Transducer for high performance audio applications
A 3" (75mm) round neodymium audio drive unit for high performance audio applications, Tectonic Elements has announced the latest addition to its family of Balanced Mode Radiator (BMR) speaker drivers. The TEBM46C20N-4B transducer delivers extended frequency range and wide audio dispersion from a very compact audio transducer.
40V amplifier significantly improves system performance
Analog Devices has introduced the industry’s fastest operational amplifier for driving heavy loads at high voltage and high output current, including piezoelectric transducers, PIN diodes, laser diodes, power FETs, coils and CCDs. The 40-V ADA4870 amplifier delivers over 1A of output current at more than twice the slew rate (2500 V/s) of competing high output-power amplifiers, enabling applications including higher accuracy, high-intensity ...
Industrial pressure transducer for OEM applications
Suitable for use in OEM applications requiring high accuracy, Measurement Specialties has announced a cost-effectiveindustrial pressure transducer. The U5200 incorporates a stainless steel housing with a large selection of threaded fittings, electrical connectors and cable options to give designers a reliable transducer tailored to their specific application environment.
ASIC-based current transducers extend range to 250A
PCIM 2014: Three HO series open-loop, Hall-effect ASIC-based current transducers have been released by LEM. They have a wide operating range of -40 to +105̊C. Stéphane Rollier says that the transducers are the only ones in the industry to offer over-current protection.The versatile devices offer a range of mounting options, PCB, panel or bus bar, and exploiting the aperture which measures 15 x 8mm, for cables and clamps.
High-temperature MLCCs are rated to 250°C
A series ofMLCCs, designed to deliverlong lifetime performance at operating temperatures in excess 125°C, has been launched by AVX. Rated to anindustry leading 250°C, the MLCCs have been designed to accomadatethe rapidly emerging military and commercial market demands for high temperature, reliable capacitors. TheAT Series capacitors exhibit high current handling capabilities, high volumetric efficiency, high insulation resistance, and ex...
8x8mm aperture extends transducer options
LEM has added three new members to its HO series of PCB-through-hole mounting current transducers, which provide an aperture of 8 x 8 mm to carry the primary conductor under measurement, extending the options for this form-factor. The new models, for 6, 10 or 25 A nominal measurements of DC, AC, and pulsed signals benefit from the revised LEM Open-loop Hall-effect ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit) introduced several months ago with t...
Instrument captures thermal data to profile PCBs, heat sinks
The iQ-200 instrument measures the temperatures of solid materials and surrounding air, while also tracking air velocity and air pressure. Measurements are taken simultaneously at multiple points to accurately profile heat sinks, PCBs and card racks for testing and characterisation. Developed by Advanced Thermal Solutions, (ATS), the laboratory-grade instrument simultaneously captures thermal data from up to 12 thermocouples which can be J, K, T ...
Strain gauges take centre stage at Sensor & Test
At the Sensor & Test in June VPG Micro-Measurments and Transducers will be showing the next generation strain gauges and the System 8000 StrainSmart data acquisition system. The strain gauges are produced on an advanced manufacturing technology line at its Micro-Measurements Advanced Sensors facility. This facility has the latest processing equipment, which is now providing replacement gages for many of M-M's existing transducer class product...
Reference design turns up the heat on temperature measurement
Maxim Integrated’s Novato smart temperature-transmitter reference design transmits temperature measurement over -200 °C to +850 °C range with better than ±0.1 % accuracy. IT will enable factories to accurately measure and transmit industrial temperatures with the reference design, a 4–20mA loop-powered temperature transmitter with the HART communication protocol. Temperature is among the most widely measured parameters ...
