Pasternack introduces a new portfolio of ultra-high frequency directional waveguide couplers that operate up to 110 GHz. The portfolio includes 28 unique coupler models with varying frequency ranges from 18 GHz to 110 GHz in frequency bands K, Ka, Q, V, E and W. Two physical configurations are available: the standard waveguide and split block waveguide. “Both the traditional … [Read more...]
New Radio Telescope Detects Galaxy From 5 Billion Light Years Away
A new radio telescope in Western Australia, known as Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP), has discovered PKS B1740-517 – a galaxy located more than 5 billion light years away. Six of the 36 dishes on the radio telescope captured signals emitted from PKS B1740-517. This discovery demonstrates that ASKAP can detect galaxies and signals that other telescopes … [Read more...]
‘Unstoppable’ New Hacking Device Steals Encryption Keys Out of the Air
A group of researchers from Tel Aviv University and the Israeli research center have produced a new hacking device that can steal encryption keys “out of the air.” The device cannot be stopped by disabling Wi-Fi networks or turning off Bluetooth because the device doesn’t use standard communication methods to steal data. The device uses radio waves emitted from computer … [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...]
New Ceramic Disc Capacitors Save Space and Increase Reliability
Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. announced its new VYI Series of AC-line-rated ceramic disc safety capacitors. The capacitors offer reduced sizes, increased reliability and higher pulse strength up to 10 kV. The VYI Compact Series offers body diameters of 7.5 mm. “Featuring Y5U ceramic dielectrics, the VY1 Compact series is optimized for RFI and AC line filtering applications in … [Read more...]
Spaceship Antenna to Prevent Communication Blackouts
A team of scientists from the Harbin Institute of Technology proposed a new spaceship antenna to prevent space communication blackouts. The group’s research has been published in the Journal of Applied Physics. The new antenna can prevent communication blackouts in space when spacecraft are coming back into Earth’s atmosphere. “The proposed technique can maintain … [Read more...]
‘Pregnant Women’ Wi-Fi Router Setting Causes Debate in China
Two Chinese tech firms, Qihoo 360 and Xiaomi, have quarreled over a wireless router with a unique setting for pregnant women. The two firms are intense rivals and have both recently released new products. Qihoo 360 released the wireless router that is currently at the center of controversy. The router has three settings: wall penetration, balance and pregnant women. The … [Read more...]
Clamshell Socket Equipped with Temperature Monitoring
Ironwood Electronics announced its new Clamshell BGA socket with Bluetooth temperature monitoring. The socket can be used in extreme temperatures and offers advanced electrical performance. “A thermo couple sensor is brought down from the electronic circuitry to the internal socket cavity where the BGA is placed. When the BGA is placed and compressed against the PCB via … [Read more...]
NASA Developing Early Warning System for Solar Flares
NASA has announced it is developing an early warning system for solar flares to give the Earth more time to prepare for storms, thus reducing damage. Scientists from both NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center and Imperial College London published their research and experiments in Space Weather in the June 9 edition. Their research demonstrates how the new warning system can both … [Read more...]
Line of DC Connectors Performs to 67 GHz
Southwest Microwave, Inc. announces a new line of SuperMini Board-to-Board DC connectors that perform up to 67 GHz. “The SuperMini Board-to-Board connectors maximize electrical performance of the transmission path between connector and circuit while accommodating axial misalignment of up to .010” and radial misalignment of +/- 5° via unique bullet and PCB receptacle (jack) … [Read more...]
