EYE on NPI: CUI CPS Series Sirens Sirens EyeOnNPI
This week's EYE ON NPI is a topical one - here at Adafruit we've been supplying essential services and goods for engineers, makers, doctors, and students all working on designing products and techniques to help folks with COVID-19. This is an amazing time to see so many talented and driven folks around the world all putting their talents to work! Part of that design work is to have the device alarm a caretaker that something went wrong. For example, if you are designing a pulse oximeter or heart rate detector, you'll want to sound an alarm when the BPM or SpO2 dip below a safety threshold. You'll also need an alarm when power is lost, say if someone accidentally unplugged the power cord. When building DIY and IoT projects, a simple 3V buzzer or piezo might be enough - to let you know when the plants need watering, or if there might be rain tomorrow - but this is not enough for an industrial or safety device, especially one being used in a loud environment. The new CPS series of sirens from CUI (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/c/cui-devices/cps-series-sirens) is a nice and easy way to add a very loud alarm, and comes in a few different shapes, styles and output effects. They're all about 100 dB, as loud as a jackhammer or motorcycle. Inside, they're buzzer/piezos - but really large ones, that are driven by 12V DC. What I like about these is that you don't need to generate the audio waveform from a microcontroller: they start warbling or beeping the moment power is applied. Why is this good? Well you probably have a nice speaker output system in your design, whether its a DAC, PWM or I2S output, and that's good for nice harmonic tones, verbal alerts or even sound clips - all of those kinds of alarm designs are covered by standards like ISO IEC 60601-1-8. But what happens when you have a power failure or a software interlock failure? You may not be able to depend on your software system. These can be controlled or powered by solid-state technologies that don't have a clock or software, as a backup alarm. CUI Devices’ CPS series sirens utilize piezo technology with a built-in driving circuit to offer designers a range of variable tones and sounds, including hi-lo, warble, and more. The CPS models feature sound pressure levels (SPLs) up to 120 dB as well as through-hole, panel mount, and wire lead mounting styles. These piezo sirens can carry operating temperatures from -30°C to +85°C, making them well-suited for security systems, medical devices, harsh environments, and industrial applications. Piezo technology with built-in driving circuit SPLs up to 120 dB Multiple mounting configurations Hi-lo, warble, sweeping, one tone, and six tone offerings Operating temperatures: -30°C to +85°C There's a few in this series, from one that looks like a little horn, to an enclosed box. If we had to pick one to try out, we'd say the CPS-7560 (a.k.a 102-CPS-7560-110L450-ND) is the cutest one, with a panel mount style that evokes an arcade button. This design looks super easy to mount - you just need a round hole in your panel, and is unobtrusive. You can check out that part here: https://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/cui-devices/CPS-7560-110L450/102-CPS-7560-110L450-ND/11590920 ----------------------------------------- Visit the Adafruit shop online - http://www.adafruit.com LIVE CHAT IS HERE! http://adafru.it/discord Adafruit on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/adafruit Subscribe to Adafruit on YouTube: http://adafru.it/subscribe New tutorials on the Adafruit Learning System: http://learn.adafruit.com/ -----------------------------------------

Interactive Fairy Lamps - Beautiful Art Project & Tutorial
Erin St. Blaine created a full sized oak tree sculpture and decorated it with programmable fairy bottle lights. In this video she talks about the concept and vision behind the project, and how it works. She has created a build tutorial for folks who like the concept and want to do something similar. Full project write-up: https://learn.adafruit.com/four-seasons-fairy-bottle-lanterns/overview The tree sculpture also has electronic eyes!

EYE on NPI: Hammond 1552 Series ABS Plastic Enclosures EyeOnNPI
This week's EYE ON NPI looks at a new collection of 1552 series enclosures from Hammond Manufacturing. (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/h/hammond/1552-series-abs-plastic-enclosures) Pre-fabbed ABS plastic enclosures don't get much attention these days - especially since folks can 3D print a case. But for prototyping or even small (less than 1000 pc) runs, these cases can make your product or project look really good. These 'soap' size cases feel good in the hand, with nice bevels. They come with removable end panels - you can use these for panel-mount switches, knobs or LEDs by drilling with any floor drill or CNC. You can also pick up extra panels if you need extras while you work out the design. Then the front can take a sticker and be machined or hand-cut as well. Note that they cannot be laser cut since they are made of ABS. These off-the-shelf boxes have really improved in the years since we've used them - for example these come with nifty mounting plates that hold the enclosure, and cable gland pieces that can replace the end-panels to make a fancy user-control-box. Hammond’s (https://www.digikey.com/en/supplier-centers/h/hammond-manufacturing) 1552 series of handheld ABS plastic enclosures offer elegant, modern style and comfort, while a range of accessories adds capabilities for a host of common applications. Comfort in the hand allows 1552 enclosures to be used for long periods with minimal fatigue in applications, such as machine or electric hoist control. Both end plates are removable for easy machining and are swappable with an integrated TPU cord-grip end panel, which provides input/output and strain relief solutions for cables. The integral cable clamp keeps internally routed cables firmly in place without damage. When device storage is required for applications such as medical instrumentation, a wall-mounted holder is available as an accessory. The 1552 series enclosures fit snugly into the holders, which are also fully compatible with cord-grip end panel kits. We particularly like the look of the 1552C3BK (https://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/hammond-manufacturing/1552C3BK/164-1552C3BK-ND/11201091) which is about 4" long, 2" wide and almost 1" deep. For the best experience, you'll want to design the PCB that fits inside so that it's less than 95mm x 45mm and has four mounting holes to match the internal bosses. Hammond has tons of great resources such as 2D and 3D STEP files - and they can customize the enclosure with pad printing and/or cutouts so you have a nice in-between option that is faster and nicer than 3D printing but not as expensive as a custom injection mold.
