Indium Corporation will feature Indium11.8HF-SPR Solder Paste – a new air and nitrogen reflow, no-clean, Pb-free solder paste designed to meet the fine feature printing requirements of mobile manufacturers – at IPC APEX Expo 2018, Feb. 24-March 1 in San Diego, Calif.

Analog Devices, Inc. announces the Power by Linear™ LT8364, a current mode, 2MHz step-up DC/DC converter with an internal 4A, 60V switch. It operates from an input voltage range of 2.8V to 60V, and is suitable for applications with input sources ranging from a single-cell Li-Ion battery to multicell battery stacks, automotive inputs, telecom power supplies and industrial power rails.

Passive Plus, Inc. (PPI) now offers extended-values for the Traditional NP0, Hi-Q 0505 (.055” x.055”) -- now available up to 1,000pF; and 1111 (.110” x.110”) -- now available up to 10,000pF (.01uF). The 0505 and 1111 have an increased Operational Temperature up to 200°C.

Industrial designers can now achieve 2x faster data rates and extend cable length by up to 50% with MAX22500E, MAX22501E, and MAX22502E RS-485 transceivers from Maxim Integrated Products, Inc.

IPC - Association Connecting Electronics Industries® announced today the October 2017 findings from its monthly North American Printed Circuit Board (PCB) Statistical Program. Positive year-over-year shipment and order growth continued October. The book-to-bill ratio remained high in October at 1.12.

Microsemi Corporation, a provider of semiconductor solutions differentiated by power, security, reliability and performance, today announced the availability of a new IEEE™ 1588 timing synchronization module, offering a complete self-contained platform for customers to implement IEEE 1588 network timing client protocols.

Developed at the specific request of industrial electronics customers, Knowles brand Syfer can now offer MLCC’s, for non-safety critical applications, up to 500Vac, 50/60Hz continuous. Syfer pioneered 250Vac rated MLCC’s for non-safety critical applications to complement its range of industry standard DC rated and market leading TUV / UL qualified class X & Y surge and safety MLCCs.

Pico Technology has added three 15 GHz models and a further 25 GHz model to its professional, portable and low-cost PicoScope 9300 Series of Sampling Oscilloscopes. The new 15 GHz models replace the preceding 9200 Series 12 GHz models, with significantly upgraded specifications at even lower prices, with the result that all Pico Sampling Oscilloscopes now operate under the much-respected PicoSample 3 software.

Currently digitizers have a bottleneck caused by having to use either the host PC's central processor with 8 or 16 cores or a FPGA that is complex to program.  Spectrum Instrumentation has solved this problem with its new SCAPP software option - the Spectrum CUDA Access for Parallel Processing - that opens an easy-to-use yet extremely powerful way to digitize, process and analyze electronic signals.

ZTE Corporation (0763.HK / 000063.SZ), an international provider of telecommunications, enterprise and consumer technology solutions for the Mobile Internet, jointly announced with Telefonica Mexico Movistar (TMM) that the co-established beyond 100G optical transport network (OTN) were formally put into commercial application today. This network covers three core cities: Mexico City, Monterrey and Guadalajara. It meets the high traffic demands to bring ultimate user experience for the next five to ten years.
