Electronic Design Invests in Test & Measurement Coverage

Dec. 8, 2021

Hello. I am Bill Wong, Senior Content Director managing Electronic Design, Evaluation Engineering, and Microwaves & RF. After much thought and discussion, we have decided to incorporate Evaluation Engineering, and it’s now part of Electronic Design. All of its content can be found on the Electronic Design website.

Test and measurement has been evolving over the years. Sensors are at crux of the internet of things so we are looking to expand our coverage in these areas. We are also seeing more integration with technologies we cover in Electronic Design so it made sense to bring all this together in one publication.

Evaluation Engineering editor Alix Paultre is now Editor-at-Large for the Design & Engineering Group that includes Electronic Design and Microwaves & RF. Over the course of the last two years, he expanded the coverage of Evaluation Engineering to all aspects of test and measurement, sensors, and development tools. He also originated the Kit Close-Up video series, which will continue to grow on Electronic Design. Alix has always stressed how test and measurement has been integral to electronic engineering and design and that it affects all aspects of development and deployment.

The Evaluation Engineering newsletter now will be called Electronic Design Evaluation and Test News. This will include articles and videos for our Test & Measurement channel as well as articles and videos for related TechXchanges and multi-part series in the Electronic Design Library.

We will continue the tradition of bringing the latest electronic technology and insight to you on the web and in print. The Evaluation Engineering digital archives will be available on Electronic Design in 2022, so you can download digital editions that you may have missed.

We will be celebrating our 70^th anniversary in 2022 and look forward to covering the electronic industry for another 70 years.

I earned a Bachelor of Electrical Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology and a Masters in Computer Science from Rutgers University. I still do a bit of programming using everything from C and C++ to Rust and Ada/SPARK. I do a bit of PHP programming for Drupal websites. I have posted a few Drupal modules.

I still get a hand on software and electronic hardware. Some of this can be found on our Kit Close-Up video series. You can also see me on many of our TechXchange Talk videos. I am interested in a range of projects from robotics to artificial intelligence.
