 Axiom Test Equipment, an electronic test
equipment rental and sales company has published a new blog post entitled "Advances in
DC Power Supplies" that offers advice on how to determine what the specifications
need to be for your DC power supply application. Programmability of many models
permits not just setting of constant DC voltage and current levels, but also in
some cases setting of source impedance and creation of complex outputs similar to
those possible with dedicated waveform generators. Often the needs of a DC power
supply for design and development differ from those of production floors and repair
/ alignment activities, so you cannot always apply a one-size-fits-all philosophy.
"Advances in DC Power Supplies" is a good place to start your research. Additionally,
user manuals provided by manufacturers are a great source for application suggestions...

 San Francisco Circuits (SFC) shares in a
recently published article entitled, "The
Importance of PCB Trace Widths in PCB Design," that there are a variety of applications
that demand specific trace layout characteristics and how or when to incorporate
them into PCB designs. A specific PCB application will determine trace widths and
trace types in a PCB design and a balance should be maintained between PCB fabrication
cost, board density/size, and performance. The purpose of a PCB trace is to connect
any kind of electrical signal - analog, digital, or power - from one junction to
another. And if a PCB has specific design requirements such as speed optimization,
noise or coupling mitigation, or high current/voltage, the trace widths and types
might be more important than optimizing for manufacturing cost of the bare PCB or
overall board size...

assemblies with a choice of 20, 40, 50, 67 GHz configurations based on precision
array design and superior high frequency cabling solutions. WMX Series are excellent
signal integrity solutions for bench-top testing and automated test equipment to
meet increasing demands of semiconductor test equipment and optical testing industries.
These products consist of high performance flexible assemblies which can be bundled
in housings (8 and 16 channels) and the interface to board is compression type which
provides lower total cost of testing by avoiding costly soldering components...
 Axiom Test Equipment, an electronic test
equipment rental and sales company has published a new blog post that examines
electric vehicles
(EVs) and hybrid electric vehicle (HEVs) power systems to understand what should
be tested and how to perform those measurements in order to achieve peak vehicle
operation. Manufacturers of EVs and HEVs are making it simpler and more convenient
to maintain adequate electric charge levels to keep their vehicles running for longer
distances on electric power, enticing more drivers to try these environmentally
friendly vehicles. Of course, testing the electrical motors, systems, and their
components is an important part of ensuring that every EV and HEV has the longest
running times and operating lifetimes possible, and that involves understanding
what needs to be tested and how...
 ConductRF's DC to 18 GHz TSA90 with
Type-N and SMA options as well as our TSX90 with extended frequency 27 GHz
SMA solutions, are built with a special
dielectric material that eliminates the "Teflon Knee" in phase change over temperature,
which is a common cause for performance variance in RF cables used in different
environments. These cables are over 30% smaller than traditional lab test cables,
so offer users increased flexibility and density particularly where multiple cables
are used together such as semiconductor testing. With connector options up to 27 GHz,
these cables can offer users solutions for both RF test and also internal system
cables. The triple shielding feature also ensure greater effectiveness for EMI...
 San Francisco Circuits (SFC), a provider
of PCB fabrication
and assembly, announces they are fully compliant with the National Institute
of Standards and Technology (NIST) Special Publication 800-171 requiring companies
to adhere to specific guidelines to protect data and information pertaining to federal
or state agencies. Being in compliance ensures proper data handling is in place
for maintaining the trust of partners, vendors, contractors, and customers–especially
when federal or state agencies are involved. The federal government requires companies
to be compliant with 800-171 to protect Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI).
CUI is sensitive information relevant to the interests of the United States government...
 Copper Mountain Technologies has released
the new Compact S5045 and M5045 VNAs with a frequency range from 9 kHz to 4.5 GHz.
Featuring a dynamic range of 130 dB typ. and measurement speed of 70 µs,
these new
Compact VNA offerings will effectively replace the functionality of the recently
discontinued S5048, while delivering improved performance. The S5045 will come with
the advanced software features engineers expect from CMT's S Series Compact VNAs.
The M5045 will join the M Series line of Compact VNAs and include standard VNA software
features in an economical package that excludes a number of advanced software features...
