Why ANSI/ESD S20.20 1-Foot Rule for Charge Generators needs to be Increased to 1-Meter for Aerospace & Defense

 

INTRODUCTION   IN THE SEMICONDUCTOR SECTOR TODAY, ESD sensitive devices can be damaged at <+/-50 volts. Aerospace & Defense cannot issue a Return Materials Authorization (RMA) for an ESD sensitive device that fails in space or a nonfunctioning weapon system in-theatre. The fact that extruded film can charge up to over +/- 100,000 volts below 20% RHhas been … [Read more...]

Flight Management System Could Easily Run in Smartphone App

 

Concordia researchers Luis Rodrigues and Jesus Villarroel have recently created a mathematical formula that accurately recreates the calculations an FMS makes for a cruising Airbus 320, Phys.org reported. Flight management systems are expensive and not easy to come by, but Rodrigues and Villarroel have created a formula that will be available to pilots, people in the airline … [Read more...]

New GPS/multiband Vehicle-Mount Antenna

 

Pulse Electronics Corporation recently introduced the GPSMB501, a new GPS/multiband vehicle-mount antenna with port-to-port isolation for signal clarity. The antenna has “five connectors to access five antenna solutions -- two MIMO cellular and two dual-band MIMO WLAN and one for a global navigation satellite system (GPS plus Glonass),” according to the company. “Pulse's … [Read more...]

Common-Drain 20V Dual N-Channel MOSFET Battery Protection Device Introduced

 

Recently, Alpha and Omega Semiconductor Limited introduced the AOC3864, a common-drain 20V dual n-channel MOSFET. According to the company, the AOC3864 is able to achieve a 5.7mOhm at 4.5V maximum source-to-source resistance within an ultra-thin 2.7mm x 1.8mm x 0.19mm package. The AOC3864’s structure solves die chipping, cracking and placement issues associated with standard … [Read more...]

New EMI Gasket Materials ‘Touch’ Brochure

 

Recently, Stockwell Elastomerics, Inc. announced their new EMI Gasket Materials ‘Touch’ Brochure showcasing nickel-plated graphite filled elastomer products. “This touch brochure includes tactile buttons of three different electrically conductive elastomers and has been created to assist engineers tasked with specifying EMI / environmental sealing gaskets,” according to the … [Read more...]

ISIS Possibly Using Modern Technology for Encryption and Communication

 

According to NBC News, senior European intelligence officials say that France's ability to prevent attacks like last Friday’s is now challenged by ISIS keeping their electronic communications secret. “Officials believe the ISIS ‘geek squad’ is teaching terrorists how to use encryption and communication platforms like Silent Circle, Telegram and WhatsApp,” NBC News … [Read more...]

Tech Tidbit: New System Could Make Space Travel Easier

 

Recently Reaction Engines, a British Company, gained an investment of £20.6 million from BAE Systems and £60 million in grants from the UK Government to support their SABRE system which they say should be ready for testing by 2020. SABRE is a "hybrid system that has the potential to bind aircraft and spacecraft together," according to IEEE Spectrum. And despite the … [Read more...]

Test of New Interference Technology May Help Speed Up Wireless Networks

 

Next year, Nokia Networks will team up with Artemis Networks to test a new technology that will speed up wireless service. According to Re/code, the wireless technology, called pCell, “combines radio signals to create tiny personal cells around individual devices, allowing users to access the wireless network in such a way that performance isn’t degraded." Re/code reports … [Read more...]
