Start with the news release
MCC offers bus-powered USB-to-I2C-bus adapter from
Micro Computer Control, which we summarised at the time by saying "The I2CStick from Micro Computer Control (MCC) is a bus-powered USB-to-I2C-bus adapter for on-the-go mobile developers, test engineers and field-support personnel.".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release DC/DC controller is ideal for portable instruments from
Linear Technology: "Linear Technology has introduced the LTC3868/-1, a low quiescent current, two-phase dual output synchronous step-down DC/DC controller.".
In March 2010, we covered the news from ITT Interconnect Solutions
- take a look at ITT unveils snap-on and ultrasonic PCMCIA I/O kits
which says: "ITT Interconnect Solutions has developed two PCMCIA I/O kits - snap-on and ultrasonic - each available with a range of options and customisable features for maximum design flexibility.".
Take a look also at the news release from AVX, AVX varistor series can withstand multiple strikes,
