Electromagnetic Catapult Successfully Installed on Aircraft Carrier
The Navy’s new electromagnetic catapult, the Electromagnetic Aircraft Launch System, (EMALS) has successfully been installed on the USS Gerald R. Ford, replacing the steam catapults previously used to launch aircraft. Because EMALS yields less maintenance, more control, more reliability and a lighter weight, the Navy decided it will be used on all future aircraft carriers in … [Read more...]
Series of Reliable RF & Microwave Power Amplifiers Makes Debut
Fairview Microwave introduces a new family of RF and microwave power amplifiers that offer high reliability and broadband frequency ranges from 0.5 MHz to 20 GHz. The amplifier series is best suited for use in demanding environments and applications such as electronic warfare, military communications, radar, telecom, medical, test & measurement, point-to-point radio and … [Read more...]
New Waveguide Detectors Cover Frequency Ranges from 26.5 to 110 GHz
Pasternack introduces new high performance waveguide detectors that cover frequency ranges from 26.5 to 110 GHz. The detectors are zero biased and perform the best in KA, Q, U, V, E and W frequency bands. Because the detectors are zero biased, no external DC bias or mechanical tuning is needed. The detectors also offer a rugged steel construction, high thermal stability, … [Read more...]
Canted Coil Catalog Describes Benefits for EMI/RFI Shielding
Bal Seal Engineering, Inc. released a new 10-page catalog that describes the benefits of canted coil springs for EMI/RFI Shielding. It “provides engineers and designers with detailed information about how canted coil springs can be used to address electromagnetic interference/radio-frequency interference (EMI/RFI) shielding challenges. It describes how the compact, … [Read more...]
Connector Series Includes EMI Shielding
Mouser Electronics introduces the Amphenol Pegasus series of twist and lock ‘scoop-proof’ connectors with EMI shielding. “EMI shielding is provided by an electroless copper and nickel plate, and a copper alloy spring finger gasket. Tests show greater than 50db of attenuation for low-end signals (<100Mhz) and greater than 40db of attenuation for high-end signals (<1Ghz),” … [Read more...]
Defense Contractor to Produce Electromagnetic Aircraft Launch System
General Atomics, a defense contractor in San Diego, Calif., announced it will produce the Electromagnetic Aircraft Launch System (EMALS) and Advanced Arresting Gear (AAG) for the John F. Kennedy aircraft carrier under a contract from the U.S. Navy. The EMALS system uses bursts of electromagnetic energy to launch planes and jets into the air. It takes up less space on ships, … [Read more...]
Company Offers New EMI Filter Solutions
Astrodyne TDI offers new EMI Filter products and solutions with its recent acquisition of product lines from Filter Concepts, LCR Electronics and Radius Power. “We offer an extensive range of UL, cUL and IEC approved standard off the shelf filters for Power Entry (IEC Inlet), DC (up to 1200Vdc), single phase (up to 300Vac), and 3 phase (up to 600Vac) applications that directly … [Read more...]
Military Radio Frequencies May Interfere with Garage Door Openers
Remote-control garage door openers near the Blue Grass Army Depot in Richmond K.Y. may stop working due to military radio systems switching to a new frequency range. The U.S. military will switch all land mobile radios (LMRs) to new frequencies, which are also the same frequencies used by certain unlicensed consumer devices, like garage door openers. These frequencies have … [Read more...]
Electromagnetic Catapult Successfully Launches Dead Load Truck into River
Earlier this week, the U.S. Navy began dead load testing the Electromagnetic Aircraft Launch System (EALS) on the Gerald R. Ford CVN 78. The electromagnetic slingshot launched an 80,000 pound dead load truck into the James River in Virginia. The truck reportedly weighed as much as a jet. Even though the truck wasn’t airborne for too long before hitting the water, the test … [Read more...]
