LAPP Cables help T5 to be ready for take-off
Heathrow’s Terminal 5 opened to passengers on 27th March, 2008. A £4.3bn project, T5 will serve around 30 million passengers a year and is comprised of a core terminal building connected to two satellites.
Lighter Circular Connectors from ITT Interconnect Solutions
ITT Interconnect Solutions has shrunk the size and reduced the weight of its circular interconnection components, while still maintaining their reliability and performance in tough environments. The new, compact Trinity MKJ connectors are better prepared to deal with the demands of high-end system designs, such as those used in medical, military, space and industrial scenarios.
Vishay Introduces Industry’s First ESCC-4001/023-Qualified, R-Failure-Rate, Thin Film Wraparound Chip Resistors With TCR Down to 10 ppm/°C and Tolerances to 0.05 %
Vishay introduced a new series of ESCC-4001/023-qualified, R-failure-rate, thin film wraparound chip resistors. The PFRR resistors are the industry’s first such devices to offer TCR down to 10 ppm/°C and tolerances to 0.05 %.
Tiny LNAs improve GPS receive sensitivity over discrete or integrated receive solutions
Maxim has introduced the MAX2657 and MAX2658, which are two tiny, battery-sipping LNAs (low-noise amplifiers) designed for GPS-enabled applications operating in the 1575MHz band. Maxim merges its innovative SiGe BiCMOS process technology and WLP (wafer-level packaging) expertise in these devices, and they improve the performance of GPS receive sensitivity with an ultra-low 0.8dB noise figure. This sensitivity is an improvement over both discrete ...
