element14 Community hosts webinars to kick off the new year

Start the new year with expert-led webinars on cutting-edge DC-DC converter designs and transformative MEMS sensor technologies

by Electronica Azi

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
