An Electronicstalk guide
Start with the news release
LED drivers optimised for high-powered lighting from
Powerpax, which we summarised at the time by saying "The Powerpax Paxdim range of mains-dimmable LED drivers are optimised for use with all good quality, high-powered LED products such as Luxeon, Cree, Seoul, Nichia and Osram. ".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Inertial introduces solid-state magnetometers from
Inertial Aerosystems: "Inertial Aerosystems is offering the HMR 2300 and HMR2300r, two inexpensive and reliable microprocessor-based magnetometers from Honeywell.".
In March 2010, we covered the news from Adept Scientific
- take a look at Adept adds Tag4M Wi-Fi sensor tag to product range
which says: "Adept Scientific has added the Tag4M Wi-Fi sensor tag from Cores Electronic to its data acquisition product range.".
Take a look also at the news release from Acces I/O Products, Acces launches USB-based DAQ and control modules,
as well as Fujitsu launches SoCs for power-line communication from Fujitsu Microelectronics,
and Silicon introduces ultra-low-power wireless MCUs from Silicon Laboratories.
