By Andrew Johnson, Director of Product Management New safety standards based on IEC 62368-1 are superseding existing standards worldwide. In a move that keeps things simple for product vendors, regulators in the US and EU have decided to harmonize the date the new standards will supplant the outgoing 60950-1 and 60065 standards. This harmonized date […]
Six Reasons You Should Use an FPGA
In this article, we’ll be focusing on why FPGAs hit the sweet spot for processing power. Before we dive too deeply into this conversation, let’s address the “elephant in the room” – everything exists for a reason, even ASICs (Application Specific Integrated Circuit), CPUs (Central Processing Unit), and GPUs (Graphics Processing Unit). ASICs provide incredible performance per watt, and are thus very efficient, but they are also much […]

Low Pressure Filtering of a Pressure Sensor’s Input
The Problem In some applications, high-frequency pressure transients may be present that distort the sensor’s output and degrade its ability to read the underlying changes in pressure. This can especially be a problem in low-pressure applications, such as medical measurements where discerning subtle differences is essential to successful diagnosis and monitoring. A common, well-known solution […]
