STEREO CAMERA
The smart stereo camera from Vision Components GmbH is a single-board OEM device
measuring 2.4 4 in. Its two camera heads,
which can be installed at various distances and
tilt angles, have CCD sensors of similar or different types. Image capture for either head can
be triggered externally or internally. Part of the
VCSBC64xx family, the camera has applications
in 3-D machine vision, robotics and inspection
systems.

PUMPING STATION
Applications for Pfeiffer Vacuum GmbH’s
HiCube turbo pumping station include vacuum
process technology, analysis and surface
physics, and electron beam welding. The plug-and-play system has both a turbo pump and a
dry or oil-sealed backing pump to satisfy pump-
ing requirements from 35 to 685 l/s. Depending
on the application, it also comes with a water
cooling or heating sleeve.

DIODE LASER
Alfalight Inc. has introduced an 808-nm, 0.65-
W single-emitter pump diode laser, packaged
on a 3-mm Q-mount. An integrated grating on
the laser chip provides a pump wavelength
locked on the narrow-absorption band of the
gain medium, eliminating the need for temperature control circuitry. The laser’s operation and
packaging are the same as that of a standard
laser diode. The device has applications in pico-projector and laser display systems.

LED CONTROLLER
The AS3693B LED controller integrated circuit
from austriamicrosystems AG manages 16 LED
channels, each with a current accuracy of 0.5%,
enabling high color and brightness control.
Three free configurable dynamic power feedback circuits make it useful for both white LEDs
and color backlights. For use in LCD TV sets, the
device offers features including “reverse PWM.”
It is available in an ePTQFP64 10 10-mm
package.
