When it comes to testing, a lot of effort is spent selecting the “right” testing tool. However, often this effort is expended for a second-class goal. Certainly, you need a tool that works for you, your development environment, your project, and your process. However, what is paramount for good testing is not...

Learn how optically - isolated relays can improve the performance of data acquisition systems and industrial machines.
However, solid-state devices are not created equal when it comes to these performance advantages. Optically-isolated solid state relays, in particular, can outshine other solid-state devices...

Each memory module has rank based on how DRAM chips are organized. A memory rank is a set of DRAM chips connected to the same chip select, and which are therefore accessed simultaneously. In practice they also share all of the other command and control signals, and only the data pins for each DRAM are separate (but the...

Flash memory is commonly used to store firmware in embedded systems. Occasionally, the firmware stored in the Flash memory in some systems is accidentally corrupted, preventing the system from booting up after power-on. Flash corruption is commonly associated with a software bug. However, it is also commonly understood...

Solutions to problems such as excessive noise levels or objectionable sound signatures to inaccuracies in a high precision positioning system, can be easily implemented if they are considered early enough in the product’s design cycle, ideally at the beginning. This article examines a few real-world vibration problems...

Timing components such as low jitter oscillators and clocks are necessary to facilitate increasing data rates in high speed digital designs. As part of the overall system design, the components also have to perform in the system’s non-ideal power integrity environment and limit the power supply induced phase noise...

Over the past two decades, shunt-based current-sensing technology using Broadcom’s optically isolated sigma-delta modulator has gained wide acceptance with industrial general inverters and servo drives over traditional current transformers (CTs) and hall effect sensors (HESs). In addition to small size and low cost...

When considering gate drive requirements, the three most important parameters for eGaN FETs are (1) the maximum allowable gate voltage, (2) the gate threshold voltage, and (3) the “body diode” voltage drop.
eGaN FETs differ from their silicon counterparts because of their significantly faster switching...

Generally, electronic devices require power sources to operate. In an idealization, the source is merely wired to the load device, and the task is done.
Such a simplification can be made for low power and short-distance connection between the source and the load, but is inaccurate for moderate to high power...
