Artificial leather for touch emulation 15.04.2024

In a modern technology world where distance is becoming increasingly commonplace, maintaining connection and a sense of closeness is important. Recent developments in artificial skin by German scientists from Saarland University represent a new era in virtual interactions. German researchers from Saarland University have developed ultra-thin films that can transmit the sensation of touch over a distance. This cutting-edge technology provides new opportunities for virtual communication, especially for those who find themselves far from their loved ones. The ultra-thin films developed by the researchers, just 50 micrometers thick, can be integrated into textiles and worn like a second skin. These films act as sensors that recognize tactile signals from mom or dad, and as actuators that transmit these movements to the baby. Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>

The attractiveness of caring men 14.04.2024

The stereotype that women prefer "bad boys" has long been widespread. However, recent research conducted by British scientists from Monash University offers a new perspective on this issue. They looked at how women responded to men's emotional responsibility and willingness to help others. The study's findings could change our understanding of what makes men attractive to women. A study conducted by scientists from Monash University leads to new findings about men's attractiveness to women. In the experiment, women were shown photographs of men with brief stories about their behavior in various situations, including their reaction to an encounter with a homeless person. Some of the men ignored the homeless man, while others helped him, such as buying him food. A study found that men who showed empathy and kindness were more attractive to women compared to men who showed empathy and kindness. ... >>

New family of micropower comparators 27.05.2007

National Semiconductor, a leading provider of high-end analog signal processing products, has launched a family of micro-power, high-speed comparators. The LMH7322 is a dual comparator that has low power consumption (21 mA nominal) and a propagation delay of less than 1 ns (700 ps nominal).

The LMH7220 features LVDS (Differential Data Transfer Method) and RSPECL (Row Peak Positive Emitter Coupled Logic) outputs. National Semiconductor will begin testing a quad comparator with a specification similar to the LMH7322 in late 2007. The LMH7220 is a high speed, low power single comparator with a supply voltage range of 2,7V to 12V.

The output of the LVDS comparator provides a 325 mV signal into a 100 ohm balanced transmission line, providing a balanced output with low sensitivity to noise and EMI (electromagnetic interference) for interfacing with FPGA (programmable matrix logic chips) and A SIC (special purpose integrated circuits) having LVDS inputs. The LMH7220 has a wide output voltage range from 10V to 200mV below ground level. The LVDS signal optimizes power consumption compared to differential ECL (emitter-coupled logic) outputs.

Due to the characteristics of the output driver, power consumption remains low even as the data rate increases. The comparator is available in a miniature 6-pin TSOP package.
