‘Power Factor Correction’

An Electronicstalk guide

Start with the news release Handheld spectrum analysers for LTE analysis from Rohde and Schwarz, which we summarised at the time by saying "Rohde and Schwarz has launched the FSH4 and FSH8 handheld spectrum analysers that provide a detailed view of long-term evolution (LTE) signals - a significant advantage when troubleshooting.". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release TMPM36x microcontrollers for embedded applications from Toshiba Electronics: "Toshiba Electronics Europe has expanded its range of high-performance 32-bit ARM Cortex-M3 microcontrollers with devices for embedded applications such as office equipment and industrial control.".
 
In February 2011, we covered the news from ZMD - take a look at ZMD offers I/O channel for automation applications which says: "ZMD has added the ZIOL2201 high-voltage I/O channel, which meets the physical layer requirements of sensor/actuator systems used in factory automation, to its line driver and level shifter I/O range.".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Interface Masters Technologies, Smart network adapters target security appliances, as well as Ultra-compact LEDs for space-critical applications from Excelsys Technologies, and Laser Components offers fibre-coupled laser diodes from Laser Components.
