PRODUCT SHOWCASE
New N20K48 temperature and PID controller
NOVUS Automation have released
their new N20K48 controller family,
and it’s available from Ocean Controls.
Unlike other temperature and PID
controllers with fixed I/O, the N20K48
is based on a compact, powerful core
controller plus a growing family of
clickNGo micromodules that enables
it to expand its I/O and connectivity
to meet your requirements.
The base unit has the Process controller with both USB
and Bluetooth
communications,
a single relay,
pulse output and
a 48x48mm LCD
display.
The plug-in clickNGo modules
include:
• CG-3D0 – three digital outputs
• CG-1AO – one analog output
• CG-485 – RS485 modbus RTU
interface
• CG-WIFI – WiFi module
• CG-1R16 – one relay output, 16A
• CG-3DI – three digital inputs
• CG-2R5 – two relay outputs, 5A
The native Bluetooth interface offers
simple field diagnostic and commissioning through the QuickTune
Mobile app, reducing downtime,
while the USB interface provides a
batch configuration option, optimising
workbench series production.
The QuickTune Mobile app provides the user an intuitive mobile
platform for configuration management for all controllers and micromodules on the shop floor.
The N20K48 controller has an elegant and distinctive design, featuring a large, bright and clear display,
while coming in a compact enclosure,
making it suitable for installation in
restricted spaces.

2 Series Mixed Signal Oscilloscope from Tektronix
Meet Next Gen Tek. The 2 Series
mixed signal touchscreen oscilloscope (MSO) – Tektronix’s biggest
(actually smallest) benchtop innovation in years.
Weighing in at just under 2kg, the
2 Series MSO travels light so you can
take it from your benchtop to the field
and back again. It can even come with
an optional battery pack that will keep
you going for up to eight hours of
unplugged use.
The 2 Series MSO is a highly portable full-featured scope for all your
testing needs. With integrated software tools, and 1280 x 800 resolution,
10.1-inch touchscreen all in a compact package.
It has a bandwidth range of
70-500MHz, two or four analog channels and 2.5GS/s max sample rate
among many other features.

Qorvo QPF4532 integrated WiFi 6 module now at Mouser
Mouser Electronics is now shipping the QPF4532 WiFi 6 integrated
front end module (FEM) from Qorvo.
It is designed for the latest WiFi 6
(802.11ax) systems such as residential
gateways, wireless routers,
access points and Internet
of Things (IoT).
The QPF4532 integrates a 5GHz power
amplifier, single-pole,
two-throw switch and
bypassable low noise
amplifier into a single
compact form factor device.
siliconchip.com.au
The QPF4532’s performance is
focused on optimising the power
amplifier for a 3.3V supply voltage to
conserve power consumption, while
maintaining the highest linear output
power and leading-edge throughput.
The receive path design maximises
sensitivity with the noise figure performance as low as 2dB.
The QPF4532 features integrated
die-level filtering for second and third
harmonics as well as 2.4GHz rejection for dual-band, dual-concurrent
operation.
For application feedback, a DC
Australia's electronics magazine
power detector is integrated into the
halogen- and lead-free package to provide voltage that is proportional to the
output power from the transmit path.
An evaluation board is stocked by
Mouser for rapid prototyping. Visit
www.mouser.com/new/qorvo/qorvoqpf4532-wifi-6-front-end-module/ to
learn more about the QPF4532.
