Upgrade your input and swap membrane keys for PCAP

We are frequently asked if we can replace old membrane keypads with a new PCAP design. It makes sense, as the membrane design can present many problems – particularly as it ages. Simply put, membrane keys are less durable and their PET foil, which controls responsiveness, can and will break with frequent use.

Spotlight on Embedded – April 2023

Welcome to the Spring edition of Avnet Spotlight. We’ve got lots of exciting new products to update you on this month across compute, displays and from our partners, too. If you would like to know more, or have a specific embedded project you’d like to discuss, you can always contact our team – we’d love to hear from you.

PCAP in automotive applications? Yes, we can!

Capacitive sensors are great – highly reliable and have a wide range of functions. You can’t argue with their usefulness in household electronics, especially as panels in such products are becoming thinner and lighter with almost every iteration. In the automotive world, however, this isn’t exactly desirable. In this industry, sensitive sensor technology is subject to stricter requirements, both in terms of service life and environmental influences.

AUO Display+: high, customizable performance without the price tag

Thin, light, cost effective, but with industrial grade reliability and performance, AUO Display+ 15.6” integrated touch solutions are perfect for a range of indoor uses – in-flight entertainment, home automation panels, Point of Sale and kiosk applications.

By popular demand – the MipiPlus 7”. New size, same great performance

We knew the launch of MipiPlus in February would be popular, but we’ve had such a great response to the 7.84” size that we’re now adding the 7” (17.78 cm) screen size to our portfolio. Integrating MIPI display products can be a complex process, but our significant experience in the field has given plenty of customers confidence to partner with Avnet Embedded for the journey.

Small, fast and functional – meet the MipiPlus 4”

When we speak to our customers about MIPI Display products, they all agree that it’s a great interface that comes with some implementation challenges. However, working with Avnet Embedded means that they have a partner with plenty of experience in integrating MIPI into a range of industrial and medical products and our portfolio just keeps growing.

Spotlight on Embedded – March 2023

Welcome to the March issue of Avnet Embedded Spotlight. This month we’ve given a quick round up of the brilliant Embedded World show which happened in Nuremberg on the 14th – 16th March. We’re also giving you details on the latest SBCs, motherboards and more!

MipiPlus – the everyday touch display with industrial speed

Display products with MIPI (Mobile Industry Processor Interface) had previously been limited to purely high-volume consumer products, most notably smart phones. Recently, however, there has been a steady increase of MIPI products across industrial and medical applications and this has created more room for them mainly in handheld applications and sizes due to lower power requirements.
