General Atomics to enhance the Lynx® radar Contract will provide an integrated multichannel transmit/receive subsystem for the Lynx MultiMode Radar system.


Smiths Interconnect, a leading provider of advanced multifunction subsystems, antennas, RF and MW components for Aerospace and Defense, announces a sixyear contract to deliver a highly integrated multi channel subsystem to support General Atomics Aeronautical Systems’ Lynx® MultiMode Radar in ground and maritime missions.


The Lynx radar pinpoints timesensitive targets and produces highresolution photographic imagery on a wide field ofview coverage for manned and unmanned aircraft systems.


“Our multichannel transmit and receive integrated subsystem is rugged, lightweight, compact in size and ideal for Remote Piloted Aircraft systems. We are pleased to be partnering with General Atomics to oer fast, reliable and ecient system designs for unmanned and manned aircraft worldwide,” said Ralph DeMarco, Vice President of Business Development and Sales at Smiths Interconnect Inc.

New PXI multicell battery simulator modules from Pickering Interfaces simplify voltage and current readback and improve accuracy for validating Battery Management Systems Models 41752A and 43752A target automotive and aerospace applications, including EV battery stacks


Pickering Interfaces, the leading supplier of modular signal switching and simulation solutions for use in electronic test and verification, today launched a new family of battery simulator modules, ideal for Electric Vehicle (EV) battery stack emulation in Battery Management Systems (BMS) test applications. The 41752A (PXI) and 43752A (PXIe) modules enable direct voltage and current readback either programmatically or using Pickering's soft panel control. Each cell simulator is highly accurate, specified at ±5 mV from 1 V to 7 V.


Targeting EV, automotive, aerospace, energy storage and electric aircraft applications, the new battery simulator modules occupy a single PXI slot. They are available with two, four or six battery cell simulators per module that are fully isolated from ground and from each other facilitating series connection to simulate batteries in a stacked architecture. The 750 V isolation barrier allows the modules to be used to simulate lower power battery stacks that are commonly used for vehicle propulsion. Battery charging emulation is available up to 100 mA.


Each cell provides independent power and sense connections, allowing the simulator to sense a remote load and correct for wiring losses. The battery simulator is designed to respond to dynamic loads, minimizing the need for local decoupling capacitors at the load. The module can also independently read the voltage at the load (via sense lines) and output current for each cell. When supplied with I/V readback, the driver can automatically adjust the module's output voltage through a feedback system, allowing higher accuracy.

Waterproof connectors from Selwyn Electronics


The range of products from The Interconnection Specialist, Selwyn Electronics, has evolved over the last 30 years and as a supplier to the connector and cable assembly market they oer a high level of customer service and strong engineering technical support.


Their latest is a range of waterproof connectors, which are particularly suitable E Charging systems, E bike and E Scooter this in addition the connectors for Marine and Lighting applications, although they can be used in any application requiring a low cost


solution where moisture/ dust protection is required. The range also extends to USB, RJ45, HDMI and D connectors. Their M8/M12 connectors are currently being submitted for NMEA2000 approval.


This range compliments the existing products that Selwyn have available. These include Board to Board, Cable to Board, Modular, BGA sockets and adaptors, Coax, Memory card, Terminal Blocks, Telecom/Network, SATA/SAS connectors, and custom connectors. Selwyn also have a custom cable assembly design and manufacturing service.

Inhouse manufacturing enables Danisense to meet increased industry needs for accurate current sense


transducers resulting in 50%+ business growth Currently the electronics industry worldwide is still facing component shortages resulting in long lead times and in some cases, dramatic increases in prices. However, Danisense, the leader in high accuracy current sense transducers for demanding applications, is still able to supply customers within normal lead times, thanks to the company's inhouse manufacturing, wellestablished supply chains and long experience. This is having a positive eect on Danisense’s business, and the company is on track to grow revenues by over 50% in 2021.


Commented Loic Moreau, Sales & Marketing Director at Danisense: ”One of our key markets is EVs, so we were well aware of the fast move to electrification and what that would mean both for the need for increased testing and also the likelihood of component shortages. Therefore, we anticipated the current challenging situation and increased our inventory well in advance, so now we can now still supply our customers within normal lead times. We have seen similar cycles before, such as in 2008/2009 when there was a big collapse followed by a string recovery, so we were wellprepared.”


Danisense continues to invest, developing all aspects of its business to be able to respond to the needs of its diverse customer base. Headcount has more than doubled in the last two years, especially in R&D, and the factory has been completely reorganised to streamline manufacturing.


www.danisense.com New smallsized radar motion detector


InnoSenT is raising the bar for motion detection sensors: The IMD1100 is the smallest and cheapest product developed by the radar experts so far.


The IMD1100 is a K band radar front end for typical motion controlled applications in the field of building automation and security technology. The radar front end with CW modulation also enables the speed of moving objects or persons to be detected. The integrated I/Q signalling method also enables directions to be detected. The antenna design realizes a detection range of 72° x 36° (field of view) and a typical range for the detection of people of up to 15 meters. With dimensions of just 20 x 15 x 2.7 mm, the IMD1100 is impressively small despite its array of functions and range. It’s thus easy to install in small spaces and behind plastic covers or to integrate it into existing infrastructures.


With the new product PIR & 10 GHz sensors have an additional competitor: The IMD1100 oers compelling performance, higher resolution and more functions for a comparable price. It is wellsuited for largescale use and is suitable for pick&place production. Due to the standardized frequency band, no further product variants are required.
