IAR Systems will make three significant announcements at the Embedded World 2009 Exhibition and Conference, 3rd-5th March 2009, in Nuremberg, Germany. One of the first trace debuggers for ARM Cortex-M3 cores will be demonstrated. The IAR J-Trace tool connects to the PC host running Windows via USB and integrates seamlessly into IAR Embedded Workbench for plug-and-play operation.

In the industry standard 1/8-brick footprint, Ericsson Power Modules’ PKB-C DC/DC converterThe PKB-C’s uses a secondary digital monitoring circuit to make it possible to offer control of an infinite number of customers’ output circuit characteristics, such as latching, Over Voltage Protection (OVP), Over Current Protection (OCP) and Over Temperature Protection (OTP) – all without adding any extra components. Because this circuit can be p...

Robust Rotary Encoder Delivers Precise Positioning in Harshest Environments

Avago Technologies has introduced its first series of transmissive photointerrupters for office automation and vending machine applications. With the addition of the AEDS-93XX photointerrupter series, Avago becomes a one-stop supplier of motion control solutions for manufacturers of printers, scanners, and vending machines that use both devices.

Avago Technologies has announced its first series of small six-channel optical incremental C-shaped encoder modules for Brushless DC motors used in industrial automation applications. Avago's AEDB-9340 series modules, which include a codewheel with an optical radius of 15 mm (0.590in), are designed to reduce overall motor size and fit easily into round encoder housings.

Aerco has announced the Model 462 compact, two-axis, force operated joystick control from Ultra MSI. Because of its small size and low weight, it is ideal for systems that require precise control and where space is limited.

Aerco now stocks three models in the popular range of multi-axis, Ultra MSI joysticks that are fully RoHS compliant and can therefore be used in a far wider range of application areas. The 501C and the 5000C are RoHS compliant joysticks that use Hall Effect technology to provide many benefits over traditional potentiometer and inductive joystick designs.

Sony Europe’s Image Sensing Solutions Division has announced the introduction of a new analogue progressive scan (PS) camera that combines SXGA resolution with a high frame rate of up to 30fps. The compact XC-HR90 device confers an unrivalled combination of precision and speed for inspection applications in industries such as electronics and robotics, packaging, automotive and food and drink.

At this year's VISION show in Stuttgart, Sony Europe's Image Sensing Solutions (ISS) division will be placing the emphasis on its GigE camera modules and highlighting the technical innovations that the technology enables. The division will also be demonstrating a futuristic computer control technology based on vision systems.
