leland teschler, Executive editor According to a company called Joby Aviation, in a few years you’ll be able to summon up an air taxi on your Uber phone app for trips of 25 miles or so. And you won’t have to feel guilty about the environmental impact of your trip because the plane will actually […]
PXI, multi-cell battery simulator modules target automotive and aerospace applications
Pickering Interfaces 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 […]
10-kW TVS components offer overvoltage suppression for critical aerospace/defense apps
SSDI has released new, hermetic TVS products to offer overvoltage suppression for critical aerospace and defense applications. The ST10K100BT series delivers 10 kW of peak pulse power. This device was developed for a circuit breaker in a motor drive application for a space program. The TVS will protect the system by preventing parasitic inductive energy from causing […]
