AS5011 New EasyPoint joystick module based on contactless sensing technology
The AS5011 is a complete Hall sensor IC for smart joystick module applications to meet the low power requirements and host SW integration challenges for products such as cell phones and smart handheld devices.
Due to the on-chip processing engine, system designers are not tasked with integration complex SW algorithms on their host processor thus leading to rapid development cycles.
The AS5011 single-chip IC includes 5 integrated Hall sensing elements for detecting up to +/- 2mm lateral displacement, high resolution ADC, XY coordinate and motion detection engine combined with a smart power management controller.
The X and Y position and magnetic field information for each Hall sensor element is transmitted over a 2-wire I²C compatible interface to the host processor.
The AS5011 is available in a small 16-pin QFN package (5x5x0.55mm) and specified over an operating temperature of -20° to +80°C. Our AS5011 is the driving technology behind EasyPoint™ module concept.
This concept is based on contact-less, magnetic movement detection. Learn more about the simple use of EasyPoint™ in our demonstration video:

NXP MIFARE DESfire - first with EAL4+ rating for auto fare collection
After rigorous testing and careful evaluation, NXP's MIFARE DESFire EV1 smart card technology has received Common Criteria certification from the German Federal Office of Information Security. It is the first automatic fare collection (AFC) product to achieve the Evaluation Assurance Level (EAL) 4+ rating for security.
MIFARE DESFire EV1, the world's first fully integrated solution on the market, is already used in many public transportation networks around the world, including New Delhi, Melbourne, Oslo, Seattle, and the Sube-T system in Madrid.
The Madrid public transport network, for example, is one of largest and most complex infrastructure in the world, carrying more than 1.6 billion passengers a year across more than 40 different operators. The network includes urban buses, an underground metro system, and inter-urban trains. Using MIFARE DESFire EV1 for contactless ticketing gives passengers a very convenient way to navigate the entire system, and gives them the confidence of full security.
The Common Criteria certification validates that the promised security features are, in fact, implemented correction, and verifies the claim of providing “high resistance” against attacks. Certification is a stamp of assurance that lets system integrators compare the security quality of similar products on the market. The process also helps define the robustness of the solution over its full product life, from IC production and usage to disposal of the card.
The DESFire EV1 product is the first AFC solution to be protected against both physical and logical security attacks. As part of the independent review, the key security elements of the DESFire EV1, including cryptography, random number generation, and operating system were fully audited to ensure comprehensive protection. Moreover, as this evaluation has been conducted to ensure compliance to the standard Protection Profile for Smart Card ICs (BSI-PP-0002-2001), the product also fulfils security requirements for banking and eGovernment applications.

NEW Low Melting Point, Lead-free No clean solder paste
Low temperature (<170°C peak reflow temperature) lead-free solder pase has 3 significant process advantages:
1. Elimination of a Wave or Selective Soldering process step while preventing damage to temperature sensitive components and connectors
2. Significant reduction in reflow process cycle time
3. Reduced Energy Consumption
Alpha’s world class phase gate product development process began with a rigorous set of product specifications based on the voice of their customers. Exhaustive lab and field testing have resulted in a robust, high yield product that can solve one or more of the challenges associated with lead free, mixed technology (Surface Mount and Through Hole) soldering.

If you’re looking for the industry’s highest performing Cortex-M3 MCUs, then look no further than NXP’s LPC1700 series.
Operating at up to 100 MHz, the LPC1700 series has been confirmed by the Embedded Microprocessor Benchmark Consortium (EEMBC) as the industry’s highest performing Cortex-M3. It executes code on average 35% faster than leading Cortex-M3 competitors when running at the same clock speeds. The performance advantage is even greater when running at higher speeds.
The LPC1700 is designed to let high-bandwidth communications such as Ethernet, USB, Host/Device/OTG and CAN operate simultaneously, without bottlenecks, and has been certified by the EEMBC at 72, 100, and 120 MHz. The increased speed and efficiency are the result of NXP’s uniquely intelligent microcontroller architecture, flexible direct memory access (DMA) and best-in-market Flash.
Active offer a competitive solder sample testing service using an Optical Emission Spectrometer to determine metals in a given sample. Standard turnaround (in NZ) is about 3 days or a faster 3-4 hour service can be offered at an additional cost.
Test is performed to IANZ accreditation and ISO 17025. A full report of the sample is generated.
