Murata announced the SCA3300 series of high performance 3 axis MEMS accelerometers aimed at a broad range of industrial and automotive applications. Measuring 7.6 × 8.6 × 3.3 mm this small surface mounted MEMS sensor offers a user selectable measurement range of 1.5 g, 3 g or 6 g and features better than 10 mg offset stability. […]

Superior altitude tracking for consumer devices

New resolver-to-digital converter enables up to a 50 percent reduction in board space and a lower bill-of-materials cost in automotive and industrial applications.

Murata announced two MEMS sensor products that use ballistocardiographic (BCG) techniques to detect and measure a patient’s heart rate without the need for any wires or connections. Designed for continuous patient monitoring at elderly care centres, hospitals or in the home, the SCA11H sensor node and SCA10H sensor module can also be used in a […]

When faced with the decision of what to use for the clock source in an electronic design, the traditional assumption has been that the only realistic choice for any application that needs even moderate accuracy is a quartz-based oscillator. Author: Craig Bakke, Product Manager at Digi-Key Quartz has dominated the market for decades but its […]
