THINK DIAMOND for Long-Life COM-Based SBCs

A COM-based SBC combines the flexibility of a standard computer-on-module (COM) with a baseboard offering additional I/O, expansion sockets, power supplies, and I/O connectors. The result is a highly flexible, highly expandable, feature-dense product that can be adapted to the widest range of applications and enjoys the longest possible lifecycle.

Highlights from Sensors Converge Conference

If you could not make it to Sensors Converge, here is what Micronor Sensors presented at their Booth.

Micronor Sensors is the only sensor solutions provider where fiber optic and electromechanical sensor technology solutions converge from one very experienced source.

Sensors are very broad class of components.  Our focus is solely on sensors for kinetic applications, where things are in motion or put into motion:

• Encoders and resolvers, FO or EM, to monitor rotary or linear motion and position
• Rotary or linear limit switches, FO or EM, where discrete position feedback is required
• Emergency stops, limit switches and pendants, FO or EM, where remote operator signaling is crucial
• Multi-axis FO Acceleration sensors for dynamically monitoring acceleration or vibration
• Strain or force monitoring with FBGs
• Temperature sensors, GaAs or FBGs, where high precision single point or multipoint temperature monitoring is required

P-alert Plus Tri-axial Network Accelerograph

P-alert+ is an advanced version of P-alert network accelerometer. It is reinforced in device protection to IP67, upgrading CUP computing speed, and increasing internal memory for waveform storage.

P-alert+ embeds with Pd technology developed by Prof. Yih-Min Wu of National Taiwan University (NTU). Designed to reduce earthquake damages and by Pd technology, Palert+ can determine a seismic event within 3 seconds after P waves are first detected and issue warnings depending on that estimated S waves are devastating or not.

P-alert+ provides three triggering algorithms: Pd, PGA, and STA/LTA. Pd algorithm was developed by Prof. Wu as it is described above. PGA stands for Peak Ground Acceleration. P-alert offers 10Hz, 20Hz and 40Hz low pass filters which are user configurable to filter out high frequency noise generated by non-seismic vibrations. In addition, the conventional STA/LTA algorithm is available in P-alert+, too.
