Engineering Sample Kit for EMI

Reliably shield equipment against EMI, which can be done at the component level or by shielding the housing itself. In particular, if it appears that there is too much interference during an EMI test, it is desirable to resolve the interference immediately and on site. Leader Tech has a universal solution for this with their…

EMI shielding touchscreens

Combi-Shield from PSC is a display solution that provides EMI shielding, while preserving the touchscreen function. The retrofit mesh front panel consists of a chemically blackened grid of only 1-1.5mm thick, with an electrically conductive metal edge of at least 12mm wide. So it is not embedded in a glass or polycarbonate support plate. The…

Electrically conductive coating as EMC shielding

EMC shielding in electronic products can be expensive and take up a lot of space on the printed circuit board. This is particularly the case for products that are produced in high volumes, such as smartphones, IOT sensors and automotive electronics. But this also applies to sensitive radar systems and specialist equipment in aerospace. This…

Competitively priced thermal interface material

Parker Chomerics introduces the PAD60, a new thermal interface material that is very competitive in both price and performance. With a specified thermal conductivity of 6W/m-K, this fairly soft gap filler is an extremely effective solution between a heat sink and an electronic component. The competitive price, positions the PAD60 in consumer electronics, LED applications,…

RFID signal absorber

With the TLF material ABS Technics has developed a multi-layer RFID absorber plate for UHF applications, which minimizes or even completely avoids “false positive” recognitions. A typical application is in RFID recognition tunnels and truck docking stations. Unwanted RFID reflections sometimes arise there, for example through the steel construction of the building or adjacent RFID…

Perfect EMC shielding and grounding with mesh gaskets

Leadertech mesh gaskets are knitted fine mesh metal mesh gaskets that are used to provide EMI protection. This means that component transitions and connections must be electrically coupled to the chassis. The most common wire materials: Monel, a nickel-copper alloy: Most commonly used, it offers excellent EMI/RFI protection, high resistance to oxidation combined with high…

LISN, ready for practical measurements

A Line Impedance Stabilization Network or LISN is a test device that measures disturbances that are generated by a connected electrical device and which are passed on via cabling. These high-frequency disturbances pollute the mains; other devices may be disrupted or even get damaged. Most LISNs are only made to measure according to the standard.…

Adhesives: the alternative to (hard) soldering

CHO-BOND 584-208 is a two-component, silver-filled, electrically conductive epoxy adhesive, which can be used to replace soldered or welded joints under certain conditions. It has been developed for use in high volume applications where a strong, long lasting and low ohmic electrically conductive adhesive bond is required. The typical resistance is 0.002 ohm-cm and the…
