By Danny Boesing, Product Marketing Director, Samtec, Inc. Design Challenges Of High Data Rate As data rate requirements approach and surpass 112 Gbps PAM4, developers are challenged with balancing increasing throughput, scalability, and density demands with concerns such as power consumption, signal integrity, time-to-market, and of course cost. To achieve these data rates, designers often […]
Why is Micro-Coaxial Preferred for High-Speed Applications?
By Nick Murata, Product Marketing, and Jack Ozeki, Field Application Engineer, I-PEX Connectors Features and Applications of Micro-Coaxial Cable As high-speed Internet improves and the usage of large-capacity memory devices increases, high-quality images and videos can be enjoyed more easily on consumer products such as PCs, tablets and smartphones. The amount of information that needs […]
How does laser level sensing work?
In a small area without critical accuracy requirements, the old school approach of a stretched string with a chalk line and a bubble level can provide adequate measurements. For larger, more critical situations, laser technology provides a substantial improvement. A laser, such as the DeWalt DW074KD, a rotary laser level accurate to 1/4 inches at […]
Why you should avoid choosing an oscilloscope based on bandwidth alone
By Kaitlyn Franz, Digilent Test & Measurement Manager When choosing an oscilloscope, it is critical to make sure that you find the perfect balance of quality and performance. Considering the massive spectrum in the price of these devices, it is worth the extra time to make sure you can get a scope with the most […]
Master wireless connectivity for IIoT with Avnet and TE Connectivity
Traditional quality improvement programs are yielding diminishing returns. As a result, many manufacturing environments are turning to the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) to deliver the insights necessary to initiate a next wave of significant efficiency improvements. One major area of potential in this new IIoT landscape is the use of wireless technology. Radio frequency […]
Common Misconceptions about USB Oscilloscopes
By Kaitlyn Franz, Test and Measurement Product Manager USB instruments are a commonly featured topic in Test and Measurement media. With new devices constantly launching, an especially heated debate is standalone oscilloscopes vs USB oscilloscopes. With the debate, comes misconceptions. Here’s the bottom line, there are going to be cases where one fits the application […]
Exploring connectors for the industrial IoT
Industrial IoT (IIoT), or Industry 4.0, is revolutionizing the way factories, suppliers and customers share their digital knowledge. From process control and automotive assembly, to robotics and the food and beverage industry, the concept behind Industry 4.0 touches all industries. However, the benefits of IIoT are not available at the flick of a switch. To […]

TE Holding, TE, and First Sensor have also entered into a business combination agreement which outlines parameters to facilitate the combination. The management board and supervisory board of First Sensor welcome and, […]
Superposition vs. True-Balanced: What’s Required for Your Signal Integrity Application
Signal integrity applications commonly utilize balanced/differential transmission lines that are typically characterized using vector network analyzers (VNAs). This white paper offers guidance to signal integrity designers on the differences between the superposition and true-balanced approaches and which one may best fit their need.
Hacked at the Polls
Last month we learned that computer systems used by both the U. S. Democratic National Committee (DNC) and the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) were hacked into, possibly by Russia. The initial news reports were confirmed by the FBI, which is investigating the breaches. While no actual damage appears to have been done—yet—it is not […]
