Every board designed is unique, has different requirements, and requires different trade-offs on the design. But, there are new guidelines for component placement in today’s age of automation that will go a long way toward creating a professional...

Read this Rochester Electronics white paper to learn about their design replication process which develops form, fit and functionally equivalent devices that fall under a DO-254 minor change classification.

Modern electronic devices, penetrating every aspect of our lives and impacting many industries such as aerospace and defense, automotive and consumer electronics, are becoming smaller, faster and increasingly more feature-rich and complex, which...

0201s and other small PCB components are designed to improve reliability in space-constrained applications such as portable electronics, smartphones, tablets, robotics, digital cameras, and more. But, they require delicate handling during the...

There are products and applications for which the performance and quality standards are much higher because the cost and consequences of failure are much greater. In these instances, because of its superior quality and performance, the design team...

RIGOL’s updated primer adds Real-Time analysis to help expand your understanding of the basics of RF signals, time & frequency domains, RF measurement instruments and techniques. Covers oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, signal sources and a range...

Ever get stuck in an elevator? Not fun. If you’re designing elevator control systems, you can turn to a familiar ally—the CAN transceiver—to provide the fault protection that prevents electrical overstress events that hamper elevator operation

With its robustness in harsh electrical environments, fault protection capabilities, and unique message handling, it’s no wonder why the CAN protocol is being adopted into applications where it has never been used before.

Discover the implications of the IEC 60601-1 4th edition standard on your medical application and the power supply you use in your design.

Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) who design external power supplies into their products must continue to monitor the latest efficiency regulations to ensure they are in compliance in each region where their product is sold.
