New high brightness TFT range from GTK
GTK has expanded its range of colour TFT displays to include high brightness versions that are sunlight readable. The new displays range in size from 3.5” to 7” and operate at brightness levels spanning from 800 – 1100 cd/m2.
The new range of displays even includes a 7” option with IPS (in-plane switching) technology, which delivers free viewing angles as well as improved colour contrast and consistency, offering smartphone- quality at cost-effective prices.
The new displays are supplied with an RGB interface or, in the case of the IPS display, an LVDS interface to support fast frame rates.
GTK can support customers, by supplying bespoke cable assemblies for connecting the displays to PCBs, or with additional optical enhancements, such as OCA bonding that is ideal for use in harsh environments. GTKs display specialists can provide guidance on selection of the most suitable display, and the interface with the end-use device.

Programmable TFT display with camera input and I/O
MMS Electronics now has three display sizes available in the object programmable displays. The new EA uniTFT050 (5.0” 800x480 pixel), EA uniTFT070 (7” IPS 1024x600) and EA uniTFT101 (10.1” IPS 1280x800 pixel) use the UNISKETCH software with drag and drop function and object graphics programming. Design engineers and systems integrators benefit from shorter development times and gain more flexibility. These TFT display modules, with on-board powerful controller, open up many new possibilities for developers. Objects can be placed, moved,
rotated, combined and deleted at any time. Objects can be linked to actions and I/O. Elegant effects such as fading in and out or flying in are possible. Commands for sliders, dials, buttons, images, MP3 sound files, data logging and calculations are included. In many cases the on- board processor can take on control tasks without requiring an external controller. 7 interfaces USB, 2 x SPI, 2 x RS-232 and 2 x I²C. 4 analogue inputs, PWM output, 16 digital I/O, SD card and analogue video camera input.

Harwin’s Gecko-SL series shows all the
attributes mandated for space deployment Featuring compact low-profile form factors, plus a rugged but ultra- lightweight construction, Harwin’s Gecko Screw-Lok (SL) connectors are highly optimised for space deployment. These 1.25mm pitch high contact density components exhibit strong shock (100g/6ms on Z axis) and vibrational (20g/2000Hz) resilience, as well as being able to cope with extreme acceleration (40g) and temperatures spanning all the way from -65°C to +150°C. The resulting high levels of operational reliability have led to them being designed
into a multitude of satellite and nanosatellite projects in recent years. In addition to their physical robustness, these components possess industry-leading outgassing properties. Consequently, they do not present a risk to the constituent electronic circuitry – performing far better than connector solutions from other suppliers when subjected to vacuum conditions and fully conforming with the most rigorous of NASA tests relating to this.

Innovative Snaptac™ miniature snap fit connector series
from Smiths Interconnect - now available from Aerco Featuring High Reliability Hyperspring spring-loaded hyperboloid contacts; sealed to IP67. The SnapTac®
rectangular miniature snap fit connectors from Smiths Interconnect is a lightweight, robust, high durability, quick release connector, offering exceptional signal integrity and designed to meet demanding operational specifications, such as those required in Future Combat Soldier programs, including communication, identification/recognition, and other critical tasks.
The connector series is available in both circular (7, 13, 19 ways) and rectangular (12, 21, 30 ways) geometries, with the plugs available in versions with or without over-moulding, while the receptacle offers straight through and solder cup termination styles. Circular extenders (7, 13, 19 ways), with and without over-moulding, are also available for applications requiring in-line connections. Eight housing polarizations are supported to avoid connector mismatching and a 90° over-moulded version is also available for the circular plug connector.
The locking mechanism is easy and fast, with the circular connector range featuring a snap on locking arrangement. The 12 and 21 way rectangular connectors have a push pull locking, with the 30 way version employing a quick turn locking mechanism.
A key innovation with the Snaptac®
which are designed to protect the electrical interface against extreme environmental conditions. For the first time, Smiths have combined their hyperboloid contact technology with the mechanical features of a spring loaded plunger. This compressible contact arrangement produces mated connectors with improved signal integrity, high reliability and proven parametric stability over time and realises characteristics of very low and stable contact resistance, high current carrying capability and extremely low wear mechanisms.
