Data acquisition system scans up to 50,000 samples/sec
A high-speed data acquisition system for dynamic test and measurement applications has been introduced by Micro-Measurements. It features a scanner with 12 RJ-45 strain gauge inputs and four configurable auxiliary slots to accommodate signals from thermocouples, piezoelectric sensors (both charge mode and voltage mode), and high-level voltage sensors.
Chip capacitors increase volumetric efficiency to save space
Vishay Intertechnology has introduced a series of vPolyTan solid tantalum surface-mount chip capacitors that delivers increased volumetric efficiency for handheld consumer electronics. Combining polymer tantalum technology with Vishay's high-efficiency MicroTan→ packaging, the T58 series achieves industry-best capacitance-voltage ratings in six molded case codes, including 47µF-6.3V in the compact M0 (1608-10) case and 220µF-10V ...
FRFC flip chip resistors offer ultra-stable performance
VPG Foil Resistors announced that its brand has released the FRFC series, a new family of ultra-high-precision flip chip resistors based on the market-leading Z1 Foil Technology. The FRFC series delivers remarkable load life stability of 50 ppm, better withstanding to higher temperatures, and better moisture resistance than previous-generation foil resistors.
Fast proximity sensor eliminates DACs to lower costs
Vishay Intertechnology has introduced an infrared (IR) sensor designed to provide fast, low-cost proximity sensing in a variety of systems. The Vishay Semiconductors TSSP4056 is the industry's first fixed-gain sensor containing a band-pass filter tuned to 56kHz to feature a monotonic sensitivity vs. frequency response curve from 30 to 54kHz.
Transmissive sensors qualified to AEC-Q101
The TCPT1600 and TCUT1600 transmissive sensors from Vishay are now being shipped by Mouser Electronics. The compact, surface-mount transmissive optical sensors are qualified to AEC-Q101 standards for automotive and industrial applications, and feature a wide operating temperature range of -40 to +125 degrees Celsius.
Power Metal Strip resistor increases accuracy & reduces TCR
Combining an extended power rating to 0.5W with a Kelvin 4-terminal connection, Vishay Intertechnology has announced a surface-mount Power Metal Strip current sense resistor in the compact 1206 case size. The WSK1206...18 High Power reduces TCR down to 35ppm, enables tight tolerances down to 0.1% for increased measurement accuracy and offers low resistance values down to 0.01Ω to minimise excess power dissipation.
Ambient light sensor saves space in backlight dimming
Vishay Intertechnology has introduced a new high-accuracy digital ambient light sensor for flat-panel televisions and consumer handheld devices. The VEML7700 combines a photo-diode, low-noise amplifier and 16-bit ADC in a miniature, transparent surface-mount package measuring 6.8x3.0x2.35mm. The sensor adopts Filtron technology and supports an I²C bus interface for simple operation.
Companies partner to meet demand for precision strain gages
Micro-Measurements, a Vishay Precision Group (VPG) brand, has announced that it has established a distribution partnership with South Africa-based Elexsys to meet the country's high demand for precision strain gages in medical, test and measurement, military, force measurement, and energy applications.
A wave of products on show at APEC 2016
