Torque transducers help test electric and hybrid powertrains
Wireless rotary torque transducers from Sensor Technology are at the heart of a test rig to develop next generation technologies for electric and hybrid vehicle powertrains. With expertise in the electric motors and electronics used across the key powertrain technologies, AVID Technology relies on the innovative torque transducers as part of an automated approach to motor characterisation.
Programmable current-output digital-to-analogue converter
The DAC8775 is a quad-channel precision, fully integrated, 16-bit, digital-to-analogue converter (DAC) with adaptive power management, and is designed to meet the requirements of industrial control applications. The adaptive power management circuit, when enabled, minimises the power dissipation of the chip.
DC current transducer monitors circuits with 1500VDC voltages
NK Technologies has introduced the DT-FD series DC Current Transducers. The DT-FD series provides a large sensing window and the ability to safely monitor circuits with voltages up to 1500VDC, and up to 400A.The sensor can be mounted on a DIN rail or attached to a back panel with screws.The easily accessible power supply, output-signal, and finger-safe terminals are located on the top of the sensor to allow for a clean and trouble-free installati...

Plug-and-play haptic module launched
The launch of plug-and-play haptic module, STRATOS Inspire, has been unveiled by Ultrahaptics based on its STRATOS platform. The STRATOS Inspire has been created for businesses and design agencies wanting to create more immersive and engaging digital experiences and touchpoints by adding tactile sensations (haptics).
Automotive ultrasonic sensing analogue front end
The TDC1000 is a fully integrated analog front-end (AFE) for ultrasonic sensing measurements of level, fluid identification/concentration, flow, and proximity/ distance applications common in automotive, industrial, medical, and consumer markets. When paired with an MSP430/C2000 MCU, power, wireless, and source code, TI provides the complete ultrasonic sensing solution.
Ultrasound patch monitors blood pressure deep inside body
A new wearable ultrasound patch that non-invasively monitors blood pressure in arteries deep beneath the skin could help people detect cardiovascular problems earlier on and with greater precision. In tests, the patch performed as well as some clinical methods to measure blood pressure.Applications include real-time, continuous monitoring of blood pressure changes in patients with heart or lung disease, as well as patients who are critically ill ...
Vibration reference sources on last time buy offer
As the UK distributor for Metrix Instrument, Ixthus Instrumentation sells and supports the USA-based machinery monitoring specialists’ full line of Hardy Portable Shaker vibration reference sources. Recently Metrix have announced that, whilst it will continue to produce the newer Hardy Shaker series HI-903/913 for years to come, its older HI803/813 models are due to be discontinued from 31st December this year.
Breathing sensor for neonatal patients cleared by the FDA
Masimo has announced FDA clearance of RAS-45, an acoustic respiration sensor for rainbow Acoustic Monitoring(RAM), for infant and neonatal patients. RAM could previously be used to monitor adult and pediatric patients greater than 10kg using RAS-125c and RAS-45 sensors. With clearance of the RAS-45 sensor for infant and neonatal patients, acoustic respiration rate measurement is now, for the first time, possible for patients of all sizes, includi...
