Using a single op amp and a properly selected resistor, this white-noise generator provides flat output versus frequency and speeds testing of circuit performance.
Formal verification is used by almost every chip development and verification group, though myths about it persist and may deter engineers who could benefit from its value.
Before testing for potential reliability issues that could crop up with your next board design, familiarize yourself with the physical HALT and virtual-simulation processes.
Tearing down the Samsung Tab S4—a 2-in-1 tablet/PC that combines high-end entertainment, security, and voice control with good productivity tools in a sleek package that keeps the iPad Pro on its toes.
Sponsored by Texas Instruments: Often used for overcurrent protection, current-sense amplifiers are now finding homes in a wide array of applications, including automotive electronic fuses and three-phase motor control.
Today’s ASICs, FGPAs, and off-the-shelf ICs have increasingly stringent power requirements. These requirements result in the need to test power rails with decreasing voltages and tighter tolerances.
