Why use solid-state piezo pushbuttons?
Food safety starts with hygiene and sanitization. Common practice includes CIP (clean in process) and power washdown on food equipment. To achieve the design objectives and long-term reliability under such harsh conditions, choosing field-proven devices for your control panel is crucial. Hermitically sealed food-grade stainless-steel pushbuttons with color LED ring indication are built for food equipment to provide IP69K protection, X-ray detectability and superior durability.

DevOps and other modern CI/CD practices are being quickly adopted in enterprise software development and are making their way into the embedded world.
With the increased demands of a remote workforce, organizations are feeling the limitations of traditional CAD systems more than ever due to version control issues, crashes, and design delays. These issues prevent organizations from innovating quickly and responding to both market and customer demands, leading engineers to look for viable alternatives.
The complexity of R&D and a lack of awareness in new offerings has made migration to the cloud a slow process for engineers, scientists, and researchers. As the need for increased scale and speed persists, organizations require powerful-yet-simplified solutions that can keep up with these demands.
Traditional R&D is a time-consuming and cost intensive effort. To compete in a rapidly modernizing industry, organizations need agility in all stages of product development, from designing to prototyping to manufacturing.
Learn about the connection between signal integrity on data and clock lines, and power integrity. This application note gives a brief review of jitter measurements and terminology, including eye diagrams and jitter decomposition. It describes types of noise that impact power integrity, with special attention to power rail noise likely to cause jitter. It includes a measurement example showing the impact of ripple on a power rail tied to jitter on a clock signal.
Given that unscheduled downtime can amount to nearly a quarter of total manufacturing costs, predictive maintenance has the potential to unlock significant savings and increased productivity. In this webinar, we will introduce a new condition-based monitoring platform from Analog Devices, designed to help accelerate condition monitoring hardware, software, and algorithm development.
Composite plastic bearings are often disregarded as a viable choice in the engineering community due to the common misconception that plastic is inferior or weaker than metal. However, the truth is that plastic bearings are strong enough to outperform and outlast their metal counterparts in countless rotary, oscillating and linear applications. This white paper dives deeper into the true reliability of tribologically-optimized plastic materials and details the success of a few plastic bearing applications.
Technological innovations have enabled the design community to expand the scope of possibility and unleash their creativity. As the world is changing rapidly, designers must be able to seize the spirit of the times and imagine the future whenever inspiration comes. To do this, they need incredibly powerful tools to deliver complex solutions with reliability and precision that can be used anywhere, anytime, on any device.
