An automatic test equipment (ATE) PCB (a.k.a. a test board) is at the heart of all major test activities targeted at verifying a specific semiconductor chip’s functionality. An automatic test ...

Design thinking is playing an increasingly significant role in the business world. Companies doing some of the most innovative work, such as Apple, Amazon, and Google, use this approach to help solve ...

Machine and robot builders recognize linear motor benefits, but some are reluctant to integrate the components into design because of incomplete understanding of the technology. Here we overcome that ...

The Palo Verde reference design (MAXREFDES33#) is a high-efficiency, high-voltage, synchronous step-down DC-DC converter with integrated MOSFETs operating over a 4.5V to 60V input voltage range and ...

The last three articles have explored the five steps to designing an embedded software architecture. So far, we’ve separated our software architecture into hardware-dependent and independent ...

The last two articles have explored the five steps to designing an embedded software architecture. So far, we have seen a need in modern embedded systems to separate software architecture into ...
