Amphenol RF introduces new high performance SMA connectors suited for use with versatile high frequency 0.81 mm cable or 1.32 mm double shielded cable.
Peraso Inc announced the latest addition to the company's PERSPECTUS series of mmWave modules, the PRM2141X-D.
A new collaboration between Partstat and WIN Semiconductors aims to provide comprehensive long-term storage solutions for semiconductors, including die and wafer banking, to meet the evolving needs of the electronics manufacturing industry.
Q-Tech Corporation announced the availability of the AXIOM line of ultra-low noise (ULN) oven-controlled crystal oscillators (OXCOs).
Troubleshooting RF immunity failures at your workbench allows you to identify susceptibility issues in hours instead of weeks. These focused techniques pinpoint exact coupling mechanisms, saving thousands in test lab costs while providing more efficient solutions than traditional anechoic chamber testing.

Watchdogs are essential system design components that reset systems for recovery. Originally standalone timer ASICs, they're now integrated into power management devices, voltage supervisors, and microcontrollers to enhance functional safety. This article explains various watchdog timers, their interactions, and design strategies for multiple watchdogs, particularly in functionally safe multicore systems requiring independence.

Legal problems arise as a result of most recalls. These can take the form of regulatory problems, product liability lawsuits, retailer problems, and damage to a company’s brand reputation. Well before undertaking a recall, product sellers need to consider what problems might occur and what they need to do to minimize them.

This article will illustrate why it is necessary to introduce the control-oriented model to hazard-based safety engineering (HBSE), based on a typical large core switching fan-tray architecture design and related failure model. The authors also provide detailed design and evaluation guidelines, which can ensure the control of random hardware failure and avoid systematic failure (both hardware and software), then achieve the safety target (i.e., safety integrity level).
