It is Saturday – and time for another New Product Roundup! This week we have three new additions and one updated product to share. Let’s jump in and have a closer look at each!
A nice set of flush cutters are a must have for assembling circuit boards – and always handy to have around! These Model 170 cutters are an economical choice. They feature a narrow cutting head, making them ideal for trimming in high density component areas. The jaw measures 11mm ( 7/16”) and will handle up to 18AWG copper wire (~1mm diameter).
For precision temperature sensing, nothing beats a Platinum RTD. This MAX31865 amplifier breakout board handles all of your RTD needs, and can even compensate 3 or 4 wire RTDs for better accuracy. Connect to it with any microcontroller or single board computer over SPI and read out the resistance ratio from the internal ADC.
An inline fuse holder is a simple way to add circuit protection directly into a power wire. This specific fuse holder is designed to work with both ATO and ATC blade fuses and is installed in series, so if there’s a short or overload, the fuse blows and cuts power. The cover helps keep out dust and moisture, making it a reliable choice for automotive, marine, and general low-voltage wiring projects. The fuse holder has 300mm of 12AWG wire and includes a 30A ATO fuse.
