2nd Generation Intel® Core™i7/i5 Mobile Processor Mini-ITX with Extended HD Graphics Performance

Advantech, the embedded platform and integration services provider, is happy to announce AIMB-272, a new industrial-grade, Mini-ITX motherboard supporting the latest Intel® Core™i7/i5/i3 and Intel® Celeron® mobile processors with FCPGA 988 socket. Intel® Core™i7/i5/i3 and Intel® Celeron® mobile series processors feature intelligent performance, power efficiency, and integrated Intel® HD Graphics with DX10 support. AIMB-272 is capable of SATA RAID 0, 1, 5 & 10 to ensure reliable storage and system protection for network-intensive applications.

A number of hardware-assisted support tools designed to optimize the performance, graphics, and security capabilities of the AIMB-272 are available to improve management of the motherboard. Intel® Turbo Boost Technology is a Microsoft® Windows® sidebar gadget which provides a simple display of processor frequency, and improves performance by allowing processor cores to run at higher frequencies within the available thermal envelope. Intel® Hybrid Multi-monitor enables concurrent function of an integrated Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) alongside a discrete GPU solution, allowing for operation of more than two independently-driven displays. AIMB-272 is certified for Intel® vPro™ Technology, a set of tools that enable IT departments to better manage, maintain, and secure their business PCs with network filtering, client isolation,security agents and anti-virus protection. Finally, remote power-up capabilities assist managers with easy deployment of patches and asset management.

AIMB-272 comes with high connectivity and expansion options including: one PCIe x16 expansion slot, six serial ports, two SATA III 600 MB/s connectors, one CFast SATAII connector, eight USB 2.0 ports, dual-display output with several display output interface options: VGA, DVI, HDMI (V1.4 for 3D Blu-ray stereoscopic 3D playback) and LVDS (LVDS supports 3.3v, 5v, and 12v for 24-bit/48-bit single/dual channel large size panels). AIMB-272 also comes with software RAID 0, 1, 5 and 10 support, offering abundant data storage and reliable data protection, and dual PCI Express based Gigabit (Intel® 82579LM and 82583V) Ethernet ports delivering up to 1000 Mbps of bandwidth for network-intensive applications. All this connectivity is packed into a space-saving, power-efficient, and cost-effective Mini-ITX form factor.

FUSE SIZING CONSIDERATIONS FOR HIGHER EFFICIENCY MOTORS

Image
When selecting the proper fuse for short circuit protection in motor starting applications, it is important to not only ensure that the fuse will not nuisance open during motor start up times, but also that the fuse will coordinate as required with overload relays. When sizing fuses between 125% and 150% of the motor nameplate current, several advantages, including ease of coordination with an overload device, a smaller disconnect, and increased short circuit protection from a lower fuse rating, can be achieved. However, if sizing at this level prevents the motor from starting, it may then be necessary to increase the fuse ampere rating and it then becomes important to know the NEC sizing limitations. As of June 1, 2016, the US Department of Energy has mandated that newly manufactured electric motors will need to meet NEMA Premium® efficiency standards. As motor efficiencies increase, motor locked rotor currents can also be expected to increase. In addition to this, with across-the-lin

What is Class I Division 2?

Image
A Class I Division 2 is a location: (1) In which volatile flammable gases, flammable liquid-produced vapors, or combustible liquid-produced vapors are handled, processed, or used, but in which the liquids, vapors, or gases will normally be confined within closed containers or closed systems from which they can escape only in case of accidental rupture or breakdown of such containers or systems or in case of abnormal operation of equipment, or (2) In which ignitable concentrations of flammable gases, flammable liquid-produced vapors, or combustible liquid-produced vapors are normally prevented by positive mechanical ventilation, and which might become hazardous through failure or abnormal operation of the ventilating equipment. Class I Division 2 Classification Class I Division 2 refers to the ANSI/ISA 12.12.01 standard. This standard was previously UL1604 until UL recommended the newer ANSI/ISA standard be used and that all hazardous location products be certified under this standa

7/8 16UN Connectors that Provide 600 Volts and 15 Amps

TURCK announces new A-Size 3 and 4-pin 7/8 16UN powerfast™ connectors that provide up to 600 Volts and 15 Amps of power. These IP67 rated connectors provide a modular wiring system designed to handle high current applications for machine power distribution, while providing resistance to vibration commonly associated with conveyors, motors and material handling applications. The cordsets are available with a tray rated, exposed run PVC flexlife ® cable, with or without STOOW rating, and 14 AWG wires that allow you to replace hard wiring with a robust, quick disconnect system that saves the time and money spent installing a conduit system. The A-Size powerfast line offers male and female, straight connectors, standard and custom lengths, and pigtails or extensions. To make the system complete, fully encapsulated mating receptacles, with 1/2”-14 NPT mounting threads are available.
