A fundus examination device uses what's known as a fundus camera to view behind the pupil. It is used for examining blood vessels, the retina, optic nerves, and other parts of the eye. Whisper-quiet operation is required for devices in an examination room of a hospital. For this reason, cooling fans with low-noise...

As lead-free gains momentum, many engineers are striving to set-up a wave solder process that maintains production yields but also offer reliable assemblies. Much has been written on these topics in the past 5 years.
Less confusion does exist today about alloy choices available to replace leaded solders, however many...

Stratum 3 and Stratum 3E oscillators have two frequency stability specifications (Free Run and Holdover). Telcordia has somewhat defined a third requirement, Drift. The Drift requirement is not per say a Telcordia specification. However Telcordia suggests that the Drift be used for calculating the Holdover specification...

Despite the best intentions at the outset of an electronic product’ s design, it’s commonplace for the power supply specification to evolve during the process and to only be finalized later on. At this point, it’s not uncommon to realize that the remaining physical space cannot accommodate an industry...

A novel approach for providing microprocessor power directly from 48V is proposed. This solution enables high voltage, low current to be distributed throughout a system, minimizing distribution losses, while providing low voltage, high current direct from the 48V input in the most efficient manner possible.
This solution...

Almost every switched-mode power supply (SMPS) needs an EMI (Electro Magnetic Interference) input filter to suppress any disturbances of the SMPS on the power lines. This requirement having an input filter in the design ensures that no negative effect will occur in other parts of the systems connected to the power lines....

PCI was originally designed as an interconnect for personal computers; because of the nature of PCs at that time, the protocol architects did not anticipate the need for multiprocessors. Therefore, they designed the system assuming that the host processor would enumerate the entire memory space. Obviously, if another processor...
