The T24-SA is a high performance strain gauge to radio telemetry converter module, offering precision measurement with high performance two-way telemetry. Usable around the globe on licence-free 2.4 GHz frequency, the T24 range avoids local radio interference to ensure data integrity and security. For use in any measuring applications, from torque to weight, vibration to flow, the T24 offers users a complete solution to your measurement requireme...

Aeroflex has introduced the 4520 stand-alone Flying Probe System, a quick, easy and flexible solution to meet a variety of Printed Circuit Board (PCB) testing needs. Designed to perform high-speed, high-accuracy fixtureless test in a stand-alone platform, the Aeroflex 4520 offers users all the benefits of the popular 4550 in-line Flying Probe System, at a lower entry cost.

National Instruments (NI) has announced the release of three new Compact FieldPoint controllers that deliver increased performance, higher processor speed and significantly improved Ethernet throughput. The NI cFP-2220, cFP-2210 and cFP-2200 controllers include a 400 MHz PowerPC processor and Wind River VxWorks real-time operating system (RTOS) for greater processing power and faster data analysis.

National Instruments has announced NI TestStand 4.1, the latest version of the company’s test management software, which now helps engineers develop faster test systems with multicore processor support. As manufacturers shift to multicore processors to provide performance gains, NI TestStand 4.1 running on these new processors can deliver more powerful systems with increased test throughput. With the new NI Switch Executive 3.0, developers can ...

National Instruments has announced Measurement Studio 8.5 to add test and measurement functionality to the latest Microsoft development environment with a complete set of .NET class libraries, tools and NI data acquisition driver support for Microsoft Visual Studio 2008. Measurement Studio 8.5 includes ASP.NET AJAX-compatible user interface controls and advanced network variable communication functions for creating highly responsive remote monito...

Data Translation has announced the Ethernet (LXI) version of their precision temperature measurement instrument TEMPpoint. This network-ready version of the popular instrument provides a standard Ethernet connection to support remote monitoring and control of thermocouples, RTD's and voltages; in the field, in the laboratory and on the factory floor.

The FRANK Source-Measure-Multiplex-Unit (SMMU) is said to bring to the laboratory and test-bench what a Scanner-Printer-FAX-Copier-Multifunction-Unit brought to the office. The SMMU-05 combines Voltage Source / Current Sink with Digital Multimeter (Voltage / Current / Resistance / Capacitance / Diode-Test) and Multiplexer for up to 128 Test-Points and many additional functions.

The new Yokogawa NX4000 is a transport analyser for the testing of 40 Gbit/s SONET/SDH and 43/44 Gbit/s OTN optical communication systems. With optical line rates now being deployed at 40 Gbit/s and faster, many manufacturers are starting to ramp up their own 40G+ designs for Next Generation Networks (NGNs), and growth in this segment of optical communications is quickly rising.

Allegro MicroSystems Europe has introduced the A1360/1/2 family of programmable linear Hall-effect sensor ICs feature extremely low noise levels and very high bandwidth, making them ideally suited to high-frequency automotive or industrial current sensing applications.

The new PFM3000 from TTi (Thurlby Thandar Instruments) is a UK built hand-held frequency counter which can measure signals from below 3 Hz to above 3 GHz. Its low cost of £115 puts it into a similar price category as hand-held multimeters.
