Laird BL654PA Modules for Bluetooth 5 and Thread Implementation Now at Mouser Electronics
M
ouser Electronics is now stocking the BL654PA (Power Amplified) module from Laird Connectivity. The FCC, IC,
RCM, KC, and Bluetooth® SIG-certified module allows engineers to implement single-mode Bluetooth 5 and Thread (802.15.4) technology into simple Bluetooth Low Energy designs. The Laird BL654PA module, available from Mouser
Electronics, is based on the highly flexible multi-protocol Nordic nRF52840 system-on-chip (SoC), which features a powerful Arm® Cortex®-M4F core and a multiprotocol radio that supports Bluetooth 5, ANT/ANT+, and proprietary 2.4 GHz networking. The BL654PA module offers extended wireless range with transmit power +18 dBm, configurable down to -26 dBm. The BL654PA module provides design flexibility with
several programming options, including Laird’s smartBASIC language. The smartBASIC language, ideal for memory- constrained applications, cuts time to market by enabling fast and efficient Bluetooth Low Energy development.

ZF Energy Harvesting Bluetooth Low Energy Switch at Internet of Things Seminars
F
rom medical to industrial, every market is being disrupted by the Internet of Things (IoT). Along with their partners and distributors, ON Semiconductor will host a series of technical seminars in several key locations
worldwide. The first seminar series about “Innovations in Smart Homes and Buildings” sponsored by ZF Friedrichshafen AG and Bosch Sensortec, features technical presentations from leading experts and hands-on demonstrations.
The seminars will present solutions using technologies which are transforming and digitizing consumer and industrial markets within the Internet of Things. The focus is energy-efficient applications for access control, surveillance and interaction that improves comfort for the user. At each of the 11 locations, ZF Friedrichshafen AG will be presenting its Energy Harvesting product range. Participants will have the opportunity to get a hands-on experience of the batteryfree and wireless products, and to discuss projects and potential applications with the ZF sales team.

Connector design ingenuity reduces total PC board processing costs
with innovative designs that work around PC board space constraints, enable automated assembly, facilitate blind mating, and more. Advanced Interconnections specializes in customized interconnect solutions for development, test, validation, and volume production applications. Experienced application engineers work directly with global customers to create customized solutions with a focus on design for assembly (DFA). Value-added features and in-house technology from the Advanced® Tool Box of 35+ years of interconnect ingenuity are designed-in to reduce PC board processing and product assembly time and costs.
C Value-added features from the Advanced® Tool Box include:
• Solder preform terminals provide a controlled volume of solder to improve solder joints and allow through-hole connectors to be reflowed with surface mount devices
• Shrouded insulators protect pins and facilitate blind mating or automated pick-and-place • Unique insulator shapes fit around PC board layout constraints • Removable carriers eliminate hand-loading of terminals to reduce assembly time
Advanced Interconnections designs and manufactures customized interconnect solutions for semiconductor development and high reliability electronic applications including medical, military, automotive, and telecommunications. IC sockets, package conversion adapters, and board to board connectors feature screw- machined terminals for field-proven performance and durability. From prototype to production volumes, innovative designs are produced to customer-specific requirements in our fully integrated manufacturing facility in the USA.
Thousands of standard and custom designs are available. View our Connector Customization video or find an Authorized Distributor in the UK at

New, high contrast OLED displays with SPI and I²C
M
MS Electronics Ltd now offers four models of the EA OLED displays. The EA OLEDM204 is an alphanumeric
display that functions as a 4x20, 3x20 or 2x20 display. Three graphic displays: The small EA OLEDS102-6 (102x64 pixel / 36x25 VA), EA OLEDM128-6 (128x64 / 51x31 VA) and larger EA OLEDL128-6 (128x64 / 64x37 VA). The displays are a slim design and plug into a 0.1” pitch socket or solder directly into the PCB. No ZIF sockets, fasteners or glue is required hence saving assembly cost. The displays offer excellent readability, high contrast, wide viewing angle and fast response time over the whole temperature range of - 40°C to +80°C. SPI and I²C Interface. The displays have a scratch and UV protective glass with a polarizer for a deep black background. For quick evaluation without need to write any code demo board EA 9781-1USB is available. 2 display sizes are also available with USB, check with MMS Electronics Ltd, authorised UK distributor for Electronic Assembly Gmbh for details.
