The Bergquist Company announced its 5-wire resistive touch screens onto the European market. These touch screens are available in a wide range of sizes and aspect ratios; a variety of shielding options can be applied to them, such as EMI (Electro-Magnetic Interference), RFI (Radio Frequency Interference) and ESD (Electro-Static Discharge). The Bergquist solution combines the durability of 5-Wire resistive technology with flexible offerings to meet the specific requirements of a wide range of applications. Options include a large range of sizes from 3,5 inch" to 23 inch, slim perimeters, off aspect ratio sizes, chemical strengthened glass and other alternatives, as well as a variety of top film and a large selection of connectors. The touch screen design allows developers to convert easily from 4- and 8-Wire into 5-Wire, whether it is a new design or retrofit.

 A kit to help designers evaluate the features and benefits of the Bergquist 5-Wire touch system products can be requested online. This kit includes a 5-Wire Touch Screen, a 5-Wire Controller Board, Software & Device Drivers, an RS-232 Connector Cable, a USB Connector Cable, 5-Wire Touch Screen Connector Cable, Jumper Extension Cable, Power Supply (RS-232 use only) and relevant instructions.

Omron has extended its range of compact bi-directional PLC splitter modules for Passive Optical Networks with a new 1x64 version. Omron P1C planar waveguide devices are suited for FTTx Passive Optical Networks, DWDM and CWDM systems, optical cable TV and other outside equipment applications. The new 1x64 version complements the existing 1x4, 1x8, 1x16 and 1x32 splitters already available. Each device in the range is a packaged optical waveguide chip based on patented plasma chemical vapour deposition (P-CVD) technology. The combination of PLC structure and P-CVD process technology provide exceptional stable optical characteristics and superior reliability compared with fused-fibre biconical taper (FBT) technology. In addition, the splitter modules exhibit low insertion loss, low polarisation dependent loss and high port uniformity. The splitters are tested to Telcordia GR1209 and GR1221. Optional custom packaging, metal fittings and connectorised cassette modules are also available.
