RS recently announced the launch of a new circuit simulator tool for use by the 1.3 million members of the DesignSpark engineering community. The announcement coincides with the 13th anniversary of DesignSpark, which was on July 5th, 2010. In partnership with Siemens Digital Industries Software’s PartQuest Explore team, all DesignSpark members, regardless of their subscription option, will have access to the new DesignSpark Circuit Simulator tool. This browser-based tool provides a comprehensive environment for designing, modeling, simulating, and analyzing electronic and mechatronic circuits and systems.
The EL2068 digital output terminal connects the binary control signals of the automation device to the actuators at process level with electrical isolation. This EtherCAT Terminal contains eight channels, which display their signal status by means of LEDs. The integrated diagnostics can be evaluated in the controller and are indicated by the LEDs. A diagnostic bit is set for the affected channel if there is an overload. The diagnostics serve to simplify the maintenance of the application.
Integrating machines and systems into the “Internet of Things” is incredibly simple with WAGO’s IoT Box. The complete system is ready for immediate use and offers all the functions required for digitalization from signal acquisition to cloud connectivity. The IoT Box was designed as a plug-and-play device – no hardware engineering is needed. Collected data is transferred to the desired IoT application with just a few parameter settings.
Bel Fuse Inc has recently announced the expansion of the EOS Power Series with the addition of MEPG300 and MEPG500 devices, designed specifically for medical applications and based on new, efficient Gallium Nitride (GaN) technology. The MEPG300 and MEPG500 are convection-cooled units, eliminating the need for fan maintenance and removing unnecessary audible/ambient noise and vibration, which can be unsuitable for a variety of medical applications.
binder presents the 696-series Harsh-Environment Connector (HEC) for outdoor use in extreme weather, dust, humidity, contact with liquids, extreme temperatures, or vibrations. The power connector was engineered for versatile power supply in both the low- and high-voltage segments under particularly harsh conditions. Its compact design supports the supply of equipment or assemblies, such as drive units, in confined spaces.
Phoenix Contact’s newest industrial PC (IPC) combines reliable CPU operation with increased performance power. The Valueline 3 (VL3) is designed for applications in rugged environments, ensuring machine uptime in demanding conditions. The CPUs are selected from Intel’s embedded long-term roadmap, so users can be confident the CPUs will be available for seven to 15 years.
Recently, Weidmuller USA was pleased to announce new models of Photovoltaic (PV) DC Combiner Boxes designed to operate large-scale PV systems more efficiently. With the planned expansion of the Weidmuller facility in Richmond, all of these models and more renewable energy solutions will soon be produced in the USA.
CUI Devices’ Motion & Control Group recently announced the introduction of a new rotary potentiometer series offering single or dual gang models as well as dual gang options with an on-off switch. The PTN16 series is housed in a 16.5 mm package with shaft lengths of 15, 20, 25, or 30 mm and D-cut or knurled shaft styles. Ideal for control inputs for electronic circuits and audio control applications, the PTN16 models feature resistance ratings from 1 to 2000 kΩ, a rotational life of 10,000 cycles, and a variety of terminal configurations.
IDEC Corporation has recently announced the release of their new RC Series printed circuit board (PCB) relays, with features supporting a wide range of industrial-grade applications. These relays come in several low-profile configurations, provide high-capacity power switching, and perform reliably even in challenging environments.
