F&S introduces new form factor efus
F&S is now a Proven Partner in Freescale’s
Connect Partner Program; your essential
source for embedded designs based on Frees-
cale solutions. The F&S profile on the Frees-
cale Website offers a detailed overview of how
we contribute to the partner ecosystem.
F&S Elektronik Systeme now offers the new
COM formfactor “efus”. The new standard
„EasyLayout“ guarantees a low cost carrier
board. EasyLayout describes the concept of
no crossing lines or avoidable through holes.
The chosen plug connector frees up valuable
space on the bottom side of the module. The

Tektronix: 6-in-1 oscilloscope
at electronica
Tektronix will be showcasing a wide range of
test and measurement products at electronica.
The Tektronix stand will feature four work-
stations: Power, Automotive and Embedded
Design, Education, Research. Visitors to the
Tektronix stand will be able to get hands-on
demonstrations and technical advice from our
experts to help them with their test and mea-
surement challenges.
Highlights on the Tektronix stand will include
the MDO3000 Series, the ultimate integrated
oscilloscope, that includes a spectrum ana-
lyzer, logic analyzer, protocol analyzer, arbi-
trary function generator and digital voltmeter.
The MDO3000 clears the design bench of
costly, specialized equipment and provides
the tools needed to test and debug virtually
any embedded design. In addition, Tektronix
has developed the MDO3000 to be completely
customizable enabling customers to select the
functionality and performance needed now -
and later.
The TBS1000B-EDU series are the first oscil-
loscopes in the industry with an integrated
courseware system designed to help stu-
dents learn more efficiently and effectively
while minimizing the time instructors need
to spend preparing and conducting lab ses-
sions. With integrated courseware, instructors
can make their lab exercise content viewable
on the oscilloscope and students can conve-
niently capture lab results straight from the
instrument.
Also on show is the Keithley Parametric
Curve Tracer Configurations on the 2600- /
4200-PCT Series, recently enhanced with the
new High Power Interface Panel Model 8020,
deliver reliable and quick results on compre-
hensive high power semiconductor I-V and
C-V testing. The 8020 now expands actual I-V
and C-V characterization solutions by high
power I-V and high voltage C-V at wafer-level.

Pentair: Interscale platform, MTCA
and ATCA systems at electronica
At this year’s electronica, Pentair will pres-
ent new and enhanced products from ist
Schroff brand. On centre stage is the Inter-
scale case platform, as well as MicroTCA
and AdvancedTCA systems, subracks and
electronics cabinets. Pentair’s innovative
Interscale case platform brings flexibility to
engineers working with non-standardised or
small form factor designs. With three levels
of case options available – standard, mod-
ified and fully-customised – the Interscale
case platform satisfies a wide spectrum of cus-
tomer requirements.
During the show, Pentair will demonstrate
ist new online Interscale M configurator that
helps ease design of individual cases – for both
prototyping and production quantities. By
following a step by step approach, users of the
configurator can customise the case with the
desired accessories and requirements – from
quantity, delivery date, size, colour, cutouts
and printing – with a free, detailed quotation
provided within 48 hours.
Pentair’s AdvancedTCA system has also
undergone further development with the
inclusion of smaller systems with front-
to-back cooling to ist ATCA 450/40 fam-
ily. A new 48 V DC version of the 2-slot
AdvancedTCA system will be unveiled during
the show, which features front-to-back cool-
ing to achieve up to 450 W cooling per slot,
as with the current 14-slot systems. Pentair is
also working on enhanced front-to-back cool-
ing for ist 6-slot AdvancedTCA system.
Pentair will also present ist Schroff Varistar
and Schroff Novastar 19“ cabinet platforms.
Using the three-level service concept – stan-
dard, modified and fully-customised – indi-
vidual cabinets can be configured to satisfy the
requirements of a wide variety of applications.
For the first time, the Schroff Park2Power
charging system will also be on display.
This system offers everything that a public,
commercial or private user demands of a
charging station for electric vehicles. With
ist variable configuration options and three
product versions, the Park2Power charging
system has the flexibility to meet a wide
range of requirements both in terms of cost
and performance. The charging, authori-
sation, payment, communication and con-
trol modules can be expanded, changed or
updated at any time.
