Realizing the potential of 5G: the critical role of connectors
Contributed by Paul Pulkowski, Marketing Manager; Maciek Czerwinski, Director of Sales and Business Development; and Rick Lopez, Sales Engineer and Project Manager, binder USA The potential of 5G connectivity is nearly limitless with statistics that are difficult to imagine. Analysts predict that worldwide 5G connections will double in 2022 to 1.34 billion, and grow to […]
Why and how are medical connectors and standards different?
Medical connectors are different because medical applications are different. Medical systems require high reliability like industrial systems, but they have unique challenges where failure or unreliable operation can be life-threatening. A few examples include: Materials qualified for medical connectors are often specified to prevent bacteria growth and ensure that the connection system withstands sterilization or […]
Miniaturized open frame power supplies optimized for medical and industrial apps
Murata announced the expansion of its PQ line which is comprised of open frame AC/DC converters. The PQU1000 series was designed for industrial and medical applications requiring a high level of safety. The line meets IEC62368-1 and EN60601-1 third edition standards for industrial and healthcare applications. Given that, it is suitable for Body Floating (BF) […]
New backshells give EMI/RFI protection to horizontal Gecko connectors
Harwin has introduced horizontal backshells for its Gecko-Screw-Lok (Gecko-SL) series of lightweight, high-reliability (Hi-Rel) connectors. These backshells ensure a fully EMI/RFI shielded connection for horizontal 1.25-mm pitch board-to-cable connections. Previously Gecko EMI/RFI shielding was only available on vertical board-to-cable orientations. This new development will be of real value to applications requiring EMI/RFI protection, but where […]
Linear power supplies feature custom capabilities
As other manufacturers de-emphasize or even phase out linear power supplies, Daburn Electronics’ Polytron Devices division is building on the legacy of its P3 and P5 Series low-noise, precision linear power supplies by expanding its customization capabilities for a wide range of applications. Polytron Devices is well-known for low-noise linear power supplies and can satisfy […]
