New products from Analog Devices now stocked by element 14 include: 

  • Mixed signal: Amplifiers, ADC and DAC converters, analogue switches, comparators, and analogue functions
  • Power management: Battery management, DC/DC converters, voltage regulators, LDO, LED drivers, controllers, and power management integrated circuits (PMICs)
  • Interface: Transceivers, receivers, interface, drivers, and special function products 
  • Radio frequency (RF): RF amplifiers and modules
  • Sensors: Temperature and optical sensors
  • Embedded: Microcontrollers and digital signal processors 

“In addition to this, the inclusion of legacy products from Maxim Integrated and Trinamic will assist design engineers in extending the life expectancy of existing products, helping to reduce the risk of early obsolescence,” says Simon Meadmore. “Together, Analog Devices and element14 can offer customers the capability and integrated services to help drive success across a wide range of technologies, projects, and applications.”
Analog Devices combines analogue, digital, and software technologies in a broad portfolio of high-performance analogue, mixed-signal, and digital signal processing integrated circuits designed for many types of electronic equipment, including 5G, Internet of Things (IoT), cyber security, radar systems, and RF solutions.
Bryan Tallman of Analog Devices says the new distribution agreement with element14 will increase the availability of its products for existing customers and also make them more accessible to engineers around the world.
“The power of element14’s element14 Community, regional, technical, and customer support services, [and] robust distribution network were key drivers in establishing this new global partnership,” he said.
element14 offers an extensive range of products in its comprehensive semiconductor portfolio to support design engineers. Customers also have free access to online resources, datasheets, application notes, videos, webinars, 24/5 technical support, and accurate traceability.
Analog Devices’ selected range of market-leading products is now available for fast delivery from element14 in APAC.

Westland Industrial Heritage Park: From trash to treasure

30 April 2026

The West Coast has a history as rich as it is rugged, with a past steeped in mining, logging, and dairy farming on a forest-clad strip between the mountains and the sea. Up by Hokitika airport is a sheddies’ paradise where relics from this past are being resurrected by an enthusiastic and capable band of volunteers.
“It all started back in 1981. Everything was going by train out to scrap, so we formed a club to stop it,” says Mort Cruickshank. The “we” were four young men – Spike Jones, Jim Straton, Mike Rooney and Mort. They formed the Westland Farm and Vintage Machinery Club and started salvaging old machinery that had been destined for the dump. With no premises, they kept it in their backyard sheds and met sporadically to plan the future.
Four decades on, and the Westland Industrial Heritage Park, spread over several acres up by Hokitika airport, is packed with machinery, sheds and enthusiasts. It is a hub of community activities, has a Menzshed on site and is increasingly a drawcard for tourists.

Making a gate – the blacksmith way

22 April 2026

Joe Parkes is a blacksmith and as a youngster learned his trade the hard way. In 1958, aged 12, he was apprenticed to his grandfather and he quickly learned not to make mistakes. His giant Scots grandfather, Jack James, was a smithy of the old school. If young Joe got something wrong he had his head dunked in the half barrel of water used for cooling steel from the forge. He learned quickly.
“My grandfather, I called him Pop, was a big bugger, standing 6 ft 11 inches (1.8 metres) tall and weighing in at 20 stone (127 kg). He was a hard bastard, but he was my mentor. I once saw him pull a man through a high hedge and throw him over the top. You didn’t mess with him. If the blacksmiths got into a scrap you kept well clear.

Hot stuff in Taranaki

9 April 2026

Hot rods – we see them rumbling round the highways and byways, big V8s burbling, immaculate finished body and paintwork and obviously someone’s pride and joy. Many people don’t realise the work that goes into customising one of these gleaming machines. Some are old cars reshaped and rebuilt, and some are made from scratch, often using the classic designs and lines of cars built in the 1920s, 30s and 40s.
In the little town of Normanby in South Taranaki there’s a workshop set up to create these beasts. We caught up with guys from three businesses in a row having smoko together. An upholstery business, a custom fabrication shop and an engineering shop. All mates who work in together in a way that can only happen in a small town.
