After setting the frequency of the tool to 140.3253 MHz with a selected 10 parts per million (PPM) tolerance, within a matter of […]
What’s new in supercapacitors for energy harvesting?
At Sensors Expo 2018, Pierre Mars, head of the applications team at Cap-XX, a supercapacitor manufacturer from Australia, explains the supercapacitor demos in their booth. Using a 800 mF supercapacitor provides the energy to power a 2.9V near-field communication (NFC) 13.5 MHz sensor puck from Silicon Labs. With the charged supercapacitor (above 2.6V) the unit […]
How can you ensure success for printed electronics?
At Sensors Expo 2018, Jaye Tyler, President and CEO of Si-Cal Technologies, an industrial screen-printing operation for advanced printed electronics, discussed how his company approaches electronic printing projects. The company prints in sheets and roll to roll screen printing processes. In sheets, they perform low volume printing very cost-effectively. In the sheet process, they can […]
What’s new in batteryless sensing?
To solve the problem of replacing batteries in ever-increasing wireless sensing applications in the Internet of Things (IoT), PsiKick has developed proprietary sensors called Smart Sense Nodes (or S2Ns) that employ ultra-low-power digital and RF circuit technologies. The S2Ns are powered by energy harvested from heat or indoor lighting that eliminates the need for a […]
