Battery powered CO2 sensor can take 20 readings per second
LED-based NDIR detector specialists, Gas Sensing Solutions (GSS), has launched its newCO2sensor, SprintIR6S. GSS' SmartIR technology has enabled it to create a sensor that can take up to 20 readings per second, which it claims to be a world record for NDIR CO2detectors, and has a six times faster response rate than the current SprintIR.
Mid power LEDs provide wide beam angles
The DURIS E2385 LEDs from OSRAM Opto Semiconductors are in stock at Mouser Electronics. Aimed at providing uniform, homogeneous light distribution, the DURIS E 2835 family are mid-power light-emitting diodes that combine good efficacy and a wide beam angle in an industry-standard 2835 (2.8 mm × 3.5 mm) footprint.
Micropower LED driver contains integrated Hall-effect switch
A new micropower LED driver IC has been released by Allegro MicroSystems Europe that features an integrated Hall-effect switch. The APS13568 enables compact, elegant, reliable, and fault-tolerant LED lighting with minimal electrical engineering and low component-count and cost. A single silicon chip integrates: a micropower regulator, a Hall plate, a small-signal amplifier, chopper stabilisation, a Schmitt trigger, open drain Hall-effect switch, ...
Colour sensor provides platform for handheld colour analysers
Supplier of high performance sensor solutions, ams, has introduced an integrated colour point sensor IC, which marks a breakthrough in the product category, providing improved accuracy while cutting bill-of-materials and production costs for manufacturers of handheld colour analysis instruments.The new AS7261 JENCOLOR XYZ sensor is a complete platform for colour sensing, which eases design-in and simplifies production processes for manufacturers ...
Linear LED drivers increase efficiency in LED strips
The constant current regulators introduced by Diodes Incorporated, BCR401U, BCR402U and BCR405U, are appealing to lighting designers as they enable simple driving of low-current LED strips and panels in the commercial and industrial lighting sectors.Targeted at 12 and 24V linear LED strips, these regulators increase light output efficiency as they only require a 1.4V supply, allowing more LEDs in the string.
Full speed ahead!
The speed at which the Taiwanese electronics industry can move from design to production could be key as it strives to take an increasing share of the automotive electronics market. Though the country has been a major player in the automotive parts industry for many years, it has only been in the past three or four years that it has woken up to the fact that its long standing skills in electronics could open up the growing vehicle electronics mar...
Measuring technology range extended on flow meter
The METPOINT FLM flow meter from BEKO Technologies measures the compressed air volume flow, which is the basis for accurate consumption analyses for cost reduction and effective energy management. METPOINT FLM sensors reliably detect leakage, overloads and malfunctions. Based on the analysis of the sensor data, the components of the compressed air system can be adjusted for optimum efficiency.

The new range includes TrueForce LED Urban, an LED lamp alternative for outdoor luminaires in public spaces and TrueForce LED Industrial and Retail, the first true plug-and- play LED lamp alternative for industrial, large-scale retail applications to replace traditional HID lamps.Philips TrueForce LED range offers a simple replacement lamp, which enhances ...
Cover lenses provide extra protection for TFT displays
GTK has recommended the use of thick cover lenses to add extra protection to capacitive touch TFT displays that are being used in harsh environments. These cover lenses can be supplied in thicknesses ranging between 1.1mm through to 8mm and can be added to TFT screen sizes ranging from 2.4” to 15”. In cases where the cover lens glass exceeds 4mm thickness, an industrial capacitive IC controller is required.
Versatile rework system
PDR has launched an enhanced rework station. The IR-E3G Gold is said to be ideal for a wide range of SMD/BGA/microBGA/CSP/LED applications on small-large sized PCBs.The IR-E3G is said to add superior thermal control and twin cameras for precision alignment and process observation.
