The topics covered in the articles include Internet of Things (IoT) sensors, electronic switches, optical control panels, and current sensing solutions in GaN DC-DC converters.

Industry 4.0 is the result of significant technological advancements, including cloud computing, artificial intelligence, machine-to-machine communication, and the Internet of Things (IoT). This technological revolution enables manufacturers to automate repetitive processes, such as monitoring and communications, thereby reducing the need for human involvement in diagnostics and troubleshooting. Because Industry 5.0 combines the strengths of human intuition with machine efficiency, Vishay's advanced collection of components and sensors will support the next generation of industrial automation solutions.

The new eBook offers links to nine relevant Vishay products, such as the VCNL4200 proximity and ambient light sensor, which can be used to detect proximity in industrial drive applications, such as turning off a display when no one is present, thus reducing energy consumption. Vishay's IHLP-7575GZ-5A and IHLP-7575GZ-51 fixed inductors can be used in DC/DC power applications for computers, displays, and commercial LED lighting. They are also ideal for hybrid and low-speed electric vehicles based on 48V systems. The ENYCAP™ 196 HVC hybrid storage capacitors can be used to store energy, providing backup power for battery-powered applications or as a storage device for power provisioning. Vishay's high-performance components can be used in a wide range of industrial applications, including power backup, proximity sensing, and DC/DC conversion.
