Artesyn Embedded Technologies has unveiled what it touts as its highest density sixteenth brick isolated DC-DC converter for distributed power applications such as telecom, computing and networking equipment. The AVD100 series of 100W to 120W, 1/16th brick DC-DC converters are optimised for high density applications with limited space, providing remarkable thermal performance and up to 92.5 per cent efficiency, detailed the company.
Artesyn AVD100 series units operate from a wide 36VDC to 75VDC input range and provide regulated adjustable 5V or 12V output voltages. They can operate from -40°C to 85°C.
Features include output over current, short circuit, over voltage and over-temperature protection. The AVD100 series also has an enable pin on the primary side of the converter. The units are an open frame design with baseplate option that is optimised for either contact-cooled or forced-airflow applications. Standard product options include surface-mount or plated through-hole with different pin lengths and positive and negative enable options.

Robotic glove helps restore hand movements
The device is an improvement from conventional robotic hand rehabilitation devices as it has sensors to detect muscle signals and conforms to the natural movements of the human hand.
K-Glass 2 detects users' eye movements to point the cursor to recognise computer icons or objects in the Internet, and uses winks for commands. The researchers call this interface the "i-Mouse."
