Image sensor sockets de-risk device manufacturing
Image sensor sockets produced by Andon are available to customers in the UK and Ireland from Luso Electronics. The sockets enable OEMs and contract manufacturers to de-risk their production processes by removing the need to solder the image sensor itself to their PCBs. Instead, soldering the socket to the PCB protects sensors from damage during board assembly and processing, while also providing an easy and cost-effective method for future device...
Cylindrical supercapacitors have excellent power handling
AVX has released a new series of cylindrical, electrochemical, double-layer supercapacitors. Rated for 2.7V and delivering high capacitance values (1F – 3,000F), low ESR (0.16mΩ – 200mΩ at 1,000KHz), low leakage (6µA – 5,800µA), high energy density (1.2 to 5.6Wh/kg), and long lifetime performance (50,000+ cycles).
