Leading-edge chip desiLeading-edge chip design was never easy, but it’s getting harder all the time. Rapid advances in communication systems are driving data rates higher. With the emergence of ...

Signal integrity and power integrity historically have been relatively independent issues, and engineers with expertise in one area generally operate independently of the other. But as more power ...

Hot swap controllers used in 48 V telecommunication applications generally offer a Power Good signal to inhibit the operation of the load circuit until the initial inrush current into the input filter ...

Intermodulation distortion is one of the most interesting signal analyzer measurements. Often abbreviated IMD, it is an important metric of linearity for a wide range of RF and microwave components.

Recently, a reader wrote to me seeking a copy of a paper on measuring the transient peak-to-average power ratio of DTV signals. So perhaps the topic of DTV signal power, which is so different from ...

One of the challenges facing design engineers of electrically powered equipment is managing the tangle of individual wires that are often required to provide power and control signals for various ...
