Harwin increases design choices and production flexibility with extensions to 1.27mm, 2mm and 2.54mm pitch connector ranges Harwin has extended the number of models available in its highly successful Industry Standard Connector ranges, including Harwin’s Archer M50 (1.27mm pitch), M22 (2mm pitch) and M20 (2.54mm pitch) interconnects. The range extensions bring greatly increased choice to design engineers, with the extended product offerings adding new orientations, different connector pin counts and soldering methods. Harwin expanded its choice of connection systems to suit an increased variety of PCB layouts and offer customers more flexibility. Additionally, all of the new surface mount connectors are available supplied in Tape & Reel packaging, for use with automated pick and place assembly. SMT and Throughboard additions Harwin’s Archer M50 connectors, based on 1.27mm pitch, now include a complete range of single-row pin headers and sockets, both available in through-board and surface mount options. The M22, 2mm pitch Industry Standard range has been extended with the addition of single and double row SMT horizontal sockets, plus a double row vertical SMT pin header with location legs for precise board placement. Harwin’s extended M20, 2.54mm pitch Industry Standard Connector range has seen the addition of single and double row SMT horizontal sockets, a double row vertical SMT pin header with location pegs, plus a low-profile dual-entry

COM modules with 7th generation Intel Core processors The new Kaby Lake processors are manufactured in 14 nm technology, as the former 6th generation Intel® Core™ processors, and have a similar architecture but are optimised for higher performance at the same level of power dissipation. The MSC C6C-KLU and MSC C6B-KLH module families are partly available with Intel® Celeron® and Xeon® processors as well. Designed and manufactured by MSC Technologies (an Avnet Company) in Germany, these COM Express™ modules offer at least a 7-year lifecycle from the date of introduction. The powerful MSC C6C-KLU COM Express™ modules in the Compact form factor of 95 mm x 95 mm have a typical power consumption between 17W and 19W and are suited for compact high-end embedded systems. The operating temperature ranges from 0° to 60°C. Avnet Embedded offers four variants with the dual-core processors Intel® Core™ i7- 7600U, i5-7300U, i3-7100U, and Intel® Celeron® 3965U. The on-chip Intel® HD Graphics Gen. 9 supports DirectX® 12, OpenGL 4.4., and OpenCL 2x. Hardware-based graphics acceleration and video encoding/decoding complete the feature list. Three independent displays with up to 4k x 2k resolution can be connected. The modules can be equipped
