Human Body Model in EMC Overview of the Human Body Model in EMC The human body model provides a description of charge accumulation and discharge from the human body, and it provides a way to understand how charge redistributes into a circuit during ESD. Read Article
The Not-too-Distant Future of Procurement The Not-too-Distant Future of Procurement Procurement is fast rising as a critical and increasingly professional function. Based on the challenges of the past few years, procurement is set to play an even more significant role in tackling and solving critical business problems rather than just managing and optimizing processes. What does that mean to your organization? You will need a highly skilled team in place capable of getting you there. Building a Technical/StrategicProcurement Read Article
Are Your SMD Components Reliable for Aerospace? Are Your SMD Components Reliable for Aerospace? Aerospace systems are the one area that demand paramount reliability, both in the commercial and military segments. These systems can operate over a huge range of temperatures, pressures, and altitudes, including in Earth’s orbit and beyond. As such, there is an expectation of perpetual uptime for aerospace systems, as well as long lifetimes with MTBF values exceeding 10,000 hours of continuous operation. SMD parts used in these environments Read Article
Entrepreneur’s Guide to Modular Product Design Entrepreneur’s Guide to Modular Product Design One of the most common questions I get from my hardware startup clients is this: how can I de-risk my prototype? Entrepreneurs that are just getting started converting their proof-of-concept into a real device that they can test in the field want to make sure their time, effort, and money are put to good use. A lot of entrepreneurs are putting their hard-earned savings into these ventures, and it's desirable to ensure any potential causes of Read Article
Simulation Driven PCB Design Simulation Driven Design Can Solve Your PCB’s Signal Problems and More If you work in the electronics industry or in research, there’s a chance that simulations are a regular part of life. Simpler systems can be designed with intuition and simulated after designs are completed, but more advanced systems running at high frequencies or very high data rates need qualification before and after a PCB layout is complete. Simulation software has to take a more prominent role in PCB design for many advanced systems Read Article
laptop part 2 Concept Phase – Initial CAD Design This installment of the open source laptop project development log will walk you through the early concept and brainstorming phase. The first step is to collect the ideas and requirements for the end device and condense them as best as possible into a simplified draft. It is not important in this stage to pay too much attention to the technical details—it is about laying a foundation i.e. creating a framework that can be subdivided and refined in Read Article
