The NICE Series of Fanless Embedded Systems from Nexcom has been expanded with introduction of the NICE 3100-P2, a product that is capable of supporting two PCI expansion cards in one compact chassis. Based on Intel’s Pentium M/Celeron M processor with 400MHz, the NICE 3100-P2 is designed for space-critical applications requiring fanless operation, extreme reliability and versatile I/O configuration.

The main target applications for the Schrack 410 83 power relays from Tyco Electronics are safe power supply disconnection - for example in photovoltaic inverters, washing machines and tumble dryers. The devices feature one pole (16A, 1 NO bridging contact) and have a contact gap of 3mm and low coil power of only 360mW. Quick connect terminals for load side ensure fast and easy mating.

OKW has launched the ‘SENSO-CASE’ series of hand-grip style enclosures. These ergonomic hand-held cases have been designed for single handed operation of the controls on the top section of the unit. Typical applications will include measuring and control units, machine and robot controllers, stock and sales logging equipment, medical and laboratory technology and opto-electronics.

Analog Devices has extended its family of differential amplifiers by introducing two new devices with distortion levels said to be 10 dB lower than competing driver ICs. The ADA4937-1 and ADA4938-1 differential drivers are optimized for driving the highest performance ADCs from dc to 100 MHz.
