SMD Flat Chip Temperature Sensors in Three Standard Chip Sizes

SMD Flat Chip Temperature Sensors in Three Standard Chip Sizes

Vishay has announced SMD flat chip temperature sensors that offer advanced thin film technology in three standard chip sizes — 0603, 0805, and 1206. The devices feature short reaction times of &#8804;5s (in air) and a temperature range from -55°C up to +155°C. Thanks to a highly controlled platinum thin film manufacturing process, these new Vishay Beyschlag flat chip sensors offer an outstanding stability of temperature characteristic of < ±0.04%, even in the long term, over a wide temperature range, allowing precise temperature measurements in automotive electronics, industrial electronics, telecommunication systems, and medical equipment.

Laser Dichroic Filters

Laser Dichroic Filters

Semrock, Inc has announced a family of filter products made with advanced Ion Beam Sputtering. The new RazorEdge Dichroic beamsplitters, which reflect a standard laser wavelength incident at 45 degrees while efficiently passing a broad band of the longer Raman-shifted wavelengths, boast an ultrasteep transition from reflection to transmission far superior to anything else on the open market. The guaranteed transition from laser line to passband in <1% of the laser wavelength (regardless of polarization) makes these new filters a perfect match to Semrock's patented and popular normal-incidence RazorEdge ultrasteep long-wave-pass filters.

Active differential 'scope probes provide 13 and 16 GHz Bandwidth

Active differential 'scope probes provide 13 and 16 GHz Bandwidth

Tektronix has announced what it says are the the world's fastest active differential probes to complement its new four-channel real-time oscilloscopes featured elsewhere in electronicspecifier. The new P7500 probing family sets industry benchmarks for bandwidth, provides superior signal fidelity with fast risetime and low circuit loading, introduces unique patent-pending TriMode measurement switching, and a new "needle nose" form factor. The new probes and oscilloscopes are part of a next generation serial data workbench (see separate release) that enables R&D engineers to debug and validate high-speed serial data circuits up to 10Gbit/s.
