Sensirion has two new product
variants within its SDP800
series of differential pressure
sensors. The product versions
SDP821 and SDP831 are suitable
for applications with high
requirements when it comes to
fail-safe operation. In order to
guarantee these requirements,
both sensors have been certified
according to the GAR (Gas
Appliances Regulation) standard.
Therefore, they can be used in
applications like gas burners. In
combined gas-and-air systems
such as boilers, the air/fuel ratio
can be accurately and quickly
regulated using a mass flow
sensor. This enables the boiler to
be dynamically adjusted, meaning
that it can run more efficiently
and adapt to changing conditions
more quickly.

Pico Technology's PicoScope
6000E Series FlexRes
oscilloscopes feature eight
channels with 500-MHz
bandwidth, 16 digital channels,
and resolution of 8-, 10- or
12-bits. The products work with
PicoScope 6 application software,
which takes full advantage of the
latest PC performance and display
capabilities, showing clean, crisp
waveforms. The top-of-therange PicoScope 6824E has dual
5-Gsample/s analog-to-digital
converters and 4 Gsamples of
capture memory as standard. It
offers a rich set of built-in tools
for embedded systems debug,
including DeepMeasure that
captures the measurement results
of each one in up to a million
cycles.

Ironwood Electronics recently
introduced a new highperformance BGA socket for
a 0.65-mm-pitch BGA 625-pin
device. The CG-BGA-5032 socket
is designed for 16- by 16-mm
package sizes and operates at a
bandwidth of up to 30 GHz with
less than 1 dB of insertion loss.
The socket is designed with an
easy-open double-latch clamshell
lid with integrated compression
mechanism. The contact
resistance is typically 20 mΩ per
pin. The socket connects all pins
with 30-GHz bandwidth on all
connections. It's mounted using
supplied hardware on the target
PCB with no soldering, and has a
small footprint.

Three new high-accuracy
yaw-pitch-roll stages have been
introduced by OES: the YPR10010-15-01 (driven by stepper motor;
pictured), the YPR100-10-15-02
(driven by brushless servo motor)
and the YPR100-10-15-03 (driven
by DC servomotor). These yawpitch-roll stages are suitable
for the precise measurement of
compound angles or the curvature
of an object. The yaw axis (bottom
stage) is capable of rotation of
large angles and features a 180:1
ratio gear. The positional accuracy
is 0.05 degrees, and repeatability
is ±0.01 degrees. The pitch axis
(middle stage) has cross roller
guides and a range of travel of
±10 degrees plus an accuracy of
0.05 degrees and repeatability
of ±0.01 degrees. The rotation
center height is 50 mm.
