ELECTRONICS: ITT Interconnect Solutions developed snap-on and ultrasonic PCMCIA I/O kits with a variety of customizable features for maximum design flexibility. The snap-fit PCMCIA kit consists of a pair of robust mechanically-assembled stainless steel card covers that provide the PC card with both torsional stiffness and excellent drop test performance, while the ultrasonic kit welds the plastic cover set around the PC card ultrasonically to create a solid protective shell.
Both the snap-on and ultrasonic kits are secure and tamper-proof, and feature standard card end closure moldings along with the ability to accommodate specialized end caps or extension box designs. The robust 68-pin connector can withstand more than 10,000 mating cycles and multiple connector off-set options are available to suit a wide range of applications. Kits can be supplied with or without cardbus features, and high-volume production tooling is available on request.
ITT’s PCMCIA I/O kits meet all JEIDA standards and Type I and Type II PCMCIA specifications. The RoHS compliant I/O kits also provide complete EMI shielding.
Typical pricing for the PCMCIA I/O kits ranges from $1.20 to $4.50 for quantities from 5k to 100k. Lead time is from 6 to 8 weeks.
As energy efficiency becomes more and more a concern for makers of electronics devices, researchers are coming up with new ways to harvest energy from sound vibration, footsteps, and even electromagnetic fields in the air.
The government wants to study your brain, and DARPA wants to use similar information to give robots true autonomy beyond any artificial intelligence developed to date. Sound like science fiction? It's not.

A quick look into the merger of two powerhouse 3D printing OEMs and the new leader in rapid prototyping solutions, Stratasys. The industrial revolution is now led by 3D printing and engineers are given the opportunity to fully maximize their design capabilities, reduce their time-to-market and functionally test prototypes cheaper, faster and easier. Bruce Bradshaw, Director of Marketing in North America, will explore the large product offering and variety of materials that will help CAD designers articulate their product design with actual, physical prototypes. This broadcast will dive deep into technical information including application specific stories from real world customers and their experiences with 3D printing. 3D Printing is
