New Product: Cylinder position sensors
BIMUNT universal magneticfield sensors detect piston position on standard pneumatic cylinders.

The BIMUNT is highly immune to EMC and polarity protected, with reliable switching points and fast response. The device uses magnetoresistive technology that reportedly improves performance over traditional cylinder position sensors. In addition, the sensing face is in the front of the sensor to aid in detecting short-stroke cylinders. A quick-mount tab helps seat the sensor in a cylinder groove, and the sensors install in T-groove, dovetail, and tie-rod pneumatic cylinders. Accessories include precision mountings and wire-strain-relief products.

Alien Technology RFID
As RFID expands into more applications, the simple knowledge that a given tag was seen at a certain read point is sometimes inadequate. For some applications we’d like to know more. Was the tag moving or stationary? Which direction? How fast? How far away? Alien Technology's new Intelligent Tag Radar (ITR) provides this and other information about the tag. This capability enables the RFID...
New Analog to Digital Converter Technology
From the labs at Analog Devices comes a new technology in analog to digital converter technology that is the culmination of three years work.

RFID "Sniffer" Architecture
As RFID adoption continues to grow, engineers are faced with an increasing need to validate tags both for interoperability with products from other vendors and for conformance with the specified protocol. The "sniffer" RFID tag test system uses a vector signal analyzer to “sniff” the air interface between an interrogator and a tag. This system uses a reference “gold” reader or RFID simulator...
