flash program memory and up to 8 Kbytes of RAM, in smaller, lower cost, 28- and 44-pin packages including a tiny 6x6 mm 28-pin QFN package option. The 28 and 44-pin PIC24FJ64GA004 family contains a similar peripheral set to the 100-pin PIC24FJ128GA family. “Peripheral Pin Select” pin-mapping allows designers to use the available pins ex...

HARTING has added a new coaxial connector to its Quintax range of shielded data connectors for industrial applications. The new Han E-Coax is a Quintax connector with one Han-E crimp contact in the coaxial position.

Expanding its MacroDens portfolio of DC/DC modules, Ericsson Power Modules has released three PKR modules aimed primarily at powering telecom and datacom transmission systems requiring floating dual outputs, such as line cards and optical transmitters. Similarly, the PKR will also power a wide range of applications in instrumentation and process control that use analogue logic and communication chipsets. With their floating design, the devices’...

XP Power continues to increase the flexibility of its range of AC/DC power supplies with the launch of the MFA350. Believed to be the world’s smallest 350 W power supply, the base platform achieves 11.2 Watts per cubic inch power density. The product is designed specifically for telecom and datacom applications, such as storage area networks, data networking and post-production broadcast equipment. Its design facilitates a multitude of packag...

Link Microtek, manufacturer of waveguide and coaxial microwave products, has introduced a new series of coaxial mismatch terminations, which provide a quick and easy method of calibrating equipment or checking the performance of a microwave system.

Strategic Test Corp has released six new Transient Recorder cards in the UF2-4700 series. Using multiple 16-bit ADC’s for true simultaneous sampling, the cards are available with a choice of maximum sampling rates of 100 kS/s, 250 kS/s and 500 kS/s. The cards are available in 8- or 16-channel configurations enabling the user to select the most cost-effective solution with prices from only $160 per channel. Drivers for Microsoft Windows XP and...
