ANAHEIM, CA - The ZoomingADC™ by XEMICS ( MountainView, CA, + 650 - 428 -
0600, www.xemics.com), lets you ''zoom in '' on a portion of the signal, and
apply the full resolution of the converter to it. Thus, the converter can
compensate for large offsets on a small signal without saturation or resolution
losses. A differential signal path allows the converter to capture both single
and differential signals. It handles signal-ended signals by adding controlled
offset.
The awards recognize innovative new products that will have strong impact in the sensing industry. Five winners were selected from 15 finalists by the editors of Sensors magazine, the leading publication in the sensors industry for over 16 years. The ceremony is co-sponsored by Sensors magazine and Advanstar Communications.
OTHER WINNERS:
The Smart Washer by Bokam Engineering (Santa Ana, CA, 714 513 2200, www. bokam.com) A solid stainless steel element with no moving parts, it looks like a conventional washer or standoff, but when it's inserted under the head of a bolt or fastner, its embedded strain-sensitive materials can detect force that the fastner exerts.
The ispPAC80 by Lattice Seminconductor (Hillsboro, OR, 503-268-8000, www.latticsemi.com) an insystem programmable filter hardware (software combination that allows the use of thousands of filters. You can configure it on the board using a PC or the embedded microprocessor, and once that's done, switch between 2 filters on the fly.
The Palm-SPEC by Ocean Optics (Dunedin, FL, 727-733-2447, www.oceanoptics.com) 6-inch x 4.5 inch spectrophotometer that interfaces with a palm-size PC.
The Passive Diamagnetic Levitation System (by SRI Internationl), marketed by Quadrant (Sunnyvale, CA, 8000-474-3589, www.quad-tech.com) Technology Corp. It enables passive transport, involving no friction and thus generates no particulates, and it can handle payloads up to 30lbs.
