Contactless current sensor features minimum power loss
ROHM has recently announced the availability of a small contactless current sensor, the BM14270MUV-LB. It achieves minimum power loss (no heat generation) in an ultra-compact size, making it suitable for industrial equipment and consumer devices that detect operating conditions via current, including battery-driven drones, solar power systems, and servers in data centres requiring high power.
Next generation industrial cyber security platform
Today the IIoT infrastructure has encountered increasing cyber security threats due to the vulnerability by the use of public networks for IT/OT convergence. This has exposed exploitable opportunities for hackers. To add confidence in industrial control system (ICS), Lanner presents LEC-6041, the next-generation industrial cyber security gateway.
From idea to real prototype in a fast, flexible and lean way
The automotive industry request sensor prototypes to test new algorithms and application possibilities in the early stage of their design. For this reason, Infineon developed a new methodology, allowing a smooth transition from idea to implementation. By Simone Fontanesi, Gaetono Formato, Andrea Monterastelli, Infineon Technologies
SWS steering wheel sensor for warehouse trucks
The SWS Steering Wheel Sensor, has been introduced by Allied Motion Technologies, a compact steer-by-wire steering wheel feedback sensor designed specifically for warehouse vehicles like reach, counterbalance, and lift trucks. Steering wheels can be mounted directly to the SWS and connected to a CAN bus.
Wireless torque measurement at the heart of distribution network
The evolution of the UK’s power distribution network holds the key to harnessing the benefits of variable power sources such as wind, tidal and solar farms, as well as numerous other distributed power technologies. But connecting these various sources to the network is not without its challenges, and is the subject of research at the University of Warwick, where a test rig has been built to identify the requirements of a suitable power elec...
SST-MRAM as a last-level cache at the five nanometre technology node
At the 2018 IEEE International Electron Devices Meeting (IEDM), imec, the research and innovation hub in nanoelectronics and digital technologies, presented a power-performance-area comparison between SRAM- and SST-MRAM-based last-level caches at the five nanometre node.
Two breakthroughs for spintronic logic devices
At the 2018 IEEE International Electron Devices Meeting (IEDM), imec, and its partners presented an experimental demonstration of full majority gate operation based on spin-wave interference in scaled devices. Circuit-level benchmarking recommends majority gates based on spin-waves for ultralow power applications.
Magnetometer makes workplaces safer
A straightforward means of taking safety measurements in workplaces where personnel are at risk from the effects of static or time-varying magnetic fields is provided by the HP-01 magnetometer from Link Microtek. Manufactured by Narda Safety Test Solutions, the device features an extremely wide measurement range of 10µT to 10T, while built-in orthogonally mounted Hall-effect sensors allow the field to be determined with a single measurement...
Fast and accurate isolated current measurement with mini transducers
A fast measurement speed, achieved within tight cost and size constraints while integrating the primary conductor in SO packages without compromising the necessary insulation, is often as critical as the other high performances for current measurement in motor-drive applications. That is why LEM’s GO miniature transducers have been designed to achieve a 2µs response time from 2 standard, cost-effective SO8 or SO16 packages for nominal...
Experiment confirms high-speed potential of STT-MRAM
A collaboration between Advantest and Tohoku University’s Center for Innovative Integrated Electronic Systems led by Tetsuo Endoh has successfully demonstrated operation of a high-writing-speed spin-transfer torque magnetic random access memory (STT-MRAM) using an Advantest memory test system.
