HAWKER RICHARDSON      Stand B32

NEW GENERATION MANTIS MICROSCOPE

See this award-winning inspection solution in action. With three different variations, the Mantis PIXO, Mantis ERGO, and Mantis IOTA deliver high-quality 3D images, and in an easy-to-use ergonomic design.

ERGONOMIC DESIGN FOR COMFORT AND PRODUCTIVITY

You can wear glasses! Unlike so many other binocular microscopes, the Mantis has been designed with an eyepiece-less viewer so you can wear prescription glasses. As you don't have to align your eyes precisely, you can view your subject while moving your head.

The Mantis also provides long working distances under lenses so you can do rework while looking at your subject under magnification thereby improving efficiency.

THE STEREO MICROSCOPE FOR PERFORMANCE

Completely new models from the Mantis Classic range, the new generation offers 5-way illumination for maximum control over lighting your subject to achieve shadow-free inspection. The field of view is also 10% larger for far better control over your movements when working under the system.

PIXO and ERGO have a 3-lens turret so you can scroll through magnifications easily increasing productivity with magnification up to 15x. The integrated high-definition 5 MP camera on the PIXO delivers superior image quality and greater colour reproduction. With the video and image capture software feature, users can also record, review, and share resources for traceability, collaboration, and training.

All models accommodate the two new stands; the Stabila offers a long range of improved focus travel from 55mm focus to 150mm while the Verso arm has an increased max reach over the previous models, now being 755mm.

MANTIS FOR PCB WORK

The Mantis is perfect for high-value, performance-critical micro-PCB work where you need to solder components onto a baseboard. You can set up Mantis to get the maximum amount of space for
tools without losing image quality.

To take full advantage of the long working distance the best set-up is a PIXO or ERGO Mantis head with the multi-turret lens fixture to allow for quick change of magnification.

The PIXO and ERGO offer White/UV illumination for applications such as conformal coating validation on printed circuit boards to ensure even coverage. Users can easily change from one light to another to view the coating itself.

Improved hand-eye coordination and lower operator fatigue make tasks such as soldering, PCB inspection and rework easy for extended periods.

Check out the Mantis PIXO with the integrated digital camera and Stabila stand and the compact Mantis IOTA with the Verso arm at the Hawker Richardson stand.

CONGATEC LAUNCHES NEW PRODUCT FAMILY Aready.com

congatec – a leading provider of embedded and edge computing technology – launches new product family aReady.COM, the first key stage of its innovative aReady. strategy, which offers significantly smoother implementation of embedded and edge computing technology with the assistance of high-performance embedded building blocks, ranging from Computer-on-Modules (COM) to cloud. congatec’s new aReady.COMs integrate application-ready hypervisor, operating system and IIoT software configurations that customers can put together according to their individual requirements. Developers can boot these individually configured aReady.COMs straight away and then install their applications. This means that the complexity of the integration work below the application layers and for the diverse IIoT functionalities of an embedded and edge computing system is reduced to a minimum. The first aReady.COMs are available with the ctrlX OS from Bosch Rexroth. More aReady. products are to follow.
For customers, aReady.COMs mean that they can count on computer-on-modules in a function-validated complete package, the application-readiness of which extends to the virtualisation, OS, and software layer, to which OEMs can seamlessly connect their applications. aReady.COMs decouple system development from application development to the highest degree, resulting in significantly faster time-to-market because OEMs can focus completely on application development.

THE NEW PLUG AND PLAY BUNDLES SIMPLIFY THE SET UP OF VIRTUALIZED REAL-TIME IIoT PLATFORMS

congatec includes the Hypervisor in all of its new x86 COMs. The Hypervisor is available as an easy addition to congatec’s x86-based Computers-on-Modules (COMs). Now the Hypervisor will be implemented in firmware and will be standard on all congatec x86 COMs, automatically lowering the barrier to start working on system consolidation. By simplifying real-time virtualization for system consolidation, congatec is making it easy to save costs; reduce system count; and reduce size, weight, and power consumption (SWaP).
The Hypervisor enables developers to run multiple operating systems (OS) simultaneously on one single COM. Every OS is assigned to run on its own core or set of cores and I/Os (such as PCIe, Ethernet, USB), so that each OS can run entirely independently from each other. Booting or suspending the operation of any OS will have no effect on any other. With the Hypervisor, customers get a software and hardware package already qualified to support real-time applications, as the real-time behavior of the modules has already been verified

PENDULUM INSTRUMENTS UNVEILS DUAL-CHANNEL FREQUENCY COUNTER/ANALYZER FOR BUDGET SENSITIVE APPLICATIONS
Stockholm March 6th, 2022. Pendulum Instruments, a global expert in time and frequency measurement, analysis, and calibration, today announced the new CNT-102 dual-channel Frequency Analyzer.

