Absolute Encoder Series Adds Multi-Turn Output Option CUI’s Motion Group today announced that its AMT21 series of absolute modular encoders has added models with multi-turn output capability. Offering 12 bits or 14 bits of absolute position information, the multi-turn AMT21 series implements a 14-bit signed number turns counter for applications rotating beyond 360 degrees. These features provide users with the ability to keep track of position even during power down conditions, while the turns counter can be maintained via a battery backup, eliminating the need for a homing sequence. Based on CUI’s patented capacitive ASIC technology, the AMT21 series is highly durable and accurate with resilience to the dirt, dust, and oil typically found in motion applications. Its high-speed RS-485 protocol for fast and low latency position data is accompanied by a low current draw of 8 mA at 5 V and a compact package with locking hub for ease of installation. Boasting accuracy of ±0.2 mechanical degrees, the AMT21 series further carries an

Flex Power Modules boosts portfolio for RFPA applications with PKB-D 250W DC-DC converter Flex Power Modules announces the PKB4216HDPI, the latest model in its series of DC-DC converters aimed at Radio Frequency Power Amplifier (RFPA) applications in the telecom market segment. Following on from the recently introduced 750W PKJ4000 series, the PKB-D is a high-density converter in the industry standard eighth- brick format with an output of 50V at 5A, and an input voltage range of 36 to 60V. This makes it ideal for 50V GaN based RFPA’s and also high voltage LDMOS applications. The PKB4216HDPI has a wide output voltage adjustment range of 40 – 55VDC allowing for easy optimization of the connected RF section, with typical efficiency peaking at 94.5% at 48Vin and full load.
