Resistors meet high voltage rating applications
US-based Ohmite and UK-based ARCOL to both offer their combined ranges of high-power resistors following the acquisition of ARCOL by the HEICO group of companies. ARCOL will now sell the Ohmite Euro Series of Vitreous Enamel, fixed resistors for applications requiring high wattage ratings from 72 to 1000W.
Non-ferrous connector systems designed for medical applications
ERNI has expanded its miniature 0.8mm MicroStac SMT connector series to include anti-magnetic versions with 12-pin (single row) and 54-pin (dual row) configurations with a 5mm board-to-board stack height and a 1.5mm effective wipe length. The non-ferrous connectors are designed specifically for medical and instrumentation applications such as MRI machines, where ferrous materials can be hazardous and degrade test results.
New Soldering systems at SMT/Hybrid/Packaging
At this years SMT/Hybrid/Packaging, Asscon will present its latest range of vacuum soldering systems including the models VP800 vacuum, VP6000 and VP7000. The highlight will be the new VP7000 multi-vacuum in-line soldering system featuring dual lane transport.
Capacitors achieve supercapacitor CV values at up to +125°C
AVX announces a series of axial leaded, hermetically sealed wet electrolytic tantalum capacitors that achieve supercapacitor CV values in environments up to +125°C. Utilising high CV tantalum powders and a well-established wet tantalum design, the TWD High Temp Max Cap (HTMC) series capacitors deliver exceptional electrical and mechanical stability, achieving extended operational lifetimes of up to 10,000h at +85°C, rated voltage.
MLCCs provide reliability for electronic life support
Delivering the superior reliability performance required by electronic life support applications, AVX has announced the MQ series medical grade MLCCs. Manufactured, tested and qualified using stringent medical design, in-process and lot acceptance requirements, the medical grade MLCCs are suited for applications including: pacemakers, Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillators (ICDs) and neuromodulation devices.
Mill-Max expands its line of solder cup spring-loaded pins
Mill-Max has announced a recent addition to its spring-loaded pin selection with the introduction of the 0973-0-15-20-77-14-11-0. This offering has a solder cup designed to accept up to 20AWG wire, has a maximum stroke of 0.080” and can be used at a minimum spacing of 0.100”.
Miniature switches suit next generation portable devices
The recently released C&K PTS830 series of SMT top-actuated switches with a high actuation force of up to 450gf are now in stock at distributor Astute Electronics. They provide reliable switching for wearable electronics, portable wireless devices, remote controls and keyless entry systems.
Bespoke high-voltage power modules target laboratory equipment
Bespoke high-voltage power solutions for UK and European customers seeking to develop highly miniaturised scientific equipment, such as mass spectrometers for use in laboratories and medical centres have been introduced by Luso Electronics. Through its partnership with US-based HVM Technology, Luso already distributes standard and customised military grade high-voltage power converters and compact power supplies for night vision applications.
Solderless connectors eliminate PCB headers
A new concept in PCB connection technology has been introduced by RS Components with the introduction of the SKEDD SDC 2,5 series of solderless direct wire-to-board connectors from Phoenix Contact. SKEDD technology from Würth Elektronik, and further developed by Phoenix, uses push-in spring contacts manufactured to fit PCB hole geometries perfectly. No soldering or press fitting is needed.
Seminar to unveil new frontiers of brushless PM motor technology
Dr. Dan M. Ionel – Professor of Electrical Engineering and L. Stanley Pigman Chair in Power at the University of Kentucky – will use his seminar at CWIEME Berlin to highlight record-breaking developments in the design and materials for brushless PM machines.
