PRODUCT SHOWCASE
Prototyping that Fits!
Copper Clad Design Co’s line of proto-boards allows
projects to directly fit in an enclosure, no glue or hassle,
saving time and giving a more professional appearance.
These proto-boards boast a new hybrid of ‘strip’ and ‘dot
board’ prototyping methods resulting in fewer cut traces,
greater ease in connections or opting traces into power rails.
Greater accessibility to power rails coupled with opt-in
traces lessens the number of wire links needed. These benefits in time savings and in ease of project assembly help
all makers from beginners to students and professionals.
Each proto-board suits a large range of enclosures and
components; Arduinos, Raspberry Pis, various modules, etc.
Time is money, and our designs give that back along with
Qorvo QPF4219 Front End Module
for IoT WiFi 5
Mouser Electronics,
Inc is now stocking the
QPF4219 front end module (FEM) from Qorvo.
Designed for Internet of
Things (IoT) systems based
on Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac), the
2.4GHz FEM offers a compact form factor and integrated matching to minimise layout area in applications such
as wireless routers, residential gateways, and access points.
Qorvo’s QPF4219 FEM integrates a 2.4 GHz power amplifier (PA), regulator, single-pole double-throw (SPDT) switch,
low noise amplifier (LNA) with bypass mode, and voltage
power detector into a single device. The device focuses performance on optimizing the PA for a 5V supply voltage by
conserving power
consumption while

Inductive sensors replace Hall effect devices
Offering significant advantages over existing Hall effect and other
magnetic sensors, our sensor interface ICs measure linear, angular/rotation, proximity and/or displacement in electromechanical
systems found in a variety of automotive, industrial, aerospace
and commercial applications.
They are excellent solutions for high-reliability and safety-critical automotive position sensor applications, such as automobile
throttle body, transmission gear sensing, electronic power steering and accelerator pedals.
These unique magnetic field sensors give accurate position
measurements, are

How Scams Work!
Scams remain a billion dollar business because people
keep falling for them. Malicious internet users are increasingly exploiting social networks, SMSs, registration, subscription and feedback forms on websites to insert spam
content or phishing links.
A newly-founded website called How Scams Work has
four built-in scam simulators, including an email, SMS,
and two phishing scam simulators.
These simulators are designed to help people understand in detail what to do when they encounter a scam.
Each simulator uses identical teachings and methods
that security writers speak and talk about regularly but

with a more direct and interactive way.
Leading cybersecurity firm Kaspersky is working with
How Scams Work to help promote this newly created site.
In a recent analysis from Kaspersky, after Brazil, Australia
had the second largest share of users attacked by phishers (with 17.20%).
Attackers will continue to use social networks to achieve
their goals which calls for more vigilant choices to be
made by consumers when it con- Contact:
