Don’t get overheated! Optimising temperature measurement applications starts with choosing the right sensors and instrumentation
Temperature measurements are integral to a wide variety of test and measurement applications, which makes it easy to understand why temperature is the most commonly measured parameter. Temperature measurements are part and parcel of: Power supply burn-in; Highly accelerated life testing (HALT); Highly accelerated stress testing (HASS); Device temperature profiling; Environmental stress screening; Plant/environment monitoring and control; Automoti...
Chopper-stabilised precision Hall-effect latches in small, robust packages with reverse battery protection
The new A3290 and A3291 from Allegro MicroSystems Europe are temperature-stable and stress-resistant Hall-effect latches in small, robust packages. Superior high-temperature performance is made possible through dynamic offset cancellation, which reduces the residual offset voltage normally caused by device package over moulding, temperature dependencies, and thermal stress. The two devices are targeted at non-automotive applications and are ident...
Current sensor offers 50-200A and low output noise
The new ACS758 from Allegro MicroSystems Europe is a thermally enhanced, high-current, Hall-effect-based linear current sensor that provides an economical and precise solution for AC or DC current sensing.
Pressure Transducers for tough environments from Inertial Aerosystems
Inertial Aerosystems has introduced an enhanced range of low cost smart pressure transducers, designed for tough environments. Designated the PPT range they combine proven analogue and digital sensor technology. Long term field testing has shown much improved performance and stability over the original specifications.
Enhanced Submersible Precision Pressure Transducer
Inertial Aerosystems has introduced a fully submersible version of its established PPTR Ruggedised SMART Digital Pressure Transducer. The unit, manufactured by US based Honeywell, incorporates a SEA CON electrical connector, which is qualified for use in depths in excess of 2000 metres. Codenamed the PPTR Submersible, it has an environmentally sealed stainless steel construction and is designed for use in severe conditions, primarily as a depth ...
Vishay Systems Web Tension Control Technology to Be Used in Coating Pilot Plant
Vishay Intertechnology has announced that it has provided a web tension measurement system to Western Michigan University (WMU) for use in its Coating Pilot Plant. WMU’s Coating Pilot Plant, located in Kalamazoo, Michigan, is a leading research center for papermaking, coating, printing, and recycling. Vishay is the major producer of strain gages and strain gage-based load cells, as well as systems based on strain gage technology. Vishay Systems...
Ultra-High-Precision High-Resolution Z-Foil Audio Resistor from Vishay
Vishay Intertechnology has announced an ultra-high-precision Z-Foil audio resistor that features a special design for increased clarity. The device provides a low typical TCR of ±0.2ppm/°C from -55°C to +125°C, +25°C ref., an excellent PCR (ΔR due to self heating) of 5ppm at rated power, an absolute tolerance of 0.01%, and current noise of
Tactilus Sensor System Ensures Optimal Heat Sink Efficiency
Heat sinks need to efficiently conduct heat away from the electronic components that generate this heat. The new Tactilus® heat-sink analysis system by Sensor Products Inc. enables research and design engineers to quickly and precisely test and correct the surface contact and pressure distribution between the heat sink and its source. Even a slight warping of the heat exchange structure or reduction in surface contact area can have a profound ef...
Sensor Film Minimizes Defects and Improves Quality in Wafer Bonding
Pressurex surface pressure indicaing film from Sensor Products Inc. is a quick, accurate and economical way to detect and correct pressure variations which can result in flaws (defects) in the wafer bonding process. When placed between contacting surfaces, it instantaneously and permanently changes color directly proportional to the actual pressure applied. With Pressurex®, variations in pressure that lead to imperfections (or irregularities) in...
