Editor's Picks from Other Websites

We hope you enjoy the articles on Electronic Design, but there's a lot going on and we can't cover everything. In this section, Electronic Design editors highlight articles they found this week that you might be interested in as well. 

Bill Wong's Picks

Spent last week at three tradeshows but did have time to check out some other articles. First is a different twist on hybrid architectures. You will need to sign in to read the state machine article but it is well worth the read. The Microwaves & RF Top Stories is actually a collection of the latest articles which is handy because I like a lot of these from the chip scale atomic clock to a special report on timing.
