Compact Splice Boxes for Future-Proof Data Transmission

Phoenix Contact

 

September 28, 2018

New splice boxes extend the Phoenix Contact FO range. The FDX 20 series splice boxes ensure continuously reliable data transmission in real time.

With their compact and uniform design, the splice boxes provide ample interior space for the secure connection of fiber optics. They are available in connection versions with 6x ST duplex, 6x SC duplex, 6x E-2000®- (LSH), or 12x LC duplex connections. The patented pigtail tray in the device interior enables the convenient splicing of the FO conductors, and enable minimum and yet safe bend radii. The ready-to-splice pre-assembly significantly reduces mounting times, and improves the clarity of the splice boxes in the control cabinet, thanks to the intuitive front operation and consistent product design.

    Littelfuse Expands Magnetic Sensor Portfolio with High-Precision TMR Angle Sensors

    Littelfuse has announced the launch of two new TMR-based magnetic angle sensors – the LF53466 and LF53464 – designed to deliver high-precision 0–360° angular measurement in harsh environments with minimal thermal drift. Both sensors utilize Tunneling Magnetoresistance (TMR) technology in a dual push-pull Wheatstone bridge configuration, each featuring four high-sensitivity sensing elements, which enable accurate angle detection along the X and Y axes. These sensors offer a compelling alternative to Hall-effect devices by providing exceptional thermal stability, wide supply voltage compatibility, and enhanced measurement precision. The LF53466, housed in a standard TSSOP8 package, offers precision angle sensing with an error of less than 0.8° in the 200–800 Gs magnetic field range. It is ideal for industrial and automotive applications that benefit from stronger mechanical solder joints and ease of inspection—such as steering wheel angle sensors, pedal position sensors, and contactless potentiometers. The LF53464, available in a compact LGA8L package, achieves even greater accuracy—angle error below 0.6°—while enabling wider airgap capability and compatibility with smaller, lower-cost magnets. It is well-suited for space-constrained applications such as rotary encoders, knob and valve position sensing, and consumer devices including power tools and appliances.
