The 1590 die-cast enclosures family from Hammond Manufacturing consists of 41 different sizes in the standard rectangular and Stomp Box, painted variants. Hammond Manufacturing’s 1590 STOMP die-cast aluminium enclosures are designed to accept the most commonly used switches for stomp box applications. New standard red or blue anodised finishes to the 1455 family of extruded aluminium instrument cases from Hammond Electronics enable designers to make their products stand out from the crowd without going to the time and expense of specifying custom finishes. The latest addition to the 1455 series of extruded aluminium enclosures from Hammond Manufacturing is the 1455NHD, which features six integral heat dissipating fins in the extrusion profile, providing enhanced cooling capability for when high thermal loads are expected from the housed equipment. An innovative bareboard computer enclosure platform allows electronics designers, for the first time, to cook up creations that bring together ham, egg and Raspberry Pi. Researchers in Germany have managed to stop light for up to one minute inside a crystal and store digitally-encoded information inside it. The technique shatters previous records and could prove very useful in developing faster and highly efficient quantum and optical computers.
