Mouser Electronics and Analog Devices Launch New E-Book Bringing Experts’ Insights on Flexible Manufacturing

April 28, 2024 – Mouser Electronics, Inc., a leading New Product Introduction (NPI) distributor focused on driving industry innovation, today announced a new eBook in collaboration with Analog Devices, Inc. (ADI), highlighting how factories can increase throughput, product quality, and cost-efficiency through flexible manufacturing methods.

In the book "10 Experts on Flexible Manufacturing", subject matter experts from ADI and other technology companies discuss how today's sensors, robotic subsystems, and AI-enabled computing units can increase factory flexibility, allowing them to adjust to manufacturing and production needs. This manufacturing approach allows factories to achieve higher throughput, product quality, and cost-effectiveness than ever before. At the same time, improved processes and controls also help achieve more sustainable manufacturing and reduce energy and material waste. This e-book also highlights several ADI products that help achieve flexible manufacturing.

The EVAL-ADTF3175D-NXZ time-of-flight (ToF) evaluation kit, available from Mouser Electronics, demonstrates the orderable ADTF3175 ToF module with ADI’s ADSD3500 image signal processor . The ADTF3175 ToF module supports a variety of industrial robotic manipulation applications such as machine vision, object avoidance, and object measurement.

GMSL™ serializer and deserializer products, such as the MAX96717 and MAX96724, are powerful and easy-to-use solutions that provide superior sensing and perception capabilities for autonomous applications. These devices allow MIPI CSI-2 cameras and sensors to be connected to the application's processor over a single cable, while providing real-time high-bandwidth forward data from the sensor, bidirectional control, and power signals. In addition, other features such as reference clocks derived from reverse signals, adaptive equalization, etc. can be used to simplify system design while maintaining extremely high data integrity.

The ADXL359 MEMS Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) is used to integrate accurate multi-axis inertial sensing into industrial systems. All necessary motion testing and calibration are completed before shipment, greatly reducing system integration time.

Data security is a critical issue in flexible manufacturing, especially given its reliance on communications. The MAXQ1065 and DS28S60 DeepCover® cryptographic controller and coprocessor are important devices for ensuring that only authorized entities can access sensitive data on the factory floor.
