Sensors and Sensor Systems Temperature Sensors (NTC) NTC Elements Applications & Cases Dec. 2021 Acoustic Data Link for through-metal identification and energy transfer TDK has developed a process in which ultrasonic waves are used to transmit data and energy with an Acoustic Data Link (ADL). These signals can even penetrate metal. In doing so, piezoelectric material components convert electrical signals into mechanical vibrations to excite acoustic waves and vice versa. This effect enables devices to be identified or sensor data to be read out, whereby the energy transmission is simultaneously possible in closed metal chambers or pipes, for example.

Transparent Conductive Film Applications & Cases Oct. 2021 [Application Note] PCB Layout for ESD Countermeasures | ESD Visualization ESD protection parts such as Chip Varistors and Zener Diodes can efficiently protect against ESD when placed close to the ESD intrusion point. However, identifying the intrusion route of ESD is difficult, and there are many instances where ESD protection parts do not perform their full potential. Because of this, for ESD protection parts to perfrom their underlying capabilities, it is necessary to identify the ESD intrusion path and mount the parts near to the ESD intrusion point. Therefore, we recently conducted a survey on the importance of mounting location using an ESD visualization system and present it here.
