element14, an Avnet Community, has announced two upcoming webinars this January, designed to empower engineers and professionals with insights into cutting-edge technologies like DC-DC converters and MEMS (Micro Electromechanical Systems) sensors.
Isolated DC-DC Converters for the Design Engineer with Bourns
(Tuesday, 14 January 2025 at 2:00 PM – 3:00 PM GMT / 8:00 AM – 9:00 AM CST)
Join Cathal Sheehan, Technical Marketing Manager at Bourns, for an in-depth exploration of isolated DC-DC converters. This webinar is tailored for design engineers looking to optimise their designs for performance, safety, and compliance.
Key topics include:
- An introduction to isolated DC-DC converters
- The importance of galvanic isolation for safety and noise immunity
- Selection of converter topology (flyback, forward, push-pull, etc.)
- Transformer design and selection tips
- Meeting regulatory requirements and EMI/EMC compliance
- Techniques to minimise electromagnetic interference, including shielding and filtering
Additionally, in conjunction with the webinar, element14 Community is running a competition where two winners will receive a digital multimeter worth $215. Full details can be found here.
The Power of High-Performance MEMS Sensors with Murata
(Thursday, 16 January 2025 at 2:00 PM – 3:00 PM GMT / 8:00 AM – 9:00 AM CST)
Dive into the world of Micro Electromechanical Systems (MEMS) sensors and discover how these precise, intelligent, and sustainable technologies are revolutionising industries.
This session will cover:
- An introduction to MEMS sensors, including accelerometers, inclinometers, and gyro sensors
- How MEMS sensors are integrating into drones and other technologies to bring about change in industries
- Examples of how MEMS are used, including precision agriculture as a use case
- How Farnell, Avnet, and Murata work together to provide organisations with the perfect MEMS sensors for their applications
