Internet of Things (IoT)

Panasonic develops wireless modules based on the latest technology standards and invests abundant resources to adapt to new wireless connectivity standards. Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) was introduced to support wireless connectivity products designed for low-power operation, while Bluetooth 5.x features improvements from the legacy Bluetooth standards. Panasonic also provides Wi-Fi modules that meet the latest technology demands, including 802.11ac (Wi-Fi 5) and 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6).

Panasonic’s industry-leading Tough Contact construction offers the opportunity to design very durable Connectors for extremely tough and rugged applications, even applications that need to satisfy extreme environmental conditions. Able to withstand physical impact, Tough Contact Connectors are resistant to dust, dirt, and solder flux, and are resistant against corrosive gases.

Present-day digital thermostats have evolved into smart, connected thermostats that are becoming more cost-effective as well as easier to use. With an upgrade in power, size and cost, designers can implement PhotoMOS® technology rather than the previous designs that relied on electromechanical relays.

A latching relay is an electromechanical switch commonly selected when the operator must control (either switch off or amplify) a large amount of current flow. It will remain in the last position it was when last powered, whereas a non-latching relay will return to its typical position. While latching and non-latching relays share many similarities in design and function, their significant differences allow each type to be more suitable for separate applications.

Choosing the right PIR Sensor based on application requirements may not always be so simple. PIR Sensors suitable for low power applications require a low current consumption, whereas PIR Sensors for line power applications would need a standard current consumption. Learn more about PIR Sensors' operating principle, current consumption, output, and lens options available from Panasonic.
