Cables & modules facilitate more effective bridging to USB
FTDI Chip has introduced the highly advanced LC231X USB-to-serial UART bridging module, which is based on the company’s FT231X interface IC. This compact (15.24x28.19mm), cost-effective unit presents engineers with jumper-selectable power to external I/O (either 3.3V or 5V, as required) and UART interface with full modem handshaking control at up to 3MBaud data rate.
Distributor develops IoT development platform
A new FPGA IoT Maker Board that has been designed for end-to-end application development and optimised for cost has been developed by Arrow Electronics. The Arrow MAX1000 board can be installed directly into a custom application or integrated on to a completely separate board.

Integrated solutions to cut time to market for customers' lighting designs
TE Connectivity is unveiling innovations at LIGHTFAIR International (LFI) 2017 that increase efficiency in its customers’ development projects. Taking place in Philadelphia from 9th to 11th May, LFI is the world's largest annual architectural and commercial lighting trade show and conference.
Silicone system has enhanced low temperature serviceability
Ideal for potting and encapsulation applications, Master Bond's MasterSil 157 is a two component silicone system that features low viscosity and low exotherm. According to the company, it has superior electrical insulation properties and can cure in sections beyond 1 inch thick.
IEC outlets now available with integrated light pipes
Continual advancements in Information and Communications Technology (ICT) strive to keep pace with the continually expanding human need for information. New data centres continually appear in the most unconventional of places to support this growing demand. These data centres are under constant pressure to improve upon efficiency and reliability under growing regulatory requirements to reduce energy use and cost. Meanwhile, the demand for reliabl...
Cables & modules facilitate more effective bridging to USB
FTDI Chip has added to the breadth of supporting products within its X-Chip portfolio. Firstly, there is the introduction of the highly advanced LC231X USB-to-serial UART bridging module, which is based on the company’s FT231X interface IC.

TVS diode arrays provide economical protection for HD displays
A series of TVS Diode Arrays (SPA Diodes) has been introduced by Littelfuse. These have been designed to protect each I/O pin of electronic equipment subject to destructive electrostatic discharges (ESD) or Electrical Fast Transients (EFT). The new SP1064 Series TVS Diode Arrays are Zener diodes fabricated using a proprietary silicon avalanche technology. These robust diodes can safely absorb repetitive ESD strikes above the maximum level specifi...
Public-key crypto protects IoT devices and data paths
Designing in crypto-strong authentication to protect IoT device hardware, plus providing authenticity and integrity of small data transactions between the device and the cloud, is now easier and quicker with the MAXREFDES155# DeepCover embedded security reference design from Maxim Integrated Products.
The robot revolution is on the rise
In many production applications, automation is employed to carry out tasks such as gripping, moving and positioning objects, and, in some cases, controlling and regulating whole processes. These are all tasks that are also routinely carried out in nature. Ten years ago, German automation company Festo set up the Bionic Learning Network to study and learn from these natural phenomena.
