 begins Sunday, March 8. Set your clocks forward an hour.
 
 Its also a good time to check smoke detectors and prepare for Pi Day (see 
story at right).

|  |  5 kV Five-Channel Isolators |  |   
|  |  Five-Channel IsoLoop® 
IL200-Series Isolators are now available in 5 kV isolation/1 kV Working 
Voltage versions.
 
 
 Parts are available with 5/0, 4/1, and 3/2 channel configurations.
 
 With the five-channel parts, NVE now offers high-voltage
 V-Series two, four, and five channel data couplers, as well as
 RS-485, RS-422, and PROFIBUS transceivers.
 
 Key V-Series specifications include:
  5 kVrms isolation (1 minute) per UL 1577
  1 kVrms Working Voltage (line voltage) per VDE 0884-10
  >1014 
ohm barrier resistance
  Wide-body packages with True 8 mm creepage
 
 All the 5 kV 
isolators are in stock for immediate delivery.

|  |  GMR Switch 
Demonstration Video
 
 NVE Vice President for Sensors Jay Brown shows how GMR Switches compare to Hall 
effect and AMR sensors.
 
 Theres a live demonstration with three sensors, a magnet, and no tricks.
 
 
 (SPOILER ALERT: The GMR Switches are smaller, more sensitive, and lower power 
than the other sensors.)

World |  |   
|  |  Distributor HY-LINE Power Components showed IsoLoop isolators at the recent Embedded 
World exhibition in Nürnberg, Germany. There was strong interest in NVE 
isolators, particular for I²C 
and SPI.

Day Applications |  |   
|  |  In honor of Pi Day 
3/14/15, heres the
 Biot-Savart Law calculation for current-induced
 magnetic field:
 
 
 The equation can be used to calculate the field due to current through a circuit 
board trace. With this information, NVE 
AA-Series analog magnetic sensors can measure current.
 
 Download the Current Measurement Application Bulletin 
for more information.
