Product Guide for AEC-Q200 Compliant Power Choke Coils
Panasonic’s ETQ-PM Series Metal Composite Type Power Choke Coils are suited for filter, step-down and step-up circuits for DC/DC converters. They are AEC-Q200 Compliant offering reliability when exposed to high temperatures along with a high tolerance to vibration.
Increasing Load Capacity in 6-Pin Type PhotoMOS® Relays
PhotoMOS® Optically-Isolated Relays are quite different from standard electromechanical relays and have a variety of applications including test and measurement equipment, industrial control, and security.
Thermal Electromotive Force (EMF)
Over the years, test and measurement companies have sought for a feature in relays that provides an accurate reading at low current. This is important because at very low current, there is a tendency for inaccurate measurements to occur, thus causing false readings. This feature is referred to as Thermal Electromotive Force (EMF), and is found in a few Relays.
Measurement Sensors: Specular vs Diffuse
Have you ever wondered why some Measurement Sensors can only be used on dull surfaces (e.g. thread depth measurement on a tire), or only on shiny surfaces (e.g. thickness measurement of glass)? In order to fully grasp the concept, some basics about reflection must be covered. Let’s get some background information on reflection.
Temperature Controllers Using Hysteresis
A temperature controller is a device that one can employ to provide a consistent temperature in their process. Panasonic Temperature Controllers have a PID function to calculate an appropriate counter response to fluctuations in the process.
Measuring Pick Up & Drop Out Voltage Of Relays
One common electrical characteristic that is specified of Relays is the pick-up and drop out voltage. These values are defined as follows:
