Research to develop real-time computational 3D imaging
It has been announced that HORIBA Scientific has developed for QuantIC, the UK Quantum Technology Hub in Quantum Enhanced Imaging, Time-Correlated Single-Photon Counting (TCSPC) electronics to support its research into real-time computational 3D imaging and Light Detection And Ranging (LiDAR).
Portable high performance PC-controlled RF source
A PC-based signal generator with a 300kHz to 8GHz frequency output range has been introduced by Saelig Company, with the PicoSource AS108 Agile Synthesiser. It is designed with fast settling time and extensive programmable phase, frequency, and amplitude capabilities
Single-chip 1080p LCOS microdisplay with integrated driver
Developer of advanced digital imaging solutions, OmniVision Technologies, has announced the OP02220, a 1080p liquid crystal on silicon (LCOS) microdisplay with integrated driver functions and memory. This compact, low-power and cost-effective microdisplay is suited for augmented reality (AR) applications such as glasses and head-mounted displays that need durability, compactness and lightweight.
Oscilloscopes drive partial discharge measurement system
The PicoScope 5000D FlexRes oscilloscopes from Pico Technololgy have been chosen by Diagnóstico del Aislamiento Eléctrico (DIAEL) as a key component for its new MS Pico portable system for partial discharge measurement. Partial discharge measurement is the most important technique for assessing the insulation condition of high-voltage systems and provides an effective solution for assessing the reliability of electrical installation...
32-bit microcontrollers are based on robust security
Availability of the SAM L10 and SAM L11 family of 32-bit microcontrollers (MCUs) from Microchip Technology has been announced by RS Components. Supporting development kits that enable users to experience the high performance levels and integrated hardware-based security delivered by these new Arm Cortex-powered MCUs are also in stock.
BioPrinters could help fight antibiotic resistance
HP has announced its participation in a pilot program run by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) that aims to accelerate the testing of new antibiotics designed to fight antimicrobial resistant bacteria. The pilot uses HP technology to 'print' pharmaceutical samples. As part of the pilot, CDC will deploy new HP D300e Digital Dispenser BioPrinters to four regional labs in the Antibiotic Resistance (AR) Lab Network, to develop anti...
PC-based scopes can measure digital and analogue signals
A series of PC-based oscilloscopes manufactured by Pico Technology are available from RS Components. The PC-based 5000D series oscilloscopes and mixed-signal oscilloscopes (MSOs) offer up to 16-bit vertical resolution, up to 200MHz bandwidth and 1GS/s sampling speed. Offering two- and four-channel models in the range, the devices are designed to be connected to PCs, and integrate the high-speed USB 3.0 connection to allow waveform data to be save...
Making electronics design faster and easier
FLIR Systems has published a customer testimonial video from Highland Technology (San Francisco, CA) in which staff describe their experience of using a FLIR ETS320 benchtop thermal imaging system which has made electronics design testing easier and more efficient.
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.
Low-power MCUs see off security threats
Availability of the Microchip SAM L10 and SAM L11 Xplained Pro Evaluation Kits and associated MCUs has been announced by distributor Farnell element14. The devices are the industry’s lowest-power 32-bit MCUs as well as the first to offer chip-level security and Arm TrustZone Technology.
