Digi-Key Electronics, the global electronic components distributor, announced a partnership with Analog Devices on their innovative new MeasureWare platform. The multi-sensor platform will allow Digi-Key customers to kickstart designs by providing immediate access to availability and pricing of qualifying products.
Farnell, the Development Distributor, has extended its linecard with the addition of Amphenol PIHER’s range of contactless sensors and potentiometers. These devices employ state-of-the art, hall-effect and inductive technologies to offer lower cost, high performance control and measurement solutions.
MAX77827 1.5 A buck-boost converter extends battery life and provides 81% IQ improvement compared to competitor, while enabling system stability
With the lowest quiescent current (IQ) in its class of 6 µA, as well as the highest peak efficiency of 96 percent in the market, designers can now maximize a portable device's battery life with the MAX77827 buck-boost converter from Maxim Integrated Products, Inc.. This 1.5 A high-efficiency, compact converter allows 1.8 V to 5.5 V input and 2.3 V to 5.3 V output, while providing the system stability needed to minimize abrupt or unexpected shutdowns. The MAX77827 addresses the power requirements of low-power wide-area network (LPWAN) applications, asset tracking devices and many Internet of Things (IoT) applications.
If there is one tool that is practically essential for electronic design, it is the oscilloscope. The oscilloscope makes it possible to look inside a circuit and see how it is really performing. If there are signal-integrity issues or glitches affecting the operation of the circuitry, they will most likely show up on the screen of an oscilloscope. But to ensure correct results, it is vital to ensure that the signal going into the probe is as high quality as possible. Distortions caused by poor choices over probe selection and attachment can easily mislead the engineer and you do not want to be debugging part of a design when the bug is actually an artefact of the probing rather than the design itself.
High-performance AX8000 multi-axis servo system maximizes machine throughput
SVM Automatik A/S, based in Silkeborg, Denmark, utilizes the high-performance AX8000 multi-axis servo system in the design of NESTOR, a transport machine for the pharmaceutical industry. The machine requires only microseconds to handle sterile glass containers for quality control. In addition, it can be converted extremely flexibly and quickly and is much easier to program than previous models.
There are many applications in the defense, industrial, and robotics industries that require an embedded system to use a brushless DC (BLDC) motor. While spinning a motor might seem trivial, it is it is a complex matter that can slow down a project as the developer comes up to speed on motor drive, torque, electrical characteristics, and electromagnetic properties, as well as current feedback measurements.
