UVC LED Solutions prove their worth on European tour
UVC LEDs are beginning to become more and more accepted in the large-scale disinfection of water, air, and surfaces. Representatives at LG Innotek and Laser Components were able to prove this to numerous customers during a recent trip through Germany, Austria, and Switzerland.
DIN rail power supplies are slim and space-saving
DIN rail power supplies from Siemens, which are suited to a wide range of industrial automation applications are now available at RS Components. Designed for use in distributed power applications in machine control boxes or in small cabinets, the single-phase SITOP PSU6200 power supplies are slim and space-saving, with plug-in terminals that support easy electrical connection.
On the road to better lighting with LED luminaries
In conjunction with electrical distributor Rexel, the LEDVANCE truck is back on the road for visitors to experience first-hand the comprehensive range of easy to install LED luminaires. To celebrate the tour, Rexel is running a competition to win a two-night break at the five-star Celtic Manor Resort.
LED grow light winner in ‘Horticultural Lighting’
Developer of LED technologies and horticultural grow lighting, Plessey, has announced that its Hyperion Grow Light was recognised by the judges of the annual Sapphire Awards program at a Gala Event in Las Vegas on February 28th, 2019.
LED pitch lighting using robotics installed
The connected lighting system from Signify, Interact Sports, has been installed at the Toyota Stadium in Aichi, Japan. It's the first outdoor stadium in Japan to install connected LED pitch lighting in combination with high performance Philips ArenaVision LEDs. Unique in the project was the use of robotic measurement while installing the connected lighting system.
New era sunlight spectrum LEDs are close to actual sunlight
Imagine artificial lighting in a business or home setting with LEDs producing close to actual sunlight all day long. Well now you can get just that with the Sunlight Spectrum 2835 SMD packages from Selectronic and its Chinese partners HongliTronic.
Flagship smartphones produce photos with high colour quality
Reasserting its market position in camera flash LEDs while at Mobile World Congress, Lumileds has introduced the LUXEON Flash 9X with Spectral Pure Technology LED that produces photos with high colour quality. Noted for its small form factor (1.4x1.4mm chip scale package), this robust LED is suited to produce photos with vivid colours including the most realistic skin tones captured on any smart phone.
Development kit includes onboard emulation for programming
The SimpleLink MSP-EXP432P4111 LaunchPad development kit from Texas Instruments is an easy-to-use evaluation module (EVM) for the MSP432P4111 MCU. It contains everything needed to start developing on the SimpleLink MSP432 low-power and performance Arm 32-bit Cortex-M4F MCU, including onboard emulation for programming, debugging, and energy measurements.
Interference-free transmission with the Ethernet media converter
The new media converter, FL MC EF 660 SCRJ, from Phoenix Contact aims to enable the connection of cost-effective polymer and HCS/PCF fibre technology. The optical transmission of data via fibre optics is free of electromagnetic interference and provides complete electrical isolation on the transmission path. This is therefore particularly suitable for Ethernet applications.
What is the most effective way to commutate a BLDC motor?
Brushless direct current electric motors, or BLDC motors for short, are electronically commutated motors powered by a dc electric source via an external motor controller. Unlike their brushed relatives, BLDC motors rely on external controllers to achieve commutation. Put simply, commutation is the process of switching the current in the motor phases to generate motion. By Jason Kelly, CUI
