Agilent Technologies has announced volume availability of its 2Gbit/s small-form-pluggable (SFP) fibre-optic transceiver for Fibre Channel storage area networks (SANs).
In addition, precision optical alignment is not required, making it easy to install and ideal for high-volume assembly.
This compact mouse sensor is a drop-in replacement for the ADNS-5020-EN mouse sensor and provides customers with a convenient way of upgrading their entry-level mouse product portfolio.
The ADNS-5050 optical mouse sensor along with the ADNS-5100/5100-001 lens, ADNS-5200 clip and HLMP-ED80 LED light source form a complete and compact mouse tracking system that has no moving parts - making it very reliable and nearly maintenance free for end users.
This compact optical mouse sensor is ideal for use in optical mice, optical trackballs and integrated input devices.
The mainstream ADNS-5050 is capable of high-speed motion detection at 30in/s and acceleration up to 8g.
It also has an on-chip oscillator and built-in LED driver to minimise external components and a frame rate that can be adjusted internally for optimum performance.
The resolution of the sensor can be adjusted from 125 to 1375 counts per inch (in steps of 125) to give manufacturers the flexibility to configure their mice to meet a variety of application requirements.
ADNS-5050 optical mouse sensors are available now through Avago Technologies' direct sales channel and worldwide distribution partners. Request a free brochure from Avago Technologies ...
