Harwin has introduced a new high-reliability connector family based on a 1.25mm pitch. Named Gecko, the new connectors have benefited from Harwin’s exceptional track record of manufacturing high-reliability connectors for safety-critical applications.

The term ‘smart system’ is well used, but what exactly does it mean? There are many definitions but the one that fits best for the purposes of this discussion is that provided by the European Commission’s CORDIS programme: “Smart systems typically are sensors and/or actuators with an ability to process data, diagnose complex situations, communicate with each other and be autonomous in energy use.”

The RHC2512 is a two-watt thick film chip resistor which utilizes special materials, design, and processing to achieve low heat rise compared to other high power chip resistors. The RHC2512 has a hot spot temperature of just under 120C at 2 watts where most 2512 size chip resistors may reach that temperature at only 1 watt of applied power.

Roboteq introduces an intelligent controller capable of directly driving a hall-sensor equipped brushless DC motor up to 120Amps at up to 50V. The MBL1650 is targeted at designers making mobile robots, automated systems, or any other high power brushless motor control application.

Bud Industries is proud to announce that it can now make simple modifications on electronic enclosures to customer specifications in five days – faster than the 10- and 15-day turnarounds offered by some enclosure suppliers, and at no extra cost for the expedited service.

Linear has today announced the introduction of the LTM4641, a 4.5V to 38V input, 0.6V to 6V output, 10A step-down µModule regulator with comprehensive electrical and thermal protection for loads such as processors, ASICs and high-end FPGAs. The LTM4641 µModule regulator monitors input voltage, output voltage and temperature conditions.

A complete, expandable two-axis motion control system built into a military specification casing is now available from INMOCO of Daventry. Called the Puma, the system is built by Elmo Motion Control and consists of their military multi-axis network controller, the Gold Lion, and two powerful Gold Hornet military servo drives of up to 20A/100V.

Ohmite Manufacturing announces that it will showcase its newest products at Electronica 2012, in Munich Germany. They show is taking place from November 13-16, and Ohmite will be in Hall B6, Booth #334. Products on display include Ohmite’s D Series of heat sinks, FC4L Series of resistors, and CP4 Series of cold plate four-pass heat sinks.

Atmel today announced that Alf-Egil Bogen, Atmel AVR microcontroller co-inventor, will deliver a keynote address at the World Maker Faire 2012 held at the New York Hall of Science in Queens, New York, September 29-30, 2012. The company has also been nominated for a 2012 Makey Award for its commitment to the fast-growing Arduino community.

Xilinx is proud to announce that it was been presented with an Outstanding Achievement award at the Electronic Product Design e-Legacy Awards 2012 event in London earlier this month. Xilinx was recognized in the Medical Advances category for the inventive use of FPGAs in a robot-assisted, minimally invasive surgical application for 3D vision and precise control by longtime customer, Intuitive Surgical, in its popular da Vinci.
