Thunderline-Z has posted two new useful engineering tools on its website

The first tool is an advanced search engine of the company's entire database of previously designed feedthroughs. This tool allows users to search over 2000 models of RF/50ohm, DC and capacitor/filter feedthroughs to find the model that most closely resembles their application. Users can enter as much, or as little, information about their feedthrough requirements to obtain either a broad choice of options, or a specific model that fits their needs.

Search criteria include: feedthrough function, body and pin diameters and pin tip type.

After selecting a specific model, the tool will also generate an automatic online datasheet for that model that will display complete mechanical, electrical, and environmental specifications.

Users are also given a complete list of pin tip options with which to modify any model.

The second tool offered is a new impedance reference calculator.

This tool allows engineers to calculate the opposing dimension of glass to pin, or pin to glass, that will achieve optimal impedance in their package.

Users simply enter their known glass or pin diameter, enter their desired impedance, and choose a desired dielectric of either 4.1, 4.9.

or 6.65.

The tool then instantly displays the optimal glass or pin diameter that will achieve their desired impedance.
