No need to shop - now you can build your own laptop
Build your own laptop is the opportunity now being offered by RS Components with the launch of a competitively priced pi-top kit, which offers opportunities in the maker and educational arena helping users to ‘learn, play and create’. pi-top has now scaled up production of its crowd-funded kit, enabling RS to offer it for the first time.
Mill-Max offers miniature receptacles for diverse applications
For applications requiring miniature receptacles, Mill-Max offers four diverse, off-the-shelf products which will fulfill those needs. These receptacles are suitable for use in high density configurations down to 1mm pitch. Each receptacle contains our three-finger, beryllium copper contact with a diameter range of 0.008 to 0.013”. The contact is characterized by a low insertion force making it compatible with miniature leads subject to ben...
Indium's VP of Technology to host soldering Webtorials
Dr. Lee’swebtorial,Low-Temperature Solders: New Developments and Applications, will cover varieties of low-temperature solders with emphasis on lead-free alloys, their physical, mechanical, and soldering properties, and their applications. It will take place from1-2 p.m. on May 17 and 19.
Vishay extends SMD aluminium capacitor voltage range
Vishay Intertechnology has announced that it has extended the voltage range for its automotive grade 146 CTI and 160 CLA series of surface-mount aluminium capacitors to 100 and 80V, respectively. For high-temperature automotive and industrial applications, the devices provide low impedance, high ripple current and long useful life.
Discrete and bare die IGBTs target EVs & HEVs
Expanding its growing portfolio of automotive-grade semiconductor solutions for EVs, HEVs and PHEVs, Fairchild has introduced discrete and bare die IGBTs and diodes. These IGBTs and diodes are suited for traction inverters, a core component of all EVs, HEVs and PHEVs that convert the batteries’ electricity from direct current into the three-phase alternating current required by the vehicles’ drive motors.
Rework and selective solder equipment at EPTECH Vancover
Kurtz Ersa North America announced that it will exhibit with Comtree at EPTECH Vancouver/Coquitlam, scheduled to take place Thursday, June 2, 2016 at the Hard Rock Casino Vancouver. Ersa is recognized as one of the world’s largest suppliers for rework, inspection and hand soldering equipment.
Liquid-metal particles can be used for heat-free soldering
One of the latest innovations from Martin Thuo's lab is finding a way to make micro-scale, liquid-metal particles that can be used for heat-free soldering plus the fabricating, repairing and processing of metals - all at room temperature. The discovery was recently reported online in the journal Scientific Reports. Thuo's co-authors all have Iowa State ties: Simge Cinar, a postdoctoral research associate; Ian Tevis, a former postdoctoral research...
