What is Motion Sensors? Motion Sensors are used to detect movement by way of digital, mechanical or electronic instrumentation and controls. A physical or electronic sensor detects motion either by way of acoustical or optical changes across a field of view. The sensor transmits the information directly to hardware or software to cause further action to take […]
What are Environmental Controls? Environmental controls are electronics that measure and control the temperature within heating and cooling systems. Using customizable direct digital control, various uses and features can be enabled including setpoints, time schedules, timers, logic signals, controllers, alarms and trend logs. Digital and analog inputs included with environmental controls assist in the measurement of variables such as […]
The following are examples of some of the more commonly used constructions for Flex and Rigid+Flex PCBS found in common applications. Flex Construction Flex circuit layer counts typically vary from 1-6 layers. Constructions can accommodate plated through holes (PTH) and surface mount technology (SMT) components. Polyimide or FR4 stiffeners are commonly added to meet application […]
What is involved in Making Printed Circuit Boards? The process of Making Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) is generally performed by a PCB Manufacturer, versus an in-house manufacturing process. Mass production and fabrication of PCB’s demand a quality and consistency that can only be achieved by contracting a professional facility for making printed circuit boards. Benefits of contracting a manufacturer […]
What is Medical Laboratory Equipment? Medical laboratory equipment  is any technological system or device used to diagnose, treat, prevent or rehabilitate. Many breakthroughs in instruments and appliances have made very intricate procedures possible with considerable accuracy. Many professions within the science and healthcare communities continue to benefit from the use of medical laboratory equipment, including clinical work in […]
What is Solar Instrumentation? Solar instrumentation is the electronic hardware used for any technology application of solar powered electronics. Solar instrumentation assists in the utilization of concentrated solar power (CSP) or photovoltaics (PV) to convert sunlight into electricity. Concentrated solar power employs mirrors or lenses in conjunction with tracking systems to focus larges areas of sunlight into smaller beams. […]
What is Sensors Instrumentation? Sensors instrumentation refers to the ability to identify and collect information from an environment and translate it into data that can be processed and evaluated. A sensor is any devices that takes measurements of physical quantum and then converts the measurements into a signal that is readable by an instrument or observer. An […]
What are Instrumentation & Controls? Instrumentation & controls refer to electronic devices or assemblies used to monitor, measure, manage or operate equipment, vehicles, machines and many other products. What are the benefits of Instrumentation & Controls? The ability to control devices and systems remotely is one of the potential benefits of instrumentation & controls. Heavy machinery, for example, can […]
