Software Simulation Boosts the Efficacy of PCB Design
Adding an effective package to the design cycle can pinpoint areas critical to EMC compliance Dirk Müller, FlowCAD, Munich, GERMANY Ultimately, electromagnetic compatibility can be validated only in the measurement chamber with existing prototypes. Those tests are time consuming and expensive. There are various ideas for cutting the costs of testing with early software … [Read more...]
European Commission Proposes Revisions to WEEE and RoHS Directives
The Commission of the European Communities has proposed extensive revisions to the WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) and RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) Directives, a move that requires the attention of all electronics manufacturers producing products destined for the European market. These two directives have been in effect since 2004 and essentially … [Read more...]
