Boards/Backplanes

MPD has invented another new CR2032 low profile coin cell battery holder. While other CR2032 holder solutions often rise 8 to 10 mm above the PCB, our new LP2032SM-JJ-GTR rises under 5 mm with an installed CR2032 battery. This directly saves more than 3 mm in height when compared to typical CR2032 battery holders available on the market.

Pixus Technologies announced new 3U OpenVPX backplanes in 5-slot and 6-slot sizes. The 5-slot OpenVPX backplane from Pixus features a mesh topology. The versatile backplane topology and slot size makes it an attractive choice for many development systems.

Kingston Technology Europe continues to celebrate its 10th HyperX anniversary by announcing all-new black printed circuit boards on two of its product lines. Kingston’s high-performance HyperX Beast and entry-level enthusiast ‘black’ lines will incorporate black PCB under the signature heatspreader designs.

Pixus Technologies now offers 40G AdvancedTCA backplanes in the 6-slot and 14-slot sizes. The 40G ATCA backplanes from Pixus Technologies are designed to PICMG 3.0 Rev 3.0 specifications. The 6 slot version features dual pluggable shelf manager/switch connections.

The PX1500-4 is a four channel waveform capture board that can acquire up to 1500 MSPS on each channel or up to 3000 MSPS for dual channel operation when ADC data is interleaved. The PX1500-4 can be set up to use either a transformer coupled front end or an amplifier connection.

OpenATE is proud to announce two self-contained IC tester modules, each containing Digital, Power, and PMU resources. The feature sets and specifications of the new PE16A and PEMU32 modules are competitive with and comparable to system features and capabilities found in current generation ATE systems.

Responding to users’ requests for a switching / control card which can be customised for specific applications, Geotest has introduced the GX6196, a 6U PXI switch and control board that can be used to create custom switching, signal conditioning, or custom control interfaces.

The cascadable demo board NQ6D for the evaluation of angle sensors and encoders comes with the advanced sine-to-digital converter iC-NQC. Here, the serial BiSS C interface permits clock-synchronized measurement reading from boards docked on to one another, useful for position sensing along several axes, for example.

Emerson Network Power today announced a new 3U OpenVPX processor board designed to provide high compute performance, flexibility, and high speed fabric connectivity for a range of industrial, communication and military/aerospace applications.

Hylec-APL has introduced a new comprehensive range of Steatite ceramic terminal blocks which are ideal for wire termination in demanding high temperature applications. Manufactured by Hylec-APL Company, DE Controls, the terminal blocks are a design that is available in both two and three pole options. The new ranges of Steatite ceramic terminal blocks have several characteristics which make it advantageous over existing porcelain ceramic products...
