Rollout of proprietary technology realises significant benefits
Microelectronics engineering company, Melexis, has announced the rollout of its Integrated Magnetic Concentrator (IMC) technology to multiple devices within its Latch & Switch product range, delivering tangible benefits to designers, especially in demanding automotive applications.
Grid tie inverter reference design for solar string inverter
This verified reference design provides an overview on how to implement a three-level three-phase SiC based DC:AC grid-tie inverter stage. Higher switching frequency of 50KHz reduces the size of magnetics for the filter design and enables higher power density.
Vishay reveals technology slate for electronica
Vishay Intertechnology has announced its technology lineup for electronica 2018 in Munich (November 13-16). In its main booth C4.421-422 and Automotive Innovation booth B4.W07-W10 — both new locations for the company this year — the company will be exhibiting its latest passive and semiconductor component, optoelectronic, and sensor technologies for a wide range of applications.
SPS IPC Drives: EMC filters feature high frequency stability
SMP Sintermetalle Prometheus is presenting its EMC filters with high frequency stability. The specifically developed materials are now effective for frequencies up to the gigaHertz range.EMC filters reduce interference currents in power converter systems which are generated by parasitic effects and cyclic elements of the system.The material plays an important part in this: the target is to achieve stable inductance over the entire frequency spect...
Electro-magnetic sensor designed for 3D virtual experiences
PREMO has announced the 3DC14EM-ULP Series, the smallest in height (less than 50% of the parts in the market today).Most of the 3D-electromagnetic sensors in the market has a height around 3.2mm. The smallest height before ULP series was the PREMO 3DC06 invention, with 2.5mm.
Sensor programming tool designed for Hall-effect sensors
TDK Corporation has expanded its tool chain for the easy programming of various Micronas Hall-effect sensors with the Magnetic Sensor Programmer MSPV1.0. It replaces the APB 1.5 and complements the existing programmer line, which comprises the USB-Programming KitV1.01 and the HALAPBV5.1. These programmers are especially designed for use in the development laboratory.
Magnetic stimulation of lower spine eliminates need for catheter
More than 80% of the 250,000 Americans living with a spinal cord injury lose the ability to urinate voluntarily after their injury. According to a 2012 study, the desire to regain bladder control outranks even their wish to walk again.In a study of five men whose injuries occurred five to 13 years ago, UCLA neuroscientists stimulated the lower spinal cord through the skin with a magnetic device placed at the lumbar spine.
Magnetic gel can be used to ease pain
UCLA bioengineers have demonstrated that a gel-like material containing tiny magnetic particles could be used to manage chronic pain from disease or injury. Broadly, the study demonstrates the promising use of biomechanical forces that push and pull on cells to treat disease.
First minimal-contact full face CPAP mask: AirFit F30
ResMed has introduced its first minimal-contact full face CPAP mask, AirFit F30, the latest addition to its AirFit mask portfolio, which helps users reduce facial marks, wear glasses in bed and curl up closer to their bed partner.Unlike most traditional full face mask cushions, AirFit F30’s sits below the nasal bridge, preventing top-of-the-nose red marks and irritation, and reducing feelings of claustrophobia for some full face wearers.
DDIT designed for non-contact linear position displacement
The Measuring Division of Kaman Precision Products has announced the release of a new eddy current measurement system, the Digital Differential Impedance Transducer (DDIT). The DDIT is designed to provide a digital interface for high speed eddy current measurement systems, with resolution in the micro-inch range, at bandwidths as high as 60kHz.
