5G NR (New Radio) has pioneered the use of mmWave frequencies that provide large bandwidths. This frequency range 2 (FR2), ranging from 24.25 GHz to 52.6 GHz, enables reliable, high data rate transmissions required particularly for demanding real-time applications with low latencies. Wide bandwidths and a very high configuration...

While switch manufacturers play a large role in a device’s reliability, the environmental conditions the switch will be exposed to is another significant factor that should not be overlooked. Switch life expectancy and even critical switch failure issues...
The internationalization of flows has brought about more complexity in business management. Supply chains are now managed at a global scale, take outsourcing strategies into account and integrate wide product portfolios.
With more internal or external suppliers, and more products and raw materials coming from different...
Advanced capacitors based on conductive polymers maximize performance and reliability.
Capacitors may seem simple enough, but specifying them has actually grown more complex in recent years. The reason why comes down to freedom of choice. The universe of capacitors has expanded greatly over the past few years, in...
The semiconductor shortage has hindered production across industries, including the home appliance and telecommunications sectors.
While the chip industry has dozens of new factories in its sights, they will take years to build, meaning no relief anytime soon. Meanwhile, manufacturing equipment scarcity–caused,...

LUXEON CoB with CrispWhite Technology, a new LED alternative to conventional lighting technologies, offers a single LED light source which makes whites appear more vibrant and colors look warmer...
As consumers demand smaller, faster computer systems, OEM design engineers race to create systems with compact, more powerful microprocessors and chipsets. However, these compressed designs provide engineers with a new enemy…heat.
In minutes, densely packaged microprocessors or compact electronic systems can...
This paper will describe a new approach coming to the market that will break the barrier to creating the ideal in motion sensors with the promise to meet market needs in size, performance, and cost.
This unique new approach comes from the patented MEMS fabrication process with vertical integration of MEMS with CMOS...
Read this eBook from Tempo Automation to uncover the 3 key trends accelerating electronics development.
In all engineering domains, development is defined by a Design, Build, and Test (DBT) cycle. Each time a project goes through this cycle, ideas are validated, deficiencies are discovered, and solutions determined....
