Morgan Technical Ceramics showcases innovative ceramic materials at Electronica 2012
Morgan Technical Ceramics will showcase its extensive capabilities within the electronics industry on stand 511 in Hall B5 at Electronica 2012, to be held at the New Munich Trade Fair Centre from 13-16 November 2012.
LEM introduces the DVL series of compact, power saving voltage transducers for the traction market
LEM introduces the DVL series for insulated nominal voltage measurements in traction applications. This family of devices spans the range from 50-2000 VRMS and incorporates LEM’s proven and patented insulating technology. Despite achieving very high levels of isolation with a safety insulation voltage of 8.5 kV, the DVL transducer is compact, measuring only 137.8 x 63 x 64.3 mm. It is fully compatible with previous generations of transducers ...
Sherborne Sensors achieves AS9100C certification for precision Inclinometers, Accelerometers and Force Transducers
Sherborne Sensors has successfully completed AS9100 Rev C certification, the internationally recognized quality management system for commercial aviation, space and defence organizations. The AS9100 standard includes the fundamental ISO9001 quality management standard, as well as nearly 100 additional requirements specifically designed to address the stringent, complex and unique demands of the defence and commercial aerospace industry and has re...
Xtrinsic accelerometers provide advanced performance in a tiny package
Freescale has announced the release of new high-performance, low-power three-axis accelerometers in a 2x2 mm ultra-compact package. The pin-compatible Xtrinsic MMA8652FC 12-bit and MMA8653FC 10-bit accelerometers provide low noise and advanced motion accuracy for power- and space-constrained mobile devices, including smart phones, tablets, digital cameras, portable navigation solutions and health care applications.
Galvo and Controller Combination Offers Infinite Field of View
Aerotech’s Nmark AGV-HP advanced galvanometers use innovative optical feedback technology to increase resolution to greater than 24 bits. Both the standard AGV and higher performance AGV-HP series scanners may be directly driven by Aerotech’s Nmark CLS galvo controller, which offers a full suite of advanced application tools that include Position Synchronized Output and Infinite Field of View.
Model 58 Accelerometer for Crash & High Impact Testing
Measurement Specialties has just released the Model 58 accelerometer to production. This sensor is a MEMS DC response accelerometer designed for auto safety crash testing. It is packaged in a rugged housing with a shielded low-noise cable specifically designed for crush zone testing. The Model 58 accelerometer features a full bridge output configuration with a temperature range from -20 to +85ºC. A slight amount of internal gas damping provi...
New M7100 pressure transducer is available from Variohm EuroSensor
The newly released M7100 pressure transducer from Measurement Specialities is now available from Variohm EuroSensor. The ruggedised, automotive grade M7100 features a 0.5 – 4.5Vdc ratiometric output and is firmly aimed at heavy equipment and challenging environment use for medium to extremely high pressure ranges up to 3000 Bar.
LEM brings high-accuracy current measurement to electric vehicle battery packs
Transducer specialist LEM announces the CAB high-accuracy current transducer that enables makers of battery packs for Electric Vehicles (EVs) and Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEVs) to achieve a new level of precision when measuring current flow into and out of the battery. Car makers need this data to maximise the range of the vehicle, to keep the battery in good condition, and to enable use of the optimum size of battery pack.**
Alix Paultre of GlobTek Discusses Power Considerations in Advanced Embedded Systems
The migration of smart subsystems into products at every level of operation represents a true fusion of the electronic and mechanical, representing the next, and possibly the culmination of, the industrial revolution. However, the integration of sense, motion, and logic into all portions of a system also brings with it new (or old in new clothing) challenges in power management.
Sherborne Sensors’ load cells support Moon and Mars micro-rover mobility system
Sherborne Sensors has helped Canada’s Carleton University complete development of an innovative mobility system for a prototype micro-rover that in future may perform exploratory research missions on the Moon and Mars.
