The Siglent SNA5000X-E vector network analyser (VNA) series, designed for RF measurement, is now available from Telonic Instruments. The two models in the SNA5000X-E series can be used for determining the Q factor, bandwidth, and insertion loss of a filter. They feature impedance conversion, movement of measurement plane, fixture simulation, and adapter removal/insertion adjustments. The VNAs have five sweep types ...
Arrow, Microchip , Bourns, and Amphenol have come up with an evaluation platform – the 10BASE-T1S REF_SPE_T1S reference design board. The design assists engineers in adopting Single Pair Ethernet (SPE) by addressing the magnetic connection that links data to the physical cable and enables system-level evaluation of signal integrity, EMC behaviour, and noise immunity in real-world applications. SPE performance is ...

DigiKey has collaborated with STMicroelectronics and Ultra Librarian for a new version of the eDesignSuite tool. eDesignSuite This is a free no-license-required online design platform developed by ST. It aims to provide a unified workflow for power management, signal conditioning, NFC/RFID applications and other design domains. The improvements, highlight the distributor, allows engineers to design, simulate, and validate their projects ...
Resistors undoubtedly belong to the most basic and essential electronic components. Every modern device contains dozens, sometimes even hundreds of such elements inside. Their task is quite simple – to limit the value of the electric current flowing in the circuit, so that other components can be precisely driven without the risk of damage. SMD Resistors – a wide selection ...
Farnell has signed a new distribution agreement with Hongfa, a leading manufacturer of relays and electromechanical components. The agreement comes as demand for high-performance, reliable relay solutions continues to grow across industrial automation, automotive, energy, and smart building applications. The partnership will introduce high-quality relay and switching technologies to Farnell customers across EMEA, expanding choice and improving availability for design, ...
Arrow Electronics is collaborating with NXP Semiconductors to support customers preparing for the EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA), which sets mandatory essential cybersecurity requirements for products with digital elements sold in the European Union. With full enforcement scheduled for Dec. 11, 2027, and severe penalties for non-compliance, manufacturers will need to demonstrate that cybersecurity is built into their products from ...
Anglia Components is actively advising customers of anticipated supply constraints in the market. The company is warning that the market is flipping from a downward price trend with most components available ex-stock, to an upward price trend and extending lead times. Prices are rising by 5-15%, and lead-times from manufacturers for standard products such as MCUs has already reached 23 ...
