Mouser Presents Expert Perspectives on Miniaturized Electronics Design in New eBook from Analog Devices and Molex
In 11 Experts on Miniaturized Electronics Design and Applications, engineers from ADI, Molex, and other companies discuss the many challenges designers face while working towards system miniaturization. The eBook also highlights several products, available at Mouser, that both ADI and Molex offer to support this transition through advances in integration, packaging, and interconnect design.
September 18, 2025 - Mouser Electronics, Inc., the authorized global distributor with the newest electronic components and industrial automation products, today announces a new eBook, in collaboration with Analog Devices, Inc. (ADI) and Molex, that explores the forefront of miniaturization trends shaping our future.
Across nearly all industries, engineers are being asked to deliver more compact designs for a wide range of purposes. Whether they are wearables for consumers and healthcare, instrumentation advances, or industrial automation solutions, today's systems are expected to occupy less space and consume less power without sacrificing performance or reliability. In 11 Experts on Miniaturized Electronics Design and Applications, engineers from ADI, Molex, and other companies discuss the many challenges designers face while working towards system miniaturization. The eBook also highlights several products, available at Mouser, that both ADI and Molex offer to support this transition through advances in integration, packaging, and interconnect design.
The EVAL-ADAQ4224-FMCZ evaluation board, available from Mouser, provides a demonstration and development platform for ADI's ADAQ4224 μModule® Data-Acquisition (DAQ) System-in-Package (SiP) solution. The ADAQ4224 DAQ integrates the critical passive components required in a data acquisition solution into a single component, using ADI's iPassives® technology, minimizing temperature-dependent error sources and offering optimized performance.
The EVAL-AD3530RARDZ evaluation board enables prototyping with ADI's AD3530 and AD3530R Digital-to-analog converters (DACs). The AD3530 and AD3530R DACs include integrated multiplexers that facilitate monitoring of output voltages, currents, and internal die temperature. The devices incorporate power-on reset (POR) circuits that ensure the DACs output power up to and present at 32kΩ to ground until a valid write is executed. The AD3530R also offers a 2.5V, 5ppm/°C internal reference that is disabled by default.
The Quad-Row board-to-board connectors from Molex feature a staggered circuit layout and a 0.175 mm pitch low-profile design for 30% space savings over conventional connectors. These patent-pending connectors offer product developers and device manufacturers greater freedom and flexibility to support compact form factors, making them ideal for augmented reality/virtual reality automotive, communications, IoT, and other space-constrained applications.
The Molex Easy-On FFC/FPC Connectors are ideal for tight packaging applications and offer an overall compact size for maximum space savings, along with contact assurance and easy operation. These connectors are provided in pitch sizes from 0.20 to 2.00 mm, circuit sizes from 2 to 96, and with actuator types that include front flip, back flip, slider, one-touch and low-insertion force, in a right-angle or vertical orientation.

FLIR Si1-LD - Industrial Acoustic Imaging Camera for Compressed Air Leak Detection
The FLIR Si1-LD is an easy-to-use acoustic imaging camera for locating and quantifying pressurized leaks in compressed air systems. This lightweight, one-handed camera is designed to help maintenance, manufacturing, and engineering professionals identify air leaks faster than with traditional methods. Built with a carefully constructed array of MEMS microphones for high sensitivity, the Si1-LD produces a precise acoustic image that visually displays ultrasonic information, even in loud, industrial environments. The acoustic image is overlaid in real time on a digital image, allowing you to accurately pinpoint the source of the sound, with onboard analytics which quantify the losses being incurred. The Si1-LD features a plugin that enables you to import acoustic images to FLIR Thermal Studio suite for offline editing, analysis, and advanced report creation. Field analysis and reporting can also be done using the FLIR Acoustic Camera Viewer cloud service. Transferring of images can be managed via memory stick or USB data cable. Through a regular maintenance routine, the FLIR Si1-LD can help facilities reduce their environmental impact and save money on utility bills.
