Description A multiplatform vector drawing program with a complete library of electronic symbols. Schematics and drawings are stored in a very compact text format. There is no netlist concept behind the drawings (so no simulation here, sorry!) but this allows a great graphical flexibility and ease of use, making FidoCadJ the perfect tool for exchange […]

Series NAC3 from company Neutrik represents robust 3-pole connectors providing fast and secure connections up to 20A/250V AC. Company Neutrik belongs to world leaders in the field of audio, video, power-supply and other connectors

Here is a PDF document from Linear Technology, featuring current sense circuits for different applications, including High side, low side, level shifting, high and low voltage, fault sensing, etc: [ via ] Sensing and/or controlling current flow is a fundamental requirement in many electronics systems, and the techniques to do so are as diverse as the applications them-selves. This Application Note compiles solutions to current sensing problems and organizes the solutions by general application type

bonybrown.blogspot.gr writes: SMD solder paste stencils are used to accurately “print” a thin layer of solder paste onto a PCB on which the components are placed before reflow soldering. The “printing” is done in a method similar to screen printing, where the solder paste is squeegeed through a 4 mil thick, stainless steel stencil onto the PCB

Re:load is an adjustable constant current load with the following properties: No external power supply required – powered by the device under test Wide range of input voltages, from 3.3 volts to 32 volts Adjustable load from 0 to 3.5 amps Up to 14 watts power dissipation (with design heatsink) Virtually indestructable: The power FET, BTS117, has built in overtemp, ESD, and overcurrent protection Load remains constant under different input voltages – 40 milliamp variation over input voltage range Screw terminal and banana plug footprints Low BoM cost, and easy to solder thru-hole parts Test points for reading current with a voltmeter A simple, flexible adjustable dummy load – [ Link ] DIY Constant Current Dummy Load Simple analog programmable load Programmable dummy load ELV Dummy Load for Power Supply Testing Another OverLoad review

Intel Corporation announced a collaboration with Facebook to define the next generation of rack technologies used to power the world’s largest data centers. As part of the collaboration, the companies also unveiled a mechanical prototype built by Quanta Computer that includes Intel’s new, innovative photonic rack architecture to show the total cost, design and reliability improvement potential of a disaggregated rack environment.

An interesting story on New Scientist involves the use of LED technology at the Boston Museum of Science, to provide location-specific information to visitors… Hal Hodson writes: I’m experiencing ByteLight, a new type of location technology which uses LED lights to deliver exact location information indoors.

After the recently introduced 1A diode SKL14, we introduce you the 3A type in the same miniature PowerSOD-123T package. New Schottky diode SKL34 features almost the same possibilities of usage like SKL14, which was recently introduced in our article: SKL14 – 1A Schottky diode will fit everywhere
