Molex Showcases Patent-Pending LED Socket for Solid State Lighting

LISLE, Ill. – May 21, 2008 – With thermal management for compact electronic devices in mind, Molex Incorporated (NASDAQ: MOLX and MOLXA) showcases its patent-pending LED socket technology atLIGHTFAIR International, Las Vegas, May 28-30. Molex LED socket technology reduces component count, permitting automated high-speed pick-and-placement of LEDs and resistors to greatly reduce cycle time and overall cost. Designed to support emerging solid state lighting (SSL) technologies, the new LED socket will be used to power Seoul Semiconductors Acriche AC LED. An LED bulb using Seoul Semiconductors Acriche AC LED and Molexs MID technology will be on display in the Seoul Semiconductor booth, number 233.

NASA's Phoenix Finally Fills Oven

JoeRobe writes "Phoenix has successfully filled oven #4 of the Thermal and Evolved-Gas Analyzer instrument (TEGA). They have spent several days now vibrating the screen above the oven, trying to get a significant amount of soil sample into it. From the article: '[T]he oven might have filled because of the cumulative effects of all the vibrating, or because of changes in the soil's cohesiveness as it sat for days on the top of the screen.' Either way, this is the first step toward getting some interesting data from this instrument."
