Two-wire hall effect switches with self-diagnostics
Diodes has announced a family of automotive-compliant, two-wire unipolar (AH323xQ/4xQ) and latch (AH327xQ/8xQ) hall effect switches with integrated circuits (ICs) that provide high sensitivity and high stability over wide operating voltage and temperature ranges.
Three trends transforming the factory floor
Bringing data analytics, communications and real-time control, robots and machine tools become cyber-physical systems that can intelligently respond to changes in conditions
Smart cities: a $400bn opportunity for advanced materials
This webinar explains how, of the trillions of dollars being spent on smart cities, the advanced materials part is rising to hundreds of billions yearly. Newly multipurpose buildings make food and surplus energy. Learn how multifunctional infrastructure, equipment and materials are making possible independence in city energy, food and water with zero emissions, greater security and empowerment of the disadvantaged.
TMR magnetic sensors offer enhanced accuracy
Murata is now including in its portfolio advanced 1D linear and 2D angular sensor devices from Crocus Technology based on tunnel magnetic resistance (TMR) technology.
Alloy research could benefit manned space missions
Manned space missions in spacecraft made of aluminium that is light yet resistant to radiation could be a step nearer following research involving the University of Huddersfield.The MIAMI-2 – Microscopes and Ion Accelerators for Materials Investigations – facility has helped Dr Matheus Tunes investigate a new alloy that will harden aluminium without increasing its weight significantly.
Ferrite chip beads for automotive applications
Murata has announced the release of the BLM18KN_EH series of ferrite chip beads for noise suppression in power lines at temperatures up to 175°C. Target applications are automotive equipment such as engine and transmission electronic control units (ECUs) and turbo motor controllers, with the components meeting AEC-Q200 qualification requirements.
Isolated integrated current sensors for automotive applications
Melexis has announced its second-generation of isolated integrated current sensors MLX91220 (5V) and MLX91221 (3.3V). The Hall-effect based current sensors are qualified for use in a range of automotive and industrial applications, such as On-Board Chargers (OBC), DC/DC converters, power supplies, and small electric drives. With 300kHz bandwidth, they suit a variety of power conversion applications lower than 50A RMS.
Flexible hybrid electronics requires attachment materials
We are often told that ‘you can’t have your cake and eat it.’ However, many technological advancements succeed commercially precisely because they eliminate an existing compromise. Flexible hybrid electronics (FHE) is a great example of an emerging technology that removes a previous trade-off, specifically between the flexibility of printed electronics and functionality of conventional PCBs, and is thus rapidly gaining traction.
Hang up your clothes to charge
Using RF technology, a wireless charging wardrobe could build a wireless power network for e-textiles and wearable technology
The fundamentals of switched mode power supplies
Switched mode power supplies are ubiquitous but often poorly understood. To optimise their use in systems requires an understanding of how the various types and how they operate
