Device Programmer Targets Flash-Memory Market

BPM Microsystems will showcase the 3000FS fine-pitch automated device programmer, designed for flash-memory programming, on Adaptsys' stand at the National Electronics Week show. The show will take place pn 18-19 May at the National Exhibition Centre in Birmingham. With production throughput up to 1,100 devices per hour, the 3000FS combines the best qualities of BPM Microsystems' 3000 series device-handling system with its latest Flashstream programmer site technology, to produce the fastest production solution for flash memories.

The 3000FS can produce a fully programmed 512Mb NAND flash every 3.4sec. On-the-fly vision centring allows the 3000FS to handle almost every semiconductor package on the market, including TSOP, BGAs, while maintaining full handling throughput. The 3000FS offers flexible options for input and output media, with choices of tube, tray or tape, and is capable of programming 2GB in 21sec.

This is due to the creation of a proprietary co-processor technology developed by BPM - Vector Engine Co-Processor. This technology gives the Flashstream a low programming overhead while maintaining a high-production-quality programming signal. BPM Micro offers a full line of device programmers, including Universal Programmers, Concurrent Programming Systems and Fine-Pitch Automated Programming Systems.

What is Class I Division 2?

Image
A Class I Division 2 is a location: (1) In which volatile flammable gases, flammable liquid-produced vapors, or combustible liquid-produced vapors are handled, processed, or used, but in which the liquids, vapors, or gases will normally be confined within closed containers or closed systems from which they can escape only in case of accidental rupture or breakdown of such containers or systems or in case of abnormal operation of equipment, or (2) In which ignitable concentrations of flammable gases, flammable liquid-produced vapors, or combustible liquid-produced vapors are normally prevented by positive mechanical ventilation, and which might become hazardous through failure or abnormal operation of the ventilating equipment. Class I Division 2 Classification Class I Division 2 refers to the ANSI/ISA 12.12.01 standard. This standard was previously UL1604 until UL recommended the newer ANSI/ISA standard be used and that all hazardous location products be certified under this standa

FUSE SIZING CONSIDERATIONS FOR HIGHER EFFICIENCY MOTORS

Image
When selecting the proper fuse for short circuit protection in motor starting applications, it is important to not only ensure that the fuse will not nuisance open during motor start up times, but also that the fuse will coordinate as required with overload relays. When sizing fuses between 125% and 150% of the motor nameplate current, several advantages, including ease of coordination with an overload device, a smaller disconnect, and increased short circuit protection from a lower fuse rating, can be achieved. However, if sizing at this level prevents the motor from starting, it may then be necessary to increase the fuse ampere rating and it then becomes important to know the NEC sizing limitations. As of June 1, 2016, the US Department of Energy has mandated that newly manufactured electric motors will need to meet NEMA Premium® efficiency standards. As motor efficiencies increase, motor locked rotor currents can also be expected to increase. In addition to this, with across-the-lin

7/8 16UN Connectors that Provide 600 Volts and 15 Amps

TURCK announces new A-Size 3 and 4-pin 7/8 16UN powerfast™ connectors that provide up to 600 Volts and 15 Amps of power. These IP67 rated connectors provide a modular wiring system designed to handle high current applications for machine power distribution, while providing resistance to vibration commonly associated with conveyors, motors and material handling applications. The cordsets are available with a tray rated, exposed run PVC flexlife ® cable, with or without STOOW rating, and 14 AWG wires that allow you to replace hard wiring with a robust, quick disconnect system that saves the time and money spent installing a conduit system. The A-Size powerfast line offers male and female, straight connectors, standard and custom lengths, and pigtails or extensions. To make the system complete, fully encapsulated mating receptacles, with 1/2”-14 NPT mounting threads are available.
