Supplier of high performance sensor solutions, ams, will showcase innovative optical sensing technologies which are transforming personal health monitoring, the mobile phone, automotive evolution, and smart agriculture at the Sensors Expo 2019 (25th to 27th June, San Jose, CA). The company will also lead two Sensors Expo conference sessions.

A new family of optical scanning angle encoders has been developed by HEIDENHAIN for demanding applications requiring constant speed control or high positional stability. The modular design of the ERP 1000 encoders includes numerous circular scale variants and HEIDENHAIN’s HSP 1.0 signal processing ASIC (application-specific integrated circuit), its first ever use in an angle rather than a linear encoder.

Specialists in visualisation in debugging technology for electronic circuits and systems, Concept Engineering, has announced that NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory will use Concept Engineering’s E-engine and EEvision system visualisation software to develop electronics for space missions to Mars and Jupiter moon Europa.

An expert in power conversion, Ideal Power, has recently added ‘The Pulser’ the P08 1/8 brick, from Glary Power Technology. The new released DC/DC converter delivers 12V/25A designed with patented ‘Buck-Reset Forward’ topology and proprietary ‘Partial-Resonant-Synchronous-Rectifer’ rectification stage switching at 450kHZ frequency to deliver 300 watts of power and achieving 94% conversion efficiency.

The demand for standard medical open frame power supplies has increased drastically; provided the supplier can offer the right product range and modifications. More and more customers in the field of medical technology are trying to rejuvenate their products and design whole device families and on a platform basis.

A crane may not use its brakes often, but when the need arises, they must be able to operate with the complete reliability. It’s a quality that Stromag, a brand of Altra Industrial Motion, designs into its turnkey crane braking packages. As a result, Stromag braking systems are the solution of choice for several crane OEMs around the world.

A new range of low profile SMT automotive antennas from AVX/Ethertronics, providing RF performance and global coverage are now available from TTI. The antennas support different worldwide frequency bands and high performance, yet occupy minimal PCB real estate.

Low-profile SMT automotive antennas from AVX/Ethertronics that provide RF performance and give global coverage are now available from TTI. The antennas support different worldwide frequency bands and ensure superior performance, yet occupy minimal PCB real estate.

Steve Rogerson looks at some of the news that may have missed the front page.My travels last month took me to the biggest shoe-leather-eating event in the calendar. Yes, I am talking about the enormous electronica exhibition in Munich, which was even bigger than in previous years. As per usual, I boosted my daily step count to silly levels with the combination of the event and me exploring the bars of Munich in the evening.

This reference design from Texas Instruments details how to drive various forms of electronically dimmable glass, including SPD-SmartGlass and APD Glass from a car battery. This illustrates how to make a DC/AC inverter using the LM5155-Q1 boost converter with a charge pump, two UCC27712-Q1 half bridge drivers, and a TMS320F2807 microcontroller for PWM creation and system monitoring.
