8-channel, 12-bit oscilloscopes push up to 1GHz
Further, finer, faster is how Teledyne LeCroy is describing its HDO8000 oscilloscope product line launched today (June 17). The further is 8 analog input channels, the finer is 12-bits of vertical resolution utilising Teledyne LeCroy’s HD4096 high definition technology, and the faster is up to 1 GHz of bandwidth. A wide variety of mixed-signal, serial data, long memory, and probe options and accessories are available with the HDO8000 oscill...
Wire-to-wire connector has unique plug/socket shapes
Suitable for space-constrained applications, Hirose has expanded its robust DF62 series slim in-line connector product offering to include two versions with unique plug/socket shapes. The enhanced wire-to-wire connectors feature a pin layout arranged in a 2.2x2.0mm grid pattern creating a smaller diagonal diameter.
Wearable technology controls behaviour
The recent fitting of an alcohol-detecting band to a convicted binge drinker in the UK is a reminder of how the use of wearable electronics for behaviour control is proceeding apace. In a first for the UK, the authorities fixed a SCRAM alcohol-detecting leg band to a high risk offender. By Dr Peter Harrop, Chairman, IDTechEx.
Compact transceiver for long range wireless applications
Suited to industrial applications requiring long range and high-reliability, Radiometrixhas launched the SFX2 radio Transceiver module. The device operates on the500mW 458.5-459.5MHz license-free Industrial/ Commercial Telemetry band in the UK and Ireland, but many other frequency options are available to order.
A strong future for electric quadcopters
A recent report from IDTechEx, "Unmanned Aerial Vehicles: Electric UAVs 2014-2024", has been tracking changes in the market, none quicker than the adoption of pure electric quadcopters. The starting point for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles is rarely military; it is at the other extreme with toy helicopters and predating professional UAV helicopters and so on.
