Mechanical Product: Pressure-Medium Bushings
ETP Express bushings lock components to keyless shafts by pressurizing a medium inside the double-walled bushing sleeve and flange.

The walls of the bushing expand and clamp components to shafts with a precision of less than 0.0008-in. runout. The pressure is adjusted by means of a radially oriented Allen screw.

The bushings handle torques from 39 to 6,416 lb-ft and axial loads from 1,506 to 47,212 lb. English diameters from 0.625 to 2 in. and metric diameters from 15 to 80 mm are available. Standard bushings are formed from hardened steel. Optional stainless-steel bushings come in metric sizes from 15 to 50 mm supporting torques from 34 to 1,400 lb-ft. Both materials withstand temperatures from –22 to +180°F.

Jamison RFID Portals
Jamison's Industrial Portals Division produces heavy-duty RFID portals that are custom designed enclosures that help track products during the manufacturing process and throughout the entire supply chain. Industrial Portals design allows users to easily install and integrate any RFID hardware/software systems with dramatically lower costs than other systems.
Higgs-3 Integrated Circuit
The Alien Technology Higgs is a family of highly integrated single chip UHF RFID Tag ICs. The chips conform to the EPCglobal Class 1 Gen 2 specifications and provide state-of-the-art performance for a broad range of UHF RFID tagging applications. Higgs-3 builds on that performance foundation by offering enhanced authentication and security capabilities along with extended memory and EPC number features....
Alien Technology RFID
As RFID expands into more applications, the simple knowledge that a given tag was seen at a certain read point is sometimes inadequate. For some applications we’d like to know more. Was the tag moving or stationary? Which direction? How fast? How far away? Alien Technology's new Intelligent Tag Radar (ITR) provides this and other information about the tag. This capability enables the RFID...
New Analog to Digital Converter Technology
From the labs at Analog Devices comes a new technology in analog to digital converter technology that is the culmination of three years work. In this episode, Bill Scofield, Design Group Leader, explains the new continuous time sigma delta converter that uses an internal loop filter with no switch capacitor sampler section.
RFID "Sniffer" Architecture
As RFID adoption continues to grow, engineers are faced with an increasing need to validate tags both for interoperability with products from other vendors and for conformance with the specified protocol. The "sniffer" RFID tag test system uses a vector signal analyzer to “sniff” the air interface between an interrogator and a tag. This system uses a reference “gold” reader or RFID simulator...
