Weald Electronics has a family of heavy-duty circular connectors designed for use in harsh or hazardous environments where high resistance to vibration and the ingress of liquids is required. Built around a heavy duty brass shell, LMG brass circular connectors are environmentally sealed from IP67 to IP69K and can come as standard with between two and 26 contacts in 19 ...

The Han HMC industrial connector series from Harting combines the capability for more than 10,000 mating cycles with protection against harsh environmental conditions. Designed for use in the medical and test engineering sectors, the series consists of Han B HMC housings, Han HMC connector inserts with crimp connection in four different versions, Han HMC crimp contacts in two sizes, a ...

Linear Technology has introduced a 45V LDO that indicates over-load and low-load (open circuit), die temperature and allows an associated microcontroller to calculate power dissipation in both the regulator and the load. Called LT3055, the basic specs are 2-45V in, 0.6-40V at up to 500mA out, and 350mV drop-out at max current. “A single capacitor at the REF/BYP pin provides ...
