Fast gigabit Ethernet switches optimized for industrial applications
The LÜTZE unmanaged E-CO (Ethernet Compact) switches with 5, 8, or 16 ports are suitable for universal network communication in all conventional Ethernet environments and field bus systems, such as ProfiNet-IO or EtherCAT. In addition to the enhanced performance with QoS (Quality of Services), auto-negotiation, auto crossing and an error message for the redundant power […]
Single-chip, IEEE-based ethernet switches offer robust TSN feature set
With the support of Time Sensitive Networking (TSN), Ethernet is eliminating the need for separate Information Technology (IT) and Operational Technology (OT) networks, providing a more ubiquitous approach to synchronization and precision timing for today’s industrial automation systems. However, to accomplish this, the use of multi-chip proprietary solutions has often been required, increasing both complexity […]
Eval kit helps wring out single-pair high-speed digital subscriber line apps
With the SHDSL standard, data can be transmitted over extremely long copper cables. This makes this technology the first choice in applications where Power over Ethernet and DSL technologies like G.FAST, VDSL are not possible. With its SHDSL Evaluation Kit, Würth Elektronik now offers developers the possibility to test applications with the SHDSL transceiver from Intel. […]
Dev kit simplifies development of 3D machine control and guidance systems
ACEINNA announced the general market availability of ACEINNA OpenRTK330LI EVK, a complete evaluation, and a development kit for the OpenRTK330LI GNSS/INS module. The OpenRTK330LI EVK accelerates development and reduces time to market of custom navigation and guidance systems fusing inertial measurements and multi-band RTK/GNSS positioning. The OpenIMU330LI Module is a very compact, low cost, state-of-the-art, […]
Open standard module release defines postage-stamp-sized computer PCBs
SGET e.V. announces release 1.0 of the new OSM Computer-on-Module standard. OSM, which is short for Open Standard Module, defines one of the first standards for directly solderable and scalable embedded computer modules. It also marks a new milestone in the miniaturization of modular COM/carrier designs, replacing credit card-sized modules with postage-stamp-sized ones. The new […]
mGig PHY chips boast low power consumption, exceed IEEE cable reach requirements
Marvell introduced its second-generation Alaska Octal Scalable mGig PHY family, bringing industry-leading performance, cable reach, low power, and speed to enterprise networking infrastructure. The mGig PHYs are the newest additions to Marvell’s borderless enterprise portfolio, a comprehensive set of Prestera switches, and Alaska PHYs architected to address the specific requirements as emerging mobility and cloud applications […]
Fiber-optic transceiver integrates 100 Mb/sec optical port in one component
KDPOF presents the brand new integrated Fiber Optic Transceiver (FOT) KD7051. It is the first device for optical in-vehicle connectivity that incorporates the transceiver IC, optoelectronics, and optics. The integrated FOT is a 100 Mb/s optical port in one single component. KDPOF’s new KD7051 thus substantially reduces the overall expense compared to STP (shielded twisted […]
COM-HPC carrier board includes interfaces for programming, firmware flashing, reset
Congatec introduces the first carrier board and cooling solutions building the foundation of the new ecosystem for the brand new PICMG COM-HPC standard. They are a major milestone for the COM-HPC integration and have been created to accelerate the utilization of congatec’s COM-HPC modules based on the latest 11th Gen Intel Core processors (code name […]
