Microcontrollers in Power Electronics

This white paper explores the power supply advantages of digital microcontrollers, as well as how digital power supplies can be used to manage entire systems.

Receptacles support SCSI and FC-AL systems.

SCA-2 receptacles consist of staggered contact heights which enable hot-plugging. Alignment guides at both ends house grounding contacts and allow blindmateability. SCA-2 receptacles are installed on backplane to mate directly with SCA-2 plugs installed on disk drive. Tail configurations include through-hole pin and press-fit compliant pin. 80-pin receptacle supports SCSI-3 protocol, while 40-pin...

Interconnect System has phosphor bronze contacts.

AMPMODU Micro Interconnect System, based on high-density 0.8mm centerline contacts, is suitable for cable-to-board, cable-to-cable, and board-to-board applications. Dual row connector is available in 4 through 40 positions. F crimp for 28 AWG wire provides wire termination, and contacts terminated to 28 AWG wire are rated at 1 amp. Housings are SMT compatible UL 94V-0 LCP, and temperature rating...

Power Grip Connectors meet ANSI C119.4 specs.

UTILCO Power Grip Hot Line Connectors for high current overhead and equipment tap applications have direct drive eyebolt that is in line with V shaped jaw, creating mechanical wedge that assures constant 3-point loading on connection. Grooves in jaw serve to remove cable oxidation, thus improving integrity of connection as it is being installed. Power Grips accommodate multiple sizes of...

Convenience Outlet accommodates high current.

20A Convenience Outlet is designed for panel-mount applications and has quick snap-in configuration that offers insulation displacement connections. It will accept 20A and 15A plugs and is suitable for use in surge protectors, power outlets, and computer peripheral applications. Current capacity is up to 20A with 12 AWG solid wire at 125 Vac, 60 Hz. With 14 AWG solid wire, current capacity is up...

Encoders are available with connectors.

Accu-Coder(TM) Cube Series and model 702, 725, 758, and 225 encoders are available with Eurofast connector. Connector allows user to reduce stocking requirements for cord sets and similar components since cords can be used for encoder connections and other components of motion control systems (such as proximity sensors and photoelectric switches).

Programming Port provides access in hazardous areas.

Graceport M7 Series Div 1 hazardous location interface eliminates need to remove all bolts from NEMA 7-9 enclosure to gain programming access to devices inside. Instead, interface is installed with conduit connection to nearby NEMA 7-9 enclosure containing programmable device. Personnel obtain hot work permit and perform sniff test before programming.
