Almost all trucks and automobiles currently utilizing internal combustion engines have fuel tanks. To the driver of the fueled motor vehicle, the most important instrument on his front panel is his fuel gauge, which must provide an accurate reading of the fuel level...
The liquid level sensors with reed technology sense level changes in liquid in an assortment of liquid mediums. The sensors generally have an attached float with an embedded magnet that moves up and down on a encased stem where the reed switches are housed. The reed switches will change their closure state when the float comes within their magnetic influence. The closure initiates a sequence of events alerting the change of the liquid level...
Design engineers today look for procuring a complete solution. If they can’t find this, they look for its component parts. This application refers to the development of a bilge pump on a boat, which senses accumulating water in the bottom of the boat, which in turn operates a pump removing the water. Currently the majority of boat companies use a mechanical float and switching system. This has been wrought with quality and reliability problems that can endanger the lives of boat owners...
When Test Equipment and Auto Test Equipment (ATE) systems are used to test discrete semiconductors they often require a switching device that can carry high-pulsed currents that do not distort the pulsed current. These pulsed currents are used to verify the device under test can handle high and/or surge currents without any degradation in performance. The high current pulse verifies that the chip is adequately bonded to its substrate. Also, at the same time, high voltages...
The SHV reed relay is a single in-line and high voltage relay or instrumentation grade reed relay supplied in a molded housing, capable of switching up to 1kVDC and breakdown voltage of 4kVDC. This high voltage reed relay series features an insulation resistance >5 x 10^12 Ω and utilizes minimum PCB area, at only 50% compared to our DIP and DIL reed relay series. It is even smaller than the former potted SIL-HV Reed Relay...
