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 ...

Low-cost pressure sensor is accurate in harsh environments
Providing an accuracy of ±0.25% F.S. BFSL in harsh environments, the M5200 is a low-cost, durable pressure transducer with exceptional modularity. Measurement Specialties' compact sensor canmeasure liquids or gases such as contaminated water, steam and mildly corrosive fluids, in commercial, automotive, agricultural and heavy industrial applications.
Revolutionary stencil cleaning system on show
Exhibiting at National Electronics Week ADEC Expo South Africa, Gen3 Systems and their South African distributor, Quamba Technologies, will be displaying the Gensonic stencil cleaning system. This cleaning system was named as the European Product of the Year, at productronica 2013.
Piezoelectric composites deliver improved acoustics over traditional materials
Enabling quicker response in medical components, Morgan Advanced Material's piezoelectric composites deliver improved acoustic performance over traditional transducer materials. They also feature higher transmit and receive efficiency, and can be produced in custom sizes, shapes, and materials.
Taking the pressure out of home monitoring
An analogue front-end suitable for blood pressure monitoring systems provides affordable accuracy in an increasingly cost-conscious use-case. Debbie Brandenburg, Product Marketing Manager, High Performance Analog Products, Exar, discusses more in this ES Design magazine article.
Energy harvesting for ultra-low power sensors
The considerable potential for energy harvesting in the field of medical implants — where the body itself could become the energy source — means the efforts to enable ultra-low power circuits and sensors to exploit energy harvesting are accelerating, enabling autonomous operation and battery-free design to be realised. By Rich Miron, Technical Content Team, Digi-Key.
