Industrial digital input chips provide serialized data by default. However, in systems that require real time, low latency, or higher speed, it may be preferable to provide level-translated, real-time ...

Telecom and data-communications equipment commonly use small-formfactor pluggable (SFP) modules for the physical-layer interface. Also common in these systems is an I 2 C bus for the management data ...

While learning about different types of vibration sensors for condition monitoring, I came across a cheap piezoelectric shock/tap/vibration sensor switch module hiding in a corner of my messy ...

In the previous two issues of this newsletter, we looked at troubleshooting digital input modules. Basically, we looked for the presence or absence of a voltage. With analog modules, it's trickier ...

Safety-relevant output modules as well as a logic module with expanded functional scope have been added to modules already available. Fourteen different safety-relevant function modules, from a simple ...

Many signaling proteins are built from simple, modular components, yet display highly complex signal-processing behavior. Here we explore how modular domains can be used to build an ultrasensitive ...
