Reed relay suits high-PCB-density applications
The reed relay company with a focus on miniaturisation and high performance, Pickering Electronics, has added a new 10W-rated reed relay to its successful 4mm2 product family which features devices that occupy a PCB footprint of only four by four millimetres, facilitating the highest packing density currently available.
Smaller and faster - the challenges of interconnection
Designing electronic devices is never easy, as engineering professionals know only too well. Meeting the ambitious project goals almost always means making trade-offs of some description, so as to deal with the conflicting objectives of marketing departments and end customers - who inevitably expect significantly more functionality than the previous generation, while occupying much less board real estate.

Range of power devices expanded to offer complete solutions
At PCIM in Nuremberg, Germany (7th-9th May, 2019), ROHM Semiconductor will showcase power semiconductor solutions focused on E-mobility and power supply applications. Energy savings and reduced system costs in all kinds of systems are heavily influenced by choosing the right power device.
Adhesives dispensing expertise shared at FAST Live
To help the industry better tackle the challenges of technology and manufacturing using adhesives and protective materials, Peter Swanson, Managing Director at adhesives specialist Intertronics, ran a seminar at FAST Live. Swanson offered insights into dispensing technology, process validation and the latest positive displacement and jetting technologies.
Improving efficiency in cars for electromobility
To improve the efficiency in modern cars on the way to electromobility and in challenging industrial power conversion applications the power density has to be increased without limitations on performance and reliability. Based on the AT&S ECP (Embedded Components Packaging) technology active and passive components have been integrated into PCBs for low-power designs and are used in volume production meeting high-quality requirements.
Automotive logic parts 64% smaller than leaded equivalents
Specialist in discretes, logic and MOSFET devices, Nexperia, has announced that over twenty logic types in the company’s space-saving leadless MicroPak packages are now AEC-Q100 qualified. These logic solutions claim to be the smallest devices of their type suitable for automotive applications and Nexperia’s Q100 portfolio exceeds the Automotive Electronics Council’s requirements.
