Cool designs for miniaturised high-power applications
Some major concerns for modern electronic applications include miniaturisation and increasing power densities. The lifetime of electronic applications can be dramatically reduced by the increase of the working temperatures by just a few degrees. Further, the insulation of the whole printed circuit board (PCB) from the environment in order to provide efficient protection against humidity and dust for certain applications turns heat dissipation an ...
DSEI 2017: Connector series adds two power configurations
Advances in miniaturisation, performance and data transfer with the MiniMax USB 3.0 and UltiMate Power solutions were showcased by Fischer Connectors at DSEI. The lightweight, high-density, signal & power Fischer MiniMax Series has been extended to include a newdedicatedUSB 3.0 contact block in the 08 size.
Robust connectors designed for miniaturisation in the rail sector
Designed specifically to meet today’s requirements for miniaturisation in the rail sector, HARTING has introduced the new Han 16 HPR EasyCon, a robust industrial connector.The compact connector housing has been designed to accommodate up to four high-current contacts carrying up to 650A each, providing sufficient power for vehicle-mounted equipment such as compressors, single-wheel drives and ventilation systems.
Solid state technologies break into medical imaging
Solid state imaging technologies have revolutionised medical imaging equipment from X-ray machines to ultrasonic scanners, writes Sally Ward-Foxton.
Shining a light on automotive illumination solutions
With the increase in applications of lighting systems, especially in passenger cars, the demand for energy-efficient lighting is on the rise. Owing to the properties such as low power consumption and high design flexibility, the demand for LED lighting has grown significantly in the past few years, especially in the interior lighting segment. However, technologically advanced laser systems are also projected to evolve and gain momentum during the...
DSEI 2017: Distributor highlights sensors, capacitors
The Defence and Security Equipment International(DSEI) exhibition (12-15 September) at ExCeL in London's Docklands will provide a platform for distributor TTI and its franchises. Many of TTI’s franchises have customers that operate in the defense, aerospace, security and other hi-rel sectors.
Würth collaborates on research into tech driven by Baden-Württemberg SMEs
Despite current stability and positive sales growth in the circuit board industry, it must be presumed that consolidation has not yet come to an end. Circuit board manufacturers are facing enormous price erosion caused by Asian circuit boards, as well as rising manufacturing costs in Europe and generally intense global competition. Reliability, investment in new technologies and manufacturing processes, and innovation are the key to future succes...
Providing Ethernet straight to the circuit board
To allow fast Ethernet and PoE (Power over Ethernet) communications to be interfaced directly to a circuit board via an individual miniaturised connector, a new M8 D-coded PCB adaptor has been introduced by HARTING.
Heavy duty connectors offer lower installation times
Global connectivity and sensor provider, TE Connectivity (TE),offers a range of connectivity solutions for diverse motor types. With trends in connectivity toward more miniaturisation, reduced installation times, improved reliability, and lower costs in installation and operation, TE’s heavy duty connectors are suitable for numerous applications in servo and spindle motors.Designed to perform reliably under the most demanding conditions, TE...
Smart power switches offer improved efficiency & miniaturisation
Car makers want in-vehicle electronic systems to provide a large number of energy-efficient functions in as little space as possible. Infineon supports this trend with its new power IC manufacturing technology SMART7. Infineon designed it specifically for automotive applications such as body control modulesor power distribution centres. SMART7 power ICs drive, diagnose and protect loads in applications like heating, power distribution, air-condit...
