  • New Product – Mouser Now Shipping TE Connectivity’s Dynamic D8000 Pluggable Connectors, Offering High Current Capacity for Factory Automation and Robotics

Mouser is now stocking the Dynamic D8000 pluggable connectors from TE Connectivity. The Dynamic D8000 pluggable connectors feature high current capacity, including 1000 VDC rated voltage, 3000 VAC withstand voltage, and 100 A current per pin. These connectors are available as both wire-to-wire (WTW) and wire-to-board (WTB) modules with two-position construction. The pluggable connectors employ an audible lock design to ensure safe and reliable locking, while crimping contacts save valuable assembly time for device designers. Boasting 58 N per-pin mating and unmating forces, the connectors feature silver plating on the mating surface with a polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) and high-temperature nylon housing. These reliable, high-performance connectors support a range of applications, including battery management systems, battery test equipment, factory automation and robotics.

  • New Product – Mouser Now Shipping Nordic Semiconductor’s Thingy:53 Platform, Enabling Rapid Prototyping of Wireless Devices with ML Capabilities

Mouser is now stocking the Thingy:53 rapid prototyping platform from Nordic Semiconductor. Integrating a range of sensors for light, motion, sound, and environmental factors, the Thingy:53 platform provides an ideal solution for building prototypes and proofs-of-concept. This product is based on the nRF5340 dual-core Arm® Cortex® M-33 system-on-chip (SoC), and the nRF Edge Impulse mobile app enables embedded machine learning (ML) for prototype devices. The platform’s ML capabilities support a range of applications, including voice recognition and movement pattern detection. This product features a complete range of sensors and peripherals to support Internet of Things (IoT) application development. The platform’s environmental sensor measures air pressure, air quality, humidity, and temperature in real time, while the low-power accelerometer supports a broad range of motion detection functions. The Thingy:53 platform boasts power management features provided by the nPM1100 power management IC (PMIC), an onboard nRF21540 front-end module (FEM) for wireless connectivity and an integrated power amplifier/low noise amplifier (PA/LNA) range extender. The platform’s ML capabilities enable exceptional low-power performance. The platform includes a debug and current measurement board, allowing engineers to monitor power consumption and troubleshoot application code quickly.

  • New Product – Mouser Now Shipping NXP’s Edge-Ready SLN-VIZNAS-IOT Solution, Providing Facial Recognition with 3D Liveness Detection

Mouser is now stocking the SLN-VIZN3D-IOT development kit for facial recognition from NXP Semiconductors. The SLN-VIZNAS-IOT enables developers to quickly and easily add facial recognition with 3D liveness detection to their products, particularly in the smart home and security markets. The development kit leverages a high-performance 3D structured light module (SLM) camera combined with the i.MX RT117F crossover processor to deliver the performance and security of facial recognition with 3D Liveness detection at the edge. This edge-ready solution addresses the privacy concerns and latency associated with cloud-based implementations. The SLN-VIZN3D-IOT delivers reliable 3D facial recognition in indoor and outdoor applications across varied lighting conditions, including difficult lighting conditions that are challenging for traditional facial recognition systems. Using a 3D SLM camera enables advanced liveness detection, helping distinguish a real person from spoofing techniques, such as a photograph, imitator mask or a 3D model, to prevent unauthorised access. The SLN-VIZN3D-IOT development kit features fully integrated turnkey software for quick out-of-the-box operation, minimising time to market, risk, and development effort. The development kit also includes remote registration capability, allowing end-users to register their faces from mobile devices.
