Mouser Electronics is spotlighting the innovative technologies transforming the medical and healthcare sectors through its Medical Resource Centre.
As healthcare continues to embrace digital advancements, these technologies are driving significant improvements in diagnostics, patient care, and treatment methodologies. The rise of artificial intelligence (AI) and other cutting-edge solutions is enabling more accurate diagnoses, reducing wait times, and providing access to advanced digital therapies.
One of the key developments highlighted by Mouser is the impact of AI on healthcare. By offering enhanced analytical capabilities, AI is revolutionising patient care, providing deeper insights into health data, and opening new possibilities in treating chronic and previously incurable conditions.
The Medical Resource Centre offers an extensive collection of resources for design engineers, including articles, blogs, eBooks, and a wide array of innovative products. This expansive library equips engineers with the tools they need to create precise medical technologies that improve patient outcomes and advance healthcare practices.
Recent technological advances are reshaping patient care, from early disease detection to personalised treatments. Wearable robotics, for example, are helping individuals with mobility issues walk longer distances, greatly improving their quality of life. In addition, thermal imaging technology is now able to detect heat anomalies that the human eye cannot see, offering critical insights that enable patients to make informed, proactive health decisions. As technology continues to evolve, further medical breakthroughs are expected to enhance the future of healthcare.
Mouser also stocks a vast range of semiconductors and electronic components designed for medical applications. Some of the latest offerings include:
- SFH 7018x MULTILED from ams OSRAM: this high-performance multi-emitter device integrates green, red, and infrared emitters for heart rate and SpO2 monitoring. It is well-suited for digital diagnostics, vital sign monitoring, and wearable devices
- ST1VAFE6AX biosensor from STMicroelectronics: this biosensor is designed for biopotential signal detection and motion tracking. Featuring smart FIFO up to 4.5KB, along with SPI/I2C and MIPI I3C serial interfaces, the biosensor supports healthcare applications such as wearables, activity tracking, and well-being monitoring
- CEM102 from onsemi: a compact sensor with low power consumption, the CEM102 helps enable the miniaturisation of devices while extending battery life. When paired with the onsemi RSL15 Bluetooth wireless microcontroller, it detects abnormal sensor conditions and supports IoT sensor devices and wearables
- CUS800M and CUS1000M AC-DC power supplies from TDK-Lambda: these power supplies feature the medical certifications required for B- and BF-type medical equipment. Their compact design makes them ideal for medical, audio-visual, and communication technology applications
