Researchers at MIT have partnered with the Tangible Media Group and the Fluid Interface Group to develop THAW – a smartphone system that allows “Smartphone users to seamlessly interact with other computer devices via their screen.” This new technology could grow into an even bigger accomplishment when you sit and consider its future possibilities. “THAW works by projecting a … [Read more...]
New Connectors for Military Vehicles Depend on Integrated EMC Filters
Amphenol, a manufacturer of interconnect products for the military, commercial aerospace and industrial markets, approached MPE Ltd of Liverpool last year with a view to developing a ground-breaking range of connectors with integrated EMC filtering. So, in conjunction with Amphenol, MPE has produced the Rhino range of filtered connectors to deliver a high level of EMC … [Read more...]
How much ESD can an IC bear?
IC immunity tests under the influence of ESD Sven Konig Nowadays, electronic devices have to meet the highest standards in terms of ESD immunity. "According to estimates of TÜV NORD, the manufacturing industry incurs costs amounting to millions of euros every year due to electrostatic discharges. ESD effects lead to circuit failures which in turn bring a vehicle, a process or … [Read more...]

RF Reference Sources Simplify RF Calibration
Fluke Calibration has released the 96270A and 96040A low phase noise RF reference sources for RF calibration applications. Designed to help simplify RF and microwave calibration systems by replacing many of the instruments and accessories in existing systems, these new reference sources feature accurate signal delivery direct to the UUT input (up to 27 GHz in the 96270A); an … [Read more...]
4G Study Highlights Need for More Thermal Loss Research
A new study from Danish researchers suggests the ongoing push towards global 4G roaming and high-quality, frequency-reconfigurable antennas will need to account for new loss capacities not considered by previous technology. The worldwide demand for 4G technology and higher data rates in cell phones has led to a new, urgent need for frequency-reconfigurable or tunable antennas. … [Read more...]
Pioneering Electromagnetic Technology Patent to Impact US Navy
A collaboration between NSWC military scientists with expertise in pulse powered systems and high temperature superconducting materials led to innovative new magnetic flux compression generator design. Navy officials announced last week that a new development in electromagnetic technology patented in May will have an important effect on military capabilities. The … [Read more...]
PIN Diode Switches Cover Up to 12 GHz with Isolation as High as 90 dB
Pasternack Enterprises, Inc., has introduced a new family of consisting of three low insertion loss, high isolation and high speed modules that cover a frequency range of 1 to 12 GHz. The new RF switches feature very high port-to-port isolation of greater than 90 dB at 1-2 GHz, 80 dB at 2-4 GHz and 75 dB at 6-12 GHz, while insertion loss varies between 1.0 dB and 2.5 dB … [Read more...]
