Delvitech is proud to announce and show a new generation of Automated Optical Inspection systems for the electronic and mechanical manufacturing. Electronic assembly process is moving towards more and more hidden complexity. Varied shaped parts increasing difficulties related to shadows, large components with small pins, high components with short pins, continuous changeover in production due to parts availability, mix of ...

With the Raspberry Pi Pico in mind, UK company OpenLX SP has answered the question: ‘how do I temporarily mount a castellated solder-down PCB module?’. The answer is a connector dubbed Clipzin, which is used in pairs to create a socket for the un-modified castellated module. However, although the connectors are surface mount, they will not mount directly onto the ...

Stackpole has extended its CSRF2817 range of surface-mount foil-on-ceramic resistors up to 100mΩ – it continues to reach down to 3mΩ. “For devices that need somewhat higher resistance values, high current handling, low temperature coefficient and high stability, finding cost effective solutions can be challenging,” according to the company. “Film type resistors will not have high current handling, and all ...

C&K has added gold-plated contact versions to three of its miniature slide switch families for enhanced environmental protection, and enhanced switching for low-energy circuits. “Whether end-products are exposed to damp air or sulphide-containing environments, gold plating decreases the potential risk of electrical short circuits due to the age of plating with dendrite growth caused by silver migration. In addition, the ...

Schurter has introduced a through-hole fuse holder specifically designed to be compatible with reflow soldering. It is branding this as ‘THR’ for ‘through-hole reflow’. “Highly integrated electronic circuits are almost exclusively assembled with surfact-mount components and soldered in a reflow oven, however, it is sometimes necessary to include through-hole components on the circuit board,” according to the company. “THR components ...

Nexperia has released 20V and 30V mosfets in DFN0603-3 (SOT8013), “the smallest DFN package”, it said. The company already offers ESD protection devices in the 0.63 x 0.33 x 0.25mm package. “Next generation wearable and hearable devices are creating several challenges for product designers,” it said. “Firstly, available board space is at a premium as functionality is added, plus heat ...

Saki Corporation has announced a series of high-speed 3D automated optical inspection systems for PCBs with a combination of very small and tall components. Called the 3Di series, its newly-developed camera system can simultaneously inspect parts in 008004 packages (metric 0201, ~200 x 100μm) and 25mm tall parts. The first 3Di machine will debut on 15-17 June at JISSO PROTEC ...

Stackpole Electronics is aiming at consumer and industrial electronic devices with a surface-mount 3.5W current-sensing resistor. Called CSRT2512-UP, it comes in a 2512 case size – 6.3 x 3.2 x 0.7mm. “The AEC-Q200 compliant CSRT2512-UP has unique thin film material properties and processing to provide higher continuous power ratings and higher pulse power ratings than other thin film chip resistors,” according to ...

Nexperia’s CFP15B clip-bond surface-mount power package has passed automotive board-level reliability (BLR) testing by a “leading”, said the company, tier-1 supplier. Initially, it will be used in an engine control unit. “BLR verification is an important milestone,” said Nexperia product manager Guido Söhrn. “CFP15B represents the latest generation of thermally-enhanced thin surface-mount devices. Its versatility and reliability make it the ...

Vishay has extended its NCW AT family of thin-film chip resistors with 0612 case size devices rated at 1W for power electronics in automotive and industrial applications. They are ‘wide-terminal’ resistors – with the solder terminals on opposing long edges, rather than on the short edges as is more common. Beyschlag NCW 0612 AT components combine temperature performance, stability and resistance values ...