Expanding Pendulum’s Multi-channel Frequency Analyzer (MFA) family, the CNT-102 is the world’s first dual-channel instrument supporting parallel and independent time/frequency measurements in a bench-top format. Several key capabilities have been inherited from the award-winning CNT-104S 4-channel MFA, including simultaneous and gap-free Frequency, Period, Time Interval Error, Pulse Width, Rise/Fall time, Slew Rate, Totalize and Voltage measurements. Standard frequency range is up to 400 MHz and an optional RF input extends bandwidth up to 24 GHz.

The new multi-channel design enables a multitude of new test applications, most notably parallel frequency measurements of two different test objects, or the comparison of pulse parameters between two parallel test points, without having to swap over test leads. Critical measurements which previously not possible using traditional single-channel UFCs (Universal Frequency Counters), have now been liberated by the new CNT-102 design.

The CNT-102 also sets a new price/performance benchmark in the industry, with impressive 14ps time resolution, up to 13 digits/s frequency resolution, and 1 million measurements/s at prices starting around $5k. A large, color touch screen and intuitive graphic user interface display results in both numeric and graphic formats, along with modulation/trend and value distribution graphs. Advanced analysis enables smoothing of data and zooming functions with cursor read-outs of individual samples.

“We have successfully delivered tens of thousands of CNT-90 series counter/analyzers to discerning customers worldwide, and during this 20-year period we have noted an increased demand for parallel measurements,” said Harald Kruger, CEO of Pendulum Instruments. “The launch of the CNT-104S in late 2022, introduced the world’s first 4-channel Frequency Analyzer, which was well received by our high-end metrology, defense, and R&D customers. The new CNT-102 builds on that success but offers a dual channel version at a more affordable price point, so customers can choose between either 2- or 4-channel models to fit their price or performance requirement” he continued.

Multi-channel Frequency Analyzers are a perfect solution for many test systems requiring multiple frequency counters such as oscillator manufacturing, since a single CNT-102 can replace two traditional counters in a test rack, resulting in both space and cost saving.

ABOUT PENDULUM INSTRUMENTS:
Pendulum Instruments is a world leading supplier of test & measurement solutions for measurements, analysis, and calibration of time and frequency with 60 years’ experience. Latest company acquisitions in 2020 include Detectus AB, experts in EMC-Scanning, and FLC Electronics AB, experts in High-Voltage Linear Amplifiers.
Pendulum Instruments has offices in Sweden, Poland, USA, and China, and has a global distribution network with approx. 100 distributors and sales representatives world-wide.

DETECT EMC PROBLEMS BEFORE THE TEST DOES WITH DETECTUS EMC SCANNER
The Pendulum/Detectus SCN-500 series of EMC-Scanners are powerful and affordable pre-compliance tools for measurement and analysis of Electro-Magnetic Interference as well as patented Immunity Testing capability with key advantages over more basic spectrum analyser scans.
The SCN-series feature repetitive high-resolution 4D scanning of radiation (3D movement plus rotation of the probe head), down to 100 μm steps, and up to 10 GHz frequency range, with powerful scanning software for visualisation and documentation.
Using the EMC-Scanner during early stages of R&D it enables you to detect potential emission problems before they become integrated into the product and expensive to correct. A failed test at a test house, will tell you which frequency failed, not the location of the noise source.
The EMC-Scanner can help you locate the source, and repeated measurements while redesigning your product helps you lower the emission levels. In QA applications, you can make measurements on samples from the production line and easily compare them with a gold standard design or production reference.

For even more complex EV testing, you could even utilized our wireless measuring unit, LR8450-01, to reduce complex wiring and minimize loss of data.

PW8001 POWER ANALYSER VERSION 2.0

We have newly equipped a powerful analytical feature, “Power Spectrum Analysis” for high-frequency power loss analysis!

Hioki, which has revolutionized high-frequency power measurement with its automatic phase shift function for current sensors, now brings a paradigm shift to the world of power analysis with Power Spectrum Analysis and whole array of new/improved features.

As use of SiC and GaN power semiconductors leads to higher switching frequencies, reducing power loss in the high-frequency domain is becoming an issue in development.

By allowing high-frequency power to be intuitively and quantitatively assessed in ways that would be impossible with conventional harmonic analysis, the PW8001 can play a useful role in optimization of inverter control design and in motor magnetic design.

Harmonic analysis is not a sufficient tool for reviewing the power-harmonic distribution of both the motor and inverter—the PSA solves this issue.

