Nisshinbo Micro Devices has launched the NA2100, a versatile and low-consumption voltage-to-frequency converter designed for industrial equipment. This new product aims to enhance the reliability and efficiency of signal transmission in industrial sensing applications.
- Name: NA2100
- Sample Unit Price: JPY 220 (for 100 units, tax included)
- Sample Order Start Date: July 11, 2024
- Monthly Production Capacity: 500,000 units
In industrial settings, transmitting analog signals over long distances can lead to signal degradation and increased susceptibility to noise, potentially causing equipment malfunctions. The NA2100 addresses this issue by converting analog signals into digital frequency signals proportional to the voltage, which are less prone to noise interference.
The NA2100 simplifies this process, eliminating the need for external commands and reducing the number of components required. This results in cost savings and improved signal quality, especially important in applications where the voltage measurement block and signal processing block need to be isolated for noise suppression.
