Top five green materials for electronics
When going 'green' with electronic products,the goal is to minimise energy use and have less of an environmental impact than traditional electronics. This could meanless energyused while mining materials and manufacturing the device, or it could mean thatlifetimeusageof the products made from these materials requires less energy. Here, Jordan Flagel, guest author atMatmatch, explains which green materials are the most suitable in electronics.
Mouser, Apex Microtechnology agree global deal
Mouser Electronics has signed a global distribution agreement with Apex Microtechnology, a HEICO company and a supplier of high-power analogue components.
Precision mixing contains costs for product development
A pre-pilot precision mixing plant is using wireless TorqSense transducers for ultra-accurate viscosity measurement of high-value compounds. The plant is used to prepare small batches of compounds from shampoo and detergent to cosmetics, therapeutic and medical preparations. Some of the ingredients in the compounds are very expensive, so product developers are loath to make large batches early in the formulation process.
Vesper adaptive ZeroPower listening for smart home devices
Vesper has introduced VM3011, an intelligent digital microphone with Adaptive ZeroPower Listening, a power saving architecture that enables a ten times extension of battery standby life with acoustic performance. The VM3011 further extends Vesper’s technology leadership in the low-power always-listening device market.
RD24 power connectors get more versatile
binder has added new versions to its popular RD24 power connector series. Among the new Series 692/693 connectors is a version that can accommodate cables with diameters from 7 mm to 17mm and a panel mount version that binder has designed for use with thicker front panels.
Driving piezoelectric transducer buzzers
Forming part of the user interface apparatus, piezoelectric transducer buzzers can provide an important function in a broad array of electronic equipment. Through incorporation of one of these electromechanical components, an audible signal can be passed to the equipment’s user. By Ryan Smoot, CUI Devices
Precision op amp with ultra-low input offset voltage
Diodes Incorporated announced its first precision op amp (operational amplifier). The AS2333 uses chopper stabilisation to achieve ultra-low input offset voltage of 8µV (typical) and near-zero drift (0.02µV/oC, typical) over time and temperature.
PCB-mount current transducer features high stability
Danisense has launched its ultra-stable, high-precision DP series of PCB-mount current transducers for isolated DC and AC current measurement up to 72A. With a footprint of 64.9x60mm, a height of 32mm and light weight of 250g, this compact device is suitable for 1U power supplies and other space-constrained applications.
Pressure sensors boast strong immunity to EMI
The MediaSensor P51 Series pressure sensors from SSI Technologies have been added to the portfolio of distributorHeilind Electronics.
Medical alarms come in two different types
Sonalert Audible Medical Alarms in both speaker and piezoelectric transducer types from Mallory are in stock at New Yorker Electronics.
