PCBWay PCB Prototype Service Review
These PCBs were provided by PCBWay. Obviously I’m going to take some experiments to test these boards and take a look at advantages and disadvantages of these PCBs...
Perfect Current-Control for High-Power Stepper Motors
TRINAMIC Motion Control announces the arrival of the new high-performance stepper motor driver TMC2160. Combined with powerful external MOSFET driver stages, the versatile chip covers a wide spectrum of applications...
NVE Introduces the World's First Smart TMR Magnetometer
NVE Corporation announced the new SM324-10E Smart Magnetometer. The new sensor combines a unique Tunneling Magnetoresistance (TMR) sensor element with sophisticated digital signal processing...
Current-mode instrumentation amplifier enhances piezoelectric accelerometer
A typical piezoelectric sensor comprises a disk of PZT-5A ceramic material with metallized electrodes on its surfaces. Applying electrically conductive epoxy to the electrodes connects external wiring to the sensor. An insulating adhesive attaches the assembly to the structure under test and isolates the sensor from ground-referenced potentials...
Vishay Intertechnology 100 V and 120 V TMBS® Rectifiers Offer Forward Voltage Drop Down to 0.36 V to Reduce Power Losses and Increase Efficiency
Vishay Intertechnology introduced four new 100 V and 120 V TMBS® Trench MOS Barrier Schottky rectifiers that provide up to 20 mV lower forward voltage than previous-generation devices...
Fast PWM DAC has no ripple
The enduring simplicity of PWM DACs will always earn them a place in the designer’s cookbook, but slow response time and the problem of PWM ripple tend to limit their appeal and utility. The usual way of attenuating PWM ripple, an RC low pass filter, can never succeed in completely eliminating it, and only makes output settling time agonizingly slow if you try...
Highest-precision reinforced isolated amplifier enables longest lifetimes in industrial voltage-sensing applications
Texas Instruments introduced a new reinforced isolated amplifier that features the industry's highest precision and working voltages, and longest lifetime reliability. With exceptional performance that includes better nonlinearity, lower offset and gain error, and higher temperature stability...
