Laurence Marchini, Editor, writes:
I have to admit that I am rather partial to pork luncheon meat, and so the news that the British Government has followed the mandate from Brussels to outlaw spam came as something of a shock. (And while we're at it, how is it that words can become hijacked into new meanings? I'm sure the Flintstones were similarly concerned when their "gay old time" gained a whole new dimension.)
But back to the other sort of spam. As one whose various e-mail addresses are very widely available, I would like to think that I can comment on spam from both sides.
On the one hand, I receive anything up to 200 e-mail messages per day. Fortunately, the majority of these are still "real" messages. I have resisted the temptation to install a so-called spam filter on the grounds that I am happy to receive newsworthy material from anyone, and in that respect any level of false triggering is unacceptable.
I still maintain that the tried and trusted methods we all apply to other unwanted communications - ranging from billboards to TV and direct mail - still apply. Simply take a quick look, and if the message is irrelevant just ignore it. In many respects, spam e-mail is easier to ignore than any other unwanted message: the delete key is a wonderfully succinct and final move.
On the other hand, though, I have myself been accused of generating spam.
Fortunately, such accusations never come from the regular readers of the Electronicstalk Newsletter. Let's face it: we go to great lengths to ensure that if somebody signs up to receive the newsletter they really do want to receive it. Not only is the sign-up form very clear in its purpose, we now will not add a name to the list without a follow-up e-mail confirmation.
No, strangely such accusations tend to come from people who feel it is fine to send their news to Electronicstalk, but are not interested in reading the Newsletter. Strange folk, one may think. But fortunately, the UK's impending spam laws appear to cater for this phenomenon by specifically excluding business e-mail addresses from the legislation.
Many seem to feel that this defeats the purpose of the exercise (in much the same way that the proposed US laws aim to exclude any message with a clear "opt-out" clause). But it cannot be ignored that e-mail marketing has become a very successful medium for business-to-business communication, in much the same way that in the past we were used to receiving printed magazines, card packs, direct mail etc. (And it is a major plus that e-mail kills far fewer trees than a magazine!)
The new law comes into force in the UK on 11th December this year. It will be interesting to see how well it is enforced.
I hope you find this issue of our weekly newsletter useful. In addition to the new products, news and ideas featured here, there are hundreds more on our website and dozens more being added daily, so do take a look if you can.
Alternatively, the full stories behind all the summaries and headlines in this newsletter can be retrieved by email alone: see details below.
In the meantime, if you have any suggestions as to how we might make the site or the newsletter better, email me directly.
Best wishes

OUR TOP TEN NEW PRODUCTS SELECTION
=======================================================
1. Coverification speeds soft-core FPGA designs
Aldec has entered the embedded systems market with a hardware/software coverification platform. The new platform, CoVer, was developed for FPGA designs using soft-core microprocessors. By combining Aldec's proven HDL design entry and verification software, Active-HDL, with its new CoVer technology, both hardware and software teams are able to work in parallel on the same configuration of the design from day one.

2. Audio power amp sounds cool to integrate
The TPA2008D2 is the industry's first 5V filter-free Class-D audio power amplifier with integrated DC volume control. The new device will cut both costs and time for designers of LCD flat panel displays, LCD projection systems and powered speakers.. At full power the TPA2008D2 will drive 6W (3W x 2) into 3ohm speakers with no external heatsink, making it ideal for popular 15 to 17in LCD TVs and multifunction monitors.

3. Diamond-copper composite can keep chips cooler
Researchers at Advanced Diamond Solutions have successfully created a low-cost diamond-copper composite material called Heathru, with immediate thermal management applications for semiconductor devices with high power densities. With thermal conductivities demonstrated over twice that of copper, the material will have dramatic impacts in the microprocessor, memory/graphics, optoelectronics and power electronics industries, where power dissipation concerns are paramount.

4. Multiple FPGAs get to work on imaging development
The TS-DK-IT01 is an imaging development kit aimed at leveraging FPGA processing capabilities for high-performance imaging applications. This development kit includes the SBS Tsunami FPGA platform, infrastructure software, development environment and multiple resources for integration of CameraLink and other custom image processing applications. The SBS Tsunami, an advanced FPGA-based computing platform uses multiple FPGAs as the actual processing engine on a high-performance single board computer (SBC).

7. Packet processors master voice over IP networks
The ZL50111 family are the first packet processors capable of sending high volumes of TDM traffic - up to 32 T1/E1 streams - over IP/Ethernet networks with the same voice quality and service flexibility as conventional, TDM-based telephone networks. With the unmatched features of the three-chip, standards-compliant ZL50111 family, designers can significantly improve the performance of TDM-to-IP/Ethernet access systems, while cutting cost, size, and power consumption.

9. New package shrinks optocoupler footprint
A family of optocouplers with a new-style package from NEC is claimed to be the smallest in the world. NEC's PS29 series optocouplers are housed in a "mini-flat" package and offer considerable saving of space on the PCB, even when compared with couplers in the current "super small outline package" (SSOP) used by NEC's PS28 series. The new mini-flat package has the same 1.27mm pin-to-pin distance as an SSOP. However, the pins of the couplers in mini-flat package are bent very close to the package, saving 30% mounting space.

10. Self-calibrating oscillators set new standards
A new range of self-calibrating oven-controlled crystal oscillators (OCXOs) can outperform traditional Rubidium oscillators in many aspects. The CFPO-SC1 self-calibrating OCXO series is designed for Stratum 2 applications and provides a free-run frequency accuracy of within +/-16ppb over lifetime, with no external reference such as GPS. This development from C-MAC MicroTechnology will optimise applications that require the highest precision offered by oven controlled crystal oscillators.
