TECHNOLOGY IN ACTION
ouser Electronics, Inc., a leading engineering resource and global distributor of semiconductors and electronic components, today announced the launch of a PCB design integration tool MultiSIM BLUE, designed in collaboration with National Instruments Co. (NI). The powerful tool is available free globally, and is offered in English and German as well as Simplified Chinese. This all-new PCB design integration tool utilizes
MultiSIM BLUE M
the Berkeley SPICE engine and includes a preloaded component library of over 100,000 frequently used components from multiple Mouser databases. MultiSIM BLUE facilitates real-time BOM price quotes and component database updates enhance the creative design engineering efficiency. The tool supports pre-layout design convergence analysis and mixed-signal simulation, and can handle components as complex as BGAs with over 1000 pins on pin-pitches down to 0.8mm. MultiSIM BLUE also provides a 3D visualization of the PCB with no limits on the shape and size of the PCB, thereby enabling innovative, forward-looking design.

Electronics has just celebrated 30 years as a supplier to the connector and cable assembly market offering a high level of customer service along with their engineering technical support services. Their range of products has evolved over the years and their latest addition is a range of waterproof connectors, which are particularly suitable to Marine and Lighting applications, including the current trend of LED lighting, although they can be used for in any application requiring a low cost solution where moisture or dust protection is required. There are 5 different sizes with 3 different locking methods available. The waterproof range is predominantly circular but the range extends to USB, RJ45, HDMI and D connectors. Their range of circular connectors now includes
Waterproof, Industrial and High Performance push lock connectors, M8 and M12 connectors which are currently being submitted for NMEA2000 approval.

Looking to protect data and prolong battery life in your portable applications?
Microchip’s new PIC24F “GB2” MCUs secure data and cut power consumption W
ith integrated security features, eXtreme Low Power (XLP) technology and easy connectivity, Microchip’s PIC24F “GB2” family of 16-bit microcontrollers enables secure data transfers and storage for Internet of Things and other battery-powered embedded applications.
The fully featured hardware crypto engine in Microchip's PIC24F "GB2" Microcontrollers supports
AES, DES
and 3DES encryption, protecting the data in embedded designs whilst also reducing the software overhead, cutting power consumption and increasing data throughput.
These security-optimised microcontrollers also provide random keys for data encryption, decryption and authentication with an on-chip Random Number Generator, and add One-Time-Programmable (OTP) key storage to prevent the encryption key from being accessed or overwritten.
Using eXtreme Low Power (XLP) technology, the PIC24F “GB2” family of microcontrollers can achieve run currents down to just 180 µA/MHz and sleep currents to 18 nA to extend battery life in sensor nodes and hand-held products.
On-chip connectivity includes USB Host and Device as well as a UART with ISO7816 support, which is helpful for smartcard applications, whilst compatibility with Microchip’s certified Wi-Fi®, ZigBee®, Bluetooth® and Bluetooth Low Energy modules delivers wireless connectivity for PIC24F “GB2” designs.

Waterproof connectors from Selwyn Electronics T
he Interconnection Specialist, Selwyn
The waterproof range compliments the existing Interconnection products that Selwyn have available. These included Board to Board, Cable to Board, Modular connectors, BGA sockets and adaptors, Coax, Memory card, Terminal Blocks, Telecom/Network, and SATA/SAS connectors. Another product range that has been particularly successful for Selwyn is the Custom Connectors that they can supply. In some applications, a standard connector is not suitable and with their technical expertise, Selwyn can help design and produce a custom solution for their customers. To truly call themselves Interconnection Specialists, Selwyn also have a custom cable assembly design and manufacturing service. With factories in both the UK and China, this allows them to use whichever facility is best suited to each customer requirement, whether it is 20 or 20,000 pcs.
Having a cable assembly
manufacturing service also allows Selwyn to use their vast knowledge to assist their customers to find the best design for their product.
