Frequency
VCO operates from 271 to 310 MHz
Crystek's CVCO55FL-0271-0310 VCO operates from 271 to 310MHz with a control voltage range of 0.5-4.5V. This VCO features a typical phase noise of -114dBc/Hz at 10KHz offset and has excellent linearity. Output power is typically +0dBm.
Clock oscillator offers low phase jitter irrespective of output
A clock oscillator that offers low phase jitter of less than 0.5ps rms, irrespective of which output is specified, has been introduced by IQD. Housed in a hermetically sealed 2.5x2.0mm ceramic six-pad package, the IQXO-931 is available in a very wide frequency range of 8MHz to 1.5GHz. The IQXO-931 is primarily designed for applications such as Ethernet, WiFi, DSL/ASDL and WiMAX/W-LAN.
VCO operates at 3650MHz with a control voltage of 0.5-4.5V
Crystek's CVCO55CC-3650-3650 VCO operates at 3650MHz with a control voltage range of 0.5-4.5V. This VCO features a typical phase noise of -108dBc/Hz at 10kHz offset and has excellent linearity. Output power is typically +7dBm.
Satelline transmits 1,000mW of power
The latest Satelline TR4 from Satel has set a new milestone. The compact UHF transceiver with transmitting power of 1,000mW is compatible with the protocols of Pacific Crest, Trimble and Satel. The type certifications in all important regions of the world make the TR4 suitable for integration in end devices that are intended for international use.
How to make the most of RFID
More robust than barcodes and with a longer range, RFID tags have been underutilised in the manufacturing world so far. However, as companies begin to see the practical benefits of the technology, RFID implementation has increased. European Automation has now created a handy bitesize guide for using RFID in a manufacturing environment.
Long-range wireless charging project commences
Researchers at the University of Leeds are taking part in a project to develop ways to wirelessly “beam” power into robots and other digital systems. The £1m SWIFT project is the first collaborative UK effort to develop systems that can simultaneously transfer information and power across wireless networks.
Create a simple PCIe clock with flexible outputs
Expanding its VersaClock 5 family, Integrated Device Technology has announced programmable clock generators that simplify the creation of PCIe clocks while providing flexible outputs. The 5P49V5907 and 5P49V5908 have three outputs that can generate any frequency up to 350MHz in various output types.
Low g-sensitivity TCXO offers superior phase noise
Appointed to represent Greenray Industries across Europe, Euroquartz has introduced the T1241 series TCXO for use in communications, instrumentation and military applications. The ultra low g-sensitivity device is designed for use in communications, instrumentation and military applications and is available in frequencies from 50 to 100MHz.
UHF RFID integration system is first certified for Europe
HARTING’s Ha-VIS Middleware has become the first system of its type to successfully fulfil the official certification process of the GS1 EPCglobal standard. This makes Ha-VIS the only European product on the market which allows UHF RFID identification to be implemented into projects in a transparent, future-proof and reliably tested way.
μPower MEMS oscillators set power, size & weight benchmarks
Endrich has announced a family of μPower MEMS oscillators as part of its its SiTime portfolio for Wearable-, IoT and mobile markets. The SiT8021 is the first product family to put an end to the restrictions of quartz technology, setting benchmarks in terms of power, size and weight.
