HARTIING has introduced a range of patch cables which combine the company'sPush-Pull interconnection technology with overmoulding for enhanced reliability.

Arrow Electronics is offering a low-cost USB disk demonstration board that allows embedded systems designers to quickly and easily evaluate the latest high-performance µPSD3400 Turbo Plus series of 8-bit microcontroller from STMicroelectronics. Designed for direct connection to a PC USB interface, the DK3420 demonstration board effectively emulates a small USB flash disk based around a µPSD3400 Turbo Plus device.

The 9175 connector from AVX’s Elco Europe Division allows users to easily connect individual wires to a single row of contacts using IDC technology. Currently available as 2-and 3-way IDC connectors, the part is both low-profile (3.45mm) with a small PCB footprint (2 way: 5.0x2.5mm, 3 way: 7.5x2.5mm) and allows for quick, easy assembly thanks to a dedicated single-wire insertion hand tool.

Analog Devices has announced the availability of its second-generation chipset for developers of advanced multimedia mobile handsets based on the 3G TD-SCDMA Low Chip Rate (LCR) air interface. The new SoftFone-LCR+ chipset expands Analog Devices’ portfolio of TD-SCDMA technology solutions and builds upon the company’s legacy as a leader in TD-SCDMA technology development by adding support for a wide range of enhanced multimedia functions.

Now available from TTi (Thurlby Thandar Instruments) is the Tektronix AFG3000 Series of arbitrary/function generators, consisting of six models with the market-leading 240 MHz, dual-channel, 2 GS/s AFG3252 at the head of the series.

PULS, the DIN-rail power supplies specialist , has added new tools for system designers to its website. In addition to full specifications of all of its power supplies and accessories, a new PULScast feature offers movie clips explaining power supply technology and functionality. The other new website feature is downloadable CAD drawings of all PULS DIN-Rail power supplies.

Keithley Instruments has announced its Model KPCI-488LP Low Profile GPIB Controller Interface plug-in board. A complement to Keithley's precision measurement instruments, the Model KPCI-488LP is priced at only EURO 369, helping test engineers to further lower their cost of test and ownership. To reduce switching costs, the Model KPCI-488LP's driver library is fully command compatible with Keithley, Capital Equipment Corporation (CEC), and Nationa...

Texas Instruments has introduced a monolithic 12-bit, 500 MSPS analog-to-digital converter (ADC) providing unmatched size and performance. The new pipeline ADC offers 64.5 dBFS signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) up to 500 MHz input frequency at 500 MSPS, bringing a new class of performance to customers previously confined to 8- and 10-bits of resolution. In a space-saving 14 mm x 14 mm package, the new ADC meets the resolution and speed requirements of ...

Fairchild Semiconductor has introduced the FDZ191P, said to be the industry’s smallest footprint P-channel MOSFET offering the optimal thermal and electrical performance necessary for power conversion, charging and load management in an array of low-voltage (

Semtech has introduced the SX8722, a complete, high-resolution data acquisition device for micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) sensors used in portable industrial and consumer sensing applications. The SX8722 interfaces with most Wheatstone bridge chemical, pressure or magnetic sensors to condition and read data. The device features Semtech’s ZoomingADC, a 16-bit analog/digital converter (ADC) with a 10-bit preamplifier to allow the device ...
