An Electronicstalk guide
Start with the news release I/O module suited for industrial automation market from Diamond Systems, which we summarised at the time by saying "Diamond Systems' Opal-MM-1616 PC/104 I/O module is suited for the industrial automation, transportation, energy, instrumentation, aerospace, military and medical markets. ". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Relay output boards for switching and control from United Electronic Industries: "United Electronic Industries has released of the DNx-DIO-4x2 series 12-channel electromechanical relay output boards for its Cube and Racktangle I/O chassis.".
In May 2010, we covered the news from CWAV - take a look at USBee Protolyzer for electronic design prototyping which says: "CWAV has released the USBee Protolyzer, a dynamically configurable electronic prototyping platform with a range of analogue and digital test equipment in a single PC-connected device.".
Take a look also at the news release from C and K Components, C and K Components offers low-profile DIP switches, as well as C and K develops sub-miniature detect switches from C and K Components, and Peregrine releases single-pole double-throw switch from Peregrine Semiconductor.
