 Here
in Upstate NY we are blessed to have been spared the wrath of superstorm
Sandy, but we extend our thoughts and prayers to those in the region who
were less fortunate.
Like most companies, we send out our latest news on Facebook, Twitter,
and LinkedIn, since they often reach different audiences. We
recently added Google+ to our social media lineup and we invite you to
follow us, especially since we'll be placing exclusive specials on
our Google+ page! For example, we are currently offering a
significant discount on an Owon 8102. We are tying this month's
drawing to our Google+ followers. The drawing is going to be for
something a little bigger than usual - a $299.00 30MHz Owon SDS5032E oscilloscope! So if
you have a Google+ account, or if you've been thinking about creating
one, please follow Saelig and see the
instructions for the drawing near the end of this newsletter.

Amplicon Sandy Bridge IPCs, Ethernet Extenders and
Rackmount Consoles
|
|
 Amplicon's Ventrix and Impact-R industrial PCs now include Sandy Bridge Intel®
iCore processing technology, which brings increased processor performance
and the power of SATA III, USB3.0 and iAMT v7 to the industrial market.
This means increased data speeds, optimal performance and remote
maintenance capability. To learn more about Intel Active Management see
Amplicon's iAMT whitepaper.
 CL1314 Six new Ethernet extenders provide many
valuable new features such as multiple integrated Ethernet switch ports,
PoE+ support, and remote management functionality. All of Amplicon's
Ethernet extenders have been designed to transparently extend networks
over pre-installed legacy cable runs. With the clever use of DSL
technology, these extenders break the 100m range limitation of standard
Ethernet, reaching distances of up to 7km, making them a real alternative
to costly fiber installation.
 Amplicon's popular KwikDraw rackmount consoles include a new 16-port
KVM adapter which can be used to cascade control of up to 128 industrial
PCs. KwikDraw units are constructed from high grade steel with a
quality paint finish; giving the units a smooth, sleek design. They
utilize "Grade-A" Samsung LCD panels for long-life and a clear
and sharp picture output. All KwikDraw units come with either
PS/2 or USB cables, an industrial rugged keyboard with touchpad plus a
user friendly On-Screen-Display (OSD) housed in a compact 1U design with
easy cabinet installation.

USB
to SDIO Host Interface IC
|
|
 Quite
a few companies have been selecting our VUB300 recently for their SDIO
design needs. The VUB300 is a single-chip USB to SDIO host
controller interface bridge that allows SDIO and SD compliant devices to
be connected to any host PC via the Universal Serial Bus. Aimed at
volume manufacturers needing to add SD capabilities, the VUB300's SDIO
Host function conforms to SD/SDIO specifications with a generic USB
"wrapped" interface to extend SDIO host controller support to
the USB bus. VUB300's drivers integrate with the generic SDIO set
and interface with the USB host controller drivers, optimized for high
speed data transfer. With a USB2.0 Hi-Speed connection, transfers of up
to 480 Mbps are possible, and VUB300 is backward-compatible with
Full-Speed USB2.0 and USB1.1. Applications for VUB300 include:
PC motherboards, Express cards, USB Dongles, Embedded PCs, UMPC,
SmartPhones, etc. Supported operating systems include: Linux, Windows
2000, Windows XP Windows Vista 32, Windows Vista 64, Windows 7, Windows
