The Vertex Series-A x-ray inspection system can reportedly be customized to any inspection task. Said to allow for faster load/unload product exchange and reproducible results based on repeatability of closed-loop control system. Inspects PCBs up to 20 x 24". Modular configuration is said to allow choice of tube, detector and motion components and software options. One operator reportedly can run multiple machines; multiple assemblies can be loaded simultaneously. Has an adjustable operator console, sliding door, large window and easy sample loading.
The 7742-74 and 7745-74 durable adhesive transfer tapes come in 0.002" and 0.005" versions, respectively, for use in automotive, electronics and general industrial applications. Consist of pressure sensitive acrylic adhesive and reportedly provide shear strengths at temperatures up to 300ºF. The polyester fiber reinforcement is said to provide roll stability when slit to widths of 1/8". Adhesion to metals and plastics.
Elpeguard SL 1400 ECO-FLZ one-pack conformal coatings reportedly exhibit optimum climatic protection at high temperatures and humidity (85°C/85% relative humidity). Have standard layer thicknesses of approx. 30 microns. Said to initially cure physically and then by reacting with humidity. Said to be colorless, transparent conformal coatings based on chemically reacting polyurethane resins. Reportedly have high solids content and are free of aromatic solvents and heavy metals. UL approved as “permanent coating.”
A comprehensive line of end-to-end RFID solutions includes RFID tags, inlays, readers, antennas and software. The RFID labels and tags are available in molded, removable and self-adhesive styles. Are suited for rugged use in harsh environments, including aerospace, defense, transportation, and medical applications. Also offered: ruggedized system-level solutions encompassing UHF, HF, and LF technologies for readers and antennas.
The Analyst fcs ICT directly accommodates bed-of-nails test fixtures built for Agilent 3X7X-series in-circuit test systems. A fully-equipped, four-module Analyst fcs costs about $150,000.
Allows users to use existing Agilent fixtures directly. Boards not requiring digital vector test are tested on their original fixtures using the Analyst tester, which has built-in "headroom" for power-on test, boundary scan, and ISP device programming. The tester accepts 1-, 2- and 4-module 3070-style bed-of-nails test fixtures. The system can be equipped with up to 5184 points and supports available Agilent Device Under Test power supplies.
DES PLAINES, IL – PCB Libraries Inc.
has released a free IPC-7351 land pattern calculator that reportedly
generates results that match the LP Viewer library
documentation.
The calculator is a scaled down version of
the LP Wizard. It calculates CAD library parts that comply with the
latest IPC-7351 revision. It relies on the data underlying the IPC
standard, which includes fabrication, assembly and component
tolerance-based mathematical algorithms.
IPC-7351 uses
calculations that represent a change in the way land patterns are
defined, developed and categorized. It is published by IPC, Association
Connecting Electronics Industries.
“We’re pleased to be
working with IPC in a unified effort to provide PCB designers worldwide
with access to our IPC-7351 CAD libraries and LP Software tools," said
Tom Hausherr, CEO and director of technology at PCB Libraries.
