This paper shows the need for a new impulse response model and proposes a methodology for its inclusion in timedomain simulations.
The paper also solves another difficult problem by presenting a new technique for converting band-limited S-parameters into ‘base-delay’ causal and passive impulse response...

Ethernet seems to be one of the fastest growing transmission protocols ever, on both medium types, fiber and copper. Over fiber it easily reaches 40G and 100G transmission speed but in the future it may achieve even 400G or tera-level speed.
Over copper, of course, much lower speeds are achieved and 1G Ethernet has...

Like its predecessor, the Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI), PCI Express is becoming a ubiquitous system interface. Unlike PCI, PCI Express adopts a Serializer/Deserializer (SERDES) interface to provide users with the scalability required for future applications. As system bandwidths increase, more applications are...

CCDs are ideal for very low light imaging applications, such as astronomy, clinical diagnostic testing, and bioluminescence. The compatibility of the CCD with very long integration times, and facility for noiseless on-chip charge binning, makes it a very sensitive imager.
It remains very competitive for certain applications...

The use of power supplies in harsh, remote environments brings with it many fundamental design issues that must be fully understood if long-term reliability is to be attained. For designers of communications equipment downtime is not an option. Both revenues and safety can be compromised under such circumstances.

The design of AC/DC power supplies is inevitably evolutionary, rather than revolutionary. It develops largely as a result of gradual improvements in semiconductors and passive component technologies and materials. Invariably, power supply design objectives involve not only meeting basic input and output specifications...

A transition to 400 VDC in power distribution and conversion will help meet greenhouse gas, efficiency, and renewable-energy goals.
The pressure throughout the energy supply chain to deliver electrical power more efficiently is intense and growing. Most dramatically, the European Union’s response to the Copenhagen...

The rapidly growing number of electric vehicles (EVs) on the road requires more charging infrastructures to top off energy so that EVs can get back on road quickly. An EV charging station is an important element in the charging infrastructure, which supplies electric energy to the EV and provides a network connection....

Today, R&D engineers face challenging time-to-market goals. Extending the product development schedule and delaying the product launch can prove to be extremely costly in terms of opportunity cost and lost market share. Nearly 50% of products fail EMC compliance the first time.
Every day spent on debugging, isolating...