Using the PW8001 Power Spectrum Analysis (PSA) function you can accurately assess active power frequency distribution across a wide band.

Using PSA to accurately assess loss factors in power conversion, is a perfect match for developing inverter control and evaluating magnetic materials used in motors and other devices.

HIGH-PERFORMANCE SILICON CARBIDE (SiC) SCHOTTKY DIODES FROM QUEENSLAND

Griffith University and Queensland Semiconductor Technology Pty Ltd (Questsemi), supported by Semefab Scotland and the Innovative Manufacturing CRC (IMCRC) are manufacturing high-performance silicon carbide (SiC) Schottky diodes, a key element in many power conversion systems.
Due to their incredible thermal conductivity, high switching performance and efficiency, they are like solar inverters, motor drives, electric vehicle (EV) chargers and uninterruptible power supplies.
Using SiC wafers, researchers at the Qld Microtechnology Facility (QMF) of Qld Micro and Nanotechnology Centre (QMNC) at Griffith University have developed a new technology that allows for more efficient and low-cost fabrication of SiC diodes.
As part of the research project, a pilot production facility will be set up at QMF to support the commercialisation of the technology. Devices necessary for the initial commercial product supply will be manufactured there.
Professor Sima Dimitrjev, who leads the research team, says the development and pilot manufacture of SiC diodes at QMF is an excellent example of advanced manufacturing collaboration.
“We are working with local manufacturers, which enables Questsemi not only to fact-tract commercialisation but also to design and manufacturer semiconductor devices that meet local demand for applications such as EV battery chargers, drones, solar inverters, industrial motor drives and high-frequency power converters,” Professor Dimitrijev said.
“Manufacturing Sic diodes is complex and generally associated with high capital investment,” David Fletcher, Director of Questsemi, explained.
“Unlike other SiC diodes manufacturing processes, the technology developed by Griffith researchers uses steps that are common to standard silicon wafer processing and thus dramatically simplifies the manufacturing process and associated costs.”
“With the funding support of IMCRC, we are to trial production and accelerate the commercialisation of the new SiC technology, which is set to improve the overall cost of semiconductor devices used in energy-efficient technologies,” he said.
The insights and advancements made throughout the project will hel Questsemi transition to volume manufacture of SiC Schottky diodes localy and overseas.
IMCRFC Innovation Manufacturing Manager Dr Matthew Young said Questsemi’s collaboration with Griffith University demonstrates what is possible when a business research partnership sets out to push technological boundaries to solve unmet industry needs.
“SiC Schottky diodes play an important role in the semiconductor value chain, a sector often described as a global engine for technology, economic and social progress,” he said.
“Questsemi and Griffith Univesity’s SiC technology will have a flow-on effect in the design, prototyping and fabrication of other semiconductor devices, creating new business opportunities for Australia.”
“With IMCRC active funding we are to fast track the commercial translation of this semiconductor research into next-generation energy efficient technologies.”
Professor Nam-Trung Nguyen, Director of QMNC at Griffith University said. “We have a strategic line-up of projects from fundamental research to commercial development that ensures rapid transfer of technologies developed at our centre to industry partners.”

WURTH ELEKTRONIK INTRODUCES ITS SERIES OF MEMS HUMIDITY SENSOR CAPACITORS
Small, Economical and Very Precise
Waldenburg (Germany), January 24, 2024 – Würth Elektronik is launching a very compact, cost-effective digital humidity sensor in the WSEN-HIDS series. The MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical System) sensor measures with a precision of ±1.8% RH in the 20 - 80 percent relative humidity range. The DFN (Dual Flat No Leads) package for SMT assembly measures just 1.5 x 1.5 x 0.5 mm. The sensor works with a current of only 0.4 µA and can be operated with a power supply between 1.08 and 3.6 V. So it is ideally suited for distributed IoT sensor networks, such as those in smart farming applications.
The humidity sensor from Würth Elektronik uses a dielectric polymer that interacts with water molecules to adjust the permeability of the capacitor structure depending on the relative humidity of the surroundings. A temperature sensor is also included. Using the integrated analog-digital converter, the momentary temperature as well as the humidity information can be transmitted as 16-bit measurement data directly to conventional microcontrollers via an I²C interface. The heater (also included) with three selectable heating levels can be switched on temporarily as required, so the sensor works effectively even under demanding ambient conditions and the measurement is not falsified by condensation.
The Würth Elektronik humidity sensor is extremely versatile – from air conditioning equipment to data loggers in the food industry, to smart buildings, vertical farming, and other applications that require precise environmental control. It is now available from stock in any quantities. To support rapid prototyping, the sensor is part of the FeatherWing sensor and the IoT Development Kit from Würth Elektronik.
