New Products
Highland Technology has released its latest industrial/aerospace VME module, the model V210 relay board.
The V210 features 64 SPDT electromechanical power relays under VME register control. Features include relay state readback, VME activity and error LEDs, and jumper-free configuration. Relays are rated for 2 amps, 240 VAC, 60 watts maximum.
The module is switch-selectable to operate in conventional or latching-relay modes, and is a drop-in replacement for all versions of the VMIC VMIVME2210 relay module.
The J720-3 and J720-13 are two new single-channel, compact ST or FC connectorized 1310 nm fiberoptic electrical-to-optical converters. Fast rise-time and ultra-low jitter performance ensure optimal signal link quality for +5V logic signals.
The PH200, designed by Phil Hobbs, is a compact, integrated, DC-coupled free-space optical to electrical converter. It uses a unique photon-coupled transimpedance architecture to provide an unprecedented combination of megahertz bandwidth and shot noise limited noise performance at nanoampere photodiode currents.
Introduced to the market in August, the V220 is ideal for driving and sensing transducers in computer or PLC-based control systems. It can also be used to simulate complex industrial processes to control systems under development and certification.
All units are equipped with channel test relays and a front-panel D9 test connector, allowing channel performance and calibration to be verified without disconnecting field wiring.
Completed in May, the V490 has already seen successful implementation into major aerospace industry systems. It has 16 independent acquisition channels, each with a programmable-gain differential amplifier, analog anti-aliasing filter, 16-bit analog-to-digital converter, and digital post-processing. With a dedicated A/D converter per channel, the V490 provides true simultaneous sampling, which can be extended across multiple V490s or triggered from an external TTL signal.
Popular as a standalone product and as an accessory, the T760 converts two digital fiberoptic inputs into high-level isolated electrical pulse outputs. Each optical input has an individual digital threshold trimpot, analog signal monitor, and threshold test point, allowing optimum setting of receive thresholds.
The T750 is a compact 4-channel high-voltage pulse driver. Each channel includes an input comparator and a transformer-coupled high-voltage power output stage. Output pulses follow the logic inputs and are processed by an adaptive pulse width limiter that prevents output transformer saturation.
