CompuScope 12400 high-performance 12-bit digitizer can reach sampling speeds up to 400 MS/s and features on-board memory of up to 4 Gigabytes (2 Gigasamples).

Fast sampling rate enables the capture of high-speed signals with ultra-high timing precision and the high resolution allows signals with high dynamic range to be captured. For a range of applications such as radar/lidar system design and test, spectroscopy, communications, ultrasonic non-destructive testing, manufacturing test, signal intelligence and high-performance imaging.Finite Impulse Response (FIR) Filtering and Signal Averaging Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) technologies are options available for the digitizer.                       

Available with up to two billion samples of on-board acquisition memory. Deep acquisition memory is useful for applications that require sampling of a long record at a high sampling rate. Examples include radar signal analysis, disk drive testing and signal intelligence. Multiple cards can be configured as Master/Slave to create a high channel count system without compromising the acquisition memory depth or sampling rate.

UV19 is a low viscosity, flexible UV-curable composition for fast, high performance laminating, sealing, bonding and casting. The optically clear, mobile liquid cures readily upon exposure to UV light at ambient temperatures to a flexible strong solid with mechanical strength properties and adhesion to different substrates, including most plastics, glasses and metals.

100% reactive; does not contain volatiles. Its cure is not inhibited by air, exhibits minimal shrinkage when cured. Said to have excellent resistance to water and other aggressive chemicals. 

Viscosity of less than 300cps at 75°F enhances its utility for laminating as well as sealing, bonding and coating applications. Has a tensile strength in excess of 800 psi and high impact strength, abrasion resistance and heat stability.

ALPHA EF-8000 lead-free, no-clean wave solder flux technology is said to provide excellent first pass yields, worry free in-circuit testability and electrical reliability in both lead-free and tin lead wave soldering applications. 
 
IPC rated ROL0, exceeds the Bellcore and JIS standards for electromigration and surface insulation resistance, as well as more stringent electromigration and bulk insulation resistance requirements from leading OEM's. 
 
"ALPHA EF-8000...withstands the higher PWB surface temperatures required for successful lead-free soldering, but it is fully capable for use in standard tin-lead applications," said Mitch Holtzer, Global Product Manager at CEAM. "In addition, it can be qualified now for emerging lead-free requirements, and used in lead-free or tin lead production lines." 
 
Low rosin content minimizes flux residue build up on pallets and wave soldering equipment normally associated with high (>10%) rosin flux formulas.

2200-087 Series flow-control valve starts or stops the flow of pressure-fed materials quickly and effectively. Has No-Drip carbide ball-end needle and hardened seat, designed to handle low- to high-viscosity and abrasive materials such as adhesives, sealants and lubricants. Controls the flow of fluid materials and chemicals in material-delivery and fluid-dispensing systems.
 
All-pneumatic, double-acting valve is ideal for pump and meter-system inlet and outlet fluid-flow management. Has 3/4"-NPT inlet and outlet ports and is rated for 4,000 PSI. Can be used with a fluid regulator to stop bypass flow and maintain down-stream pressure after closing.
 
Also used as a high-viscosity or high-flow dispense valve in automated, repetitive or high-speed dispensing applications, such as fixtured automation or robot-tool-mounted dispensing. May be mounted to fixed or movable tooling or brackets and activated by automation, hand or footswitch actuator.

AS5035, an 8-bit incremental magnetic rotary encoder for cost-sensitive industrial and automotive applications, is suited for use in human-machine interface applications, such as front panel switches, or as an alternative to optical encoder-based applications where dust or other particles could diminish reliability and accuracy.
 
Provides incremental quadrature A/B output signals and an index output signal. The index signal represents a mechanical reference point, called the zero position, which can be programmed by the user at the system assembly stage. Operation safety is ensured by continuous monitoring of the magnet presence and the optimal magnet position in the system. 
 
Features 64 pulses per revolution on each of the two quadrature output channels, for resolution of 2.8°/step over a full turn of 360°. Failure detection monitors the magnet's placement during the operation. In case of a missing or loose magnet, the device instantly provides a warning signal.
 
Operates at rotational speeds up to 10,000 revolutions/min.,  at either 3.3 or 5 V, without missing any incremental pulses. The zero position can be programmed by the user. Operating temperature ranges from -40 to +125°C. Available in a lead-free SSOP 16 (5.3mm x 6.2mm) package.

9300 Series equipment platforms offers omnidirectional, ultra-low-frequency vibration damping and automatic leveling while raising equipment only inches off the floor. Proprietary airmount system provides vertical isolation, while tri-filar pendulum assembly provides stable cradle support for horizontal isolation. The pendulum assembly eliminates the need for the resonance-generating corner lift brackets.

Platform stiffness is comparable to that of a 3" plate of solid steel at approximately one-third the weight and with more efficient damping — vibration isolation efficiencies at maximum load (up to 25,000 lbs.) can be as high as 98% for vertical natural frequency and 96% for horizontal natural frequency. 

Standard platform is a rigid, lightweight, epoxy-laminated "sandwich" — a 2" composite layer between 1/2" top and bottom plates of corrosion-resistant steel.

Standard finish is black polyurethane, but can be finished with stainless steel or white epoxy powder coat.  Available in custom sizes or shapes, with extra leg supports, and with cutouts or notches. Nonmagnetic platforms are also available.

Applications include vibration isolation for SEMs, TEMs, CMMs, steppers and mask aligners.

The Gryphon line of AC and DC axial fans provides customers with economical thermal management solutions.
 
Integrated into each air-moving product is an electronic protection feature that automatically prevents damage to the product's motor and electronics, even if the propeller is physically jammed while the unit is powered. 
 
Standard tachometer feature is integrated in each DC axial fan.  The tachometer is a two pulse per revolution, open collector signal that measures rotational speed. It allows a host system to know the speed and health of a fan at any time during normal operation.                                            
 
Measure 25 to 120 mm, with 12, 24 and 48 volt versions. AC products are offered in 115 and 230-volt versions and compatible with either 50 or 60 Hz power sources.  AC models come standard with fitted terminals and are available with an optional plug and cord set to fit any connection.
