Sussex-based Servomex has launched a sensor that measures ammonia in industrial processes. Built around a tuneable laser diode, ‘Laser 3 Plus Environmental’ is a two-part device that beams and receives a laser that passes though process gas – across the exhaust vent, for example. It is used as the sensor in industrial processes – specifically the ...

Allegro MicroSystems has released two automotive magnetic sensors, one for crankshafts and one for camshafts, both using the giant magnetoresistance (GMR) effect. Although both come in a simple three-pin single in-line package, they are sophisticated digital processing ICs, and system-in-packages as they also incorporate a bias magnet and EMC protection components. Crankshaft The ATS16951 crankshaft sensor ...

Rohde & Schwarz has revealed a RF amplifier that can work across 380MHz to 6GHz, delivering up to 180W. The all-new BBA300-CDE “provides a single amplifier that eliminates the need to switch instruments or bands during a test,” according to R&S. A second model, BBA300-DE, operates from 1GHz to 6GHz. There are also 15, 25 ...

U-blox has created an indoor positioning antenna for Bluetooth, designed to be built into end-user products. Bluetooth indoor positioning uses the angle-of-arrival of a signal to at several fixed points in a room. The signal is emitted by the mobile entity to be tracked – a Bluetooth tag, for example. Location is measured to sub-metre accuracy ...

Alpha and Omega Semiconductor is aiming at servers with a pair of 600V super-junction mosfets in 8 x 8 x 0.9mm DFN8x8 packaging, with a Kelvin source. AONV110A60 has 110mΩ on-resistance, and AONV140A60 has 140mΩ. “Years ago, we could hardly imagine high voltage DFN8x8 devices widely adopted for server systems above 400W. People used packages such as TO-220(F) ...

Menlo Micro has released another MEMS electro-mechanical relay, this time a single-pole four-throw (SP4T) dc-18GHz switch. MM5120 will handle 25W (150W pulsed), according to the company, though its 5.2 x 4.2mm LGA package. Insertion loss is typically <0.6dB at 12GHz. IP3 linearity is said to be >95dBm. Contact movement is though electrostatic attraction, with the necessary ...
