I grew up in the 90s in a small town in West Virginia. Everybody knew each other, everybody knew each other’s kids, and all of the kids spent time at each other’s houses in the summertime. When the heat and humidity turned oppressive, we’d spend the middle of the day inside, playing video games, listening to music, reading comic books, or trading baseball cards. … [Read more...]

Myths and Legends of EMI in PCB Design
Many designers struggle with EMI and EMC challenges, and there are many myths surrounding EMI that do not help designers overcome EMC hurdles. Some designers may lack experience, while others may know EMI/EMC rules but apply them incorrectly. There is also an issue of delegation, where EMI/EMC is sometimes seen as not being a designer’s problem. No matter who is … [Read more...]
EMC Immunity Testing: Do You Know Your Failures?
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) is the desired condition for electronic devices. In an ideal world, radio-frequency emissions and transient events would not cause failures or disruptions to electronic equipment. But as much as we (and the product manufacturers) wish otherwise, we are not in an ideal world. Radiated emissions, whether intentional from transmitters or … [Read more...]
IoT Systems with mmWave Sensors
One of the most common applications of Internet of Things (IoT) devices is sensing, followed by transmission of raw data back to a base station or server for storage and further analysis. The most common of these sensing tasks seems to be environmental sensing, such as monitoring gas concentrations, temperature, humidity, etc. These devices are so ubiquitous that they … [Read more...]
Regulatory Lunch Break: Alphabet Soup
Over several decades, the FCC, the US Trade Representative, Department of Commerce (NIST) and the Industry (TCB Council, ACIL, Private Labs, including WLL) have been involved with opening up regulatory trade arrangements under the guise of “Mutual Recognition Arrangements” (MRAs). The purpose of MRAs is to even the playing ground for labs and their industrial clientele. In the … [Read more...]
Skip-Layer Routing for High Bandwidth Channels
As we have seen from discussions on chiplets and their routing standards in substrates, many of the routing techniques used in PCBs also apply in packaging. Microstrip and stripline structures can both be used in IC substrates, and the design approach is basically the same as in PCBs. This routing is fine for the majority of digital interfaces, but when we get to wideband … [Read more...]
