Liquid Level Switches Offer Cost-Effective Point Level Detection
Sensortechnics’ introduces the new OLP series of miniature optical liquid level switches. These very cost-effective point level sensors measure the presence or absence of liquid in a wide range of OEM applications.
TI linear regulator said to cut MSP430 standby power consumption in half
Texas Instruments has introduced 150-mA, low-dropout linear regulators (LDOs) with dual-level voltage output for MSP430 microcontroller-based, battery-powered devices. Consuming the lowest quiescent current in the industry at 500-nanoAmps, the LDO’s voltage select (VSET) pin gives designers the ability to switch between two voltage levels to customize and cut power consumption in half during operation.
2.2in QVGA displays optimise ‘user machine relationship’ and ease migration from mono to colour
The latest 2.2in TFT displays from Anders Electronics will help designers to optimise the user machine relationship (UMR) while providing a rapid and cost-effective route to migrate existing products from mono to colour. Designed to address the widest possible range of application requirements, the Anders 2.2in colour TFT range offers high brightness, low-power operation, sunlight readability and a variety of interfaces, as well as touchscreen an...
