Knock-offs of electronic components, such as connectors, can cause big problems for purchasers, particularly if the purchasers are inaccurately informed as to what they are buying.
We at LEMO provide this white paper to help our customers make more informed decisions and better shield themselves from civil and...



With today’s ever-evolving technology and fluid economic markets, it is more important than ever that your enterprise grasps every opportunity for competitive advantage. One of the best ways to stay ahead of your competitors is to reduce the time-to-market of your products. The quicker the process from inception...

Whether you are a consultant designing a new cabling infrastructure for a new costumer or an IT manager who is tasked with designing a new datacenter, choosing the best cabling system for a premise LAN or a datacenter can be a daunting task. Fortunately, there are industry standards and best practices to help select and...



Stepper motors are mostly driven in open loop mode. Timing of the step pulses is defined by the controller, the motor is supposed to follow without loosing synchronism. Stepper motors are in fact natural positioning devices which do not require position feedback. The drawback of their design are important iron losses when...



Today's high reliability military, aerospace, and industrial applications require more rugged, light - weight filter connectors. The filter connector provides a stray signal barrier upstream and away from electronic devices to protect critical circuits from electrical interference, without affecting system function...



Albert Einstein said, “Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler.” Whether in architectural design, software coding, engineering discipline or even managing people, simplicity is an overriding goal and success is achieved when a product or process is at its maximum simplicity.
Electronic...



Many original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and electronic manufacture service (EMS) providers try to manage and maintain a supply chain with minimal excess and obsolete (E/O) inventory. Whether the OEM uses EMS providers for turnkey services or consigns the inventory with them, one or both parties end up dealing with...



As system interoperability continuously progresses in mass transportation systems, European authorities are increasingly defining standards for fire safety.
Fire safety is of vital importance in transporation systems, particularly rail systems and Europe has defined the EC/TCS 45545 standard with which mass transit...



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...



Why is it that seemingly similar power supplies have significantly different performance and reliability characteristics? The answer may lie in the specification detail that can be missing from some data sheets, available only in the long-form data/application notes or may even be due to “specmanship”.

Utilizing embedded microcontrollers for industrial applications requires special attention given the harsh and noisy environment. Going from a supply voltage as low as +1.5V or +3.3V to the +24V industrial world requires careful design decisions and dedicated solutions to achieve safe and reliable operation.
The following...



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 drive to create Metadata processing server systems plus the parallel push for increased port density and triple-play (voice / video / internet) traffic handling in telecommunication systems places greater demands on power management architectures.
A new architecture is required to optimize processing real...
