TE Connectivity to Unveil Advanced Connectivity and Sensor Solutions at Electronica
Recent Acquisitions Expand Range of Sensor Solutions
Breaking Ground in the Areas of Autonomous Driving, the Connected Home and More
Innovative Products for Harsh Environments
SCHAFFHAUSEN, Switzerland – TE Connectivity Ltd. (NYSE: TEL), a world leader in connectivity, is unveiling its highly engineered, cutting edge connectivity and sensor technologies at electronica, the leading trade fair for electronic components, systems and applications, in Munich, Germany, from November 11 to 14. TE will be located in hall B3 at stand 225.
As one of the largest exhibitors, TE will highlight its unmatched portfolio of intelligent, efficient and high-performing connectivity and sensor solutions that are used for customers across several industries, from automotive, industrial and commercial transportation and aerospace and defense, to industrial solutions and consumer applications. With its recent acquisition of Measurement Specialties, TE is one of the largest connectivity and sensor companies in the world, and will display and demonstrate its innovative sensor solutions that help customers transform their concepts into smart, connected creations.
Expanded Range of Sensors
TE's expanded range of sensor solutions includes the launch of the new PTH fusion sensor, which combines two sensors with distinctive MEMS technologies to measure pressure, humidity and temperature in a compact size (5x3x1mm3) for applications ranging from smartphones to home appliances to industrial. The company will also showcase its expanded range of automotive sensors, including the new vacuum brake booster sensor and the single coil resolver. TE offers one of the broadest portfolios of sensor technologies, enabling measurement capabilities that range from position, pressure, temperature, vibration and humidity, to fluid property, force/torque, liquid level, flow and photo optic.
The Road to Autonomous Driving, the Connected Home and Beyond
TE's connectors, sensors and antennas are the electronic building blocks embedded in automobiles, heavy trucks, planes, factories, buildings, appliances, mobile devices, wearables and more. TE's products connect, sense and communicate data, power and signal, increasingly enabling objects to become "smarter" as well as interconnected.
Today's automobiles already have the intelligence to actively assist the driver, with increasing levels of assistance and autonomy on the horizon. TE is at the forefront, breaking ground with technologies that will advance current Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) to an autonomous driving reality. One such area is Ethernet data bus technology, where TE has achieved 100 Mbit/s transmission rate, and has faster implementations under development.
In addition, TE offers next generation solutions that enable the connected home and the smart factory. These range from reliable wireless antennas, sensors and connectors that support smart appliances and devices in the home to TE's industrial communications platform that enables interconnectedness and automation in a factory environment.
Harsh Environments
TE's products operate within electronic and electrical systems that must withstand rigorous conditions and all weather environments, from the passenger car engine to heavy commercial transportation and industrial environments, to fighter jets. TE will demonstrate some of its cutting edge technologies including:
-- Industrial and Commercial Transportation portfolio: For trucks, buses
and off-road vehicles, the integrated Urea Quality Sensor, with magnetic
reed switch technology, provides highly reliable and robust diesel
exhaust fluid (DEF) heating and accurate liquid level, temperature and
quality measurements, in extreme conditions.
-- ARISO Contactless Connectivity Platform: With ARISO contactless
connectivity, TE has developed an innovative solution that permits
extremely reliable connections. Water, dust or vibration no longer
impact the reliable delivery of power, data and signal. Due to the lack
of mechanical contact, this new technology offers rotational freedom as
well as freedom of movement - without any wear and tear.
-- Aerospace and Defense: TE's new CeeLok FAS-X connector combines rugged
reliability with signal integrity to support current, high-speed
protocols as well as the new, faster protocols on the horizon. CeeLok is
yet another innovation that exemplifies TE's commitment to harsh
environment applications.
Eric Kueppers, president of TE Global Automotive business, said, "Electronica is an important event for us, not only to highlight TE's latest technologies but also to engage and collaborate with customers. TE's presence at electronica celebrates engineering collaboration as well as the cutting edge products and solutions that result."
At the exhibit, TE will feature new materials, product showcases and an immersive experience highlighting TE engineers - the experts behind the products. The company's transparent, full-size car will feature its automotive solutions, and its SensorScape interactive experience will provide an opportunity to create custom designs using TE sensors.
