Septentrio, a leader in high-precision GNSS positioning solutions, announces today an addition to its GNSS timing portfolio: mosaic-TTM is a high-end GPS/GNS receiver module built specifically for resilient and precise time and frequency synchronization under challenging conditions. Its multi-frequency multi-constellation GNSS technology together with AIM+ Advanced Interference Mitigation algorithms allows mosaic-TTM to achieve maximal availability even in the presence of GNSS jamming or spoofing. This compact […]
Two-channel interleaved boost-PFC controller IC includes mechanical inrush control
STMicroelectronics is extending its range of digital power-supply controllers with the STNRGPF02 for two-channel interleaved boost-PFC topologies. Customers can easily configure the device using eDesignSuite software that also helps quickly complete the circuit design and select external components. The STNRGPF02 brings the advantages of digital power to applications from 600W to 6kW, including greater flexibility and faster […]
Video: 5G NR-Light will serve sensors, wearables, and IoT
5G Technology World interviews Qualcomm’s Danny Tseng on what to expect from 3GPP Release 17.
Conducted and coupled EMI/EMC concepts
In addition to the International Telecommunications Union (discussed in part 1 of this FAQ series), there are several organizations that define and regulate acceptable levels of conducted and radiated emissions from electronic devices. These various agencies have developed numerous standards generally based on the operational environment of the specific device. Effectively managing EMI is a […]
High-current inductors target high-efficiency dc/dc converters in automotive apps
Würth Elektronik has extended its portfolio of AEC-Q200 Grade 1-qualified electronic components by the high-current inductor WE-HCFA. This coil is designed for high-efficiency DC/DC converters in automotive applications. The characteristic features of this flat-wire coil with its MnZn core are its high rated current (IR 38-47 A) and a high saturation performance. At an RDC […]
Combo receiver/GPS oscillators come in pint-sized packages
GPS Disciplined Oscillators (GPSDO) are one of the most accurate and trusted sources of timing. Often called GPS clocks, they consist of a high-stability oscillator and a GPS receiver. GPSDO works by steering the oscillator output to a GPS device or GNSS satellite signal through a tracking loop. Some of their applications include functioning as […]
FPGA shrinks size and power
The Certus-NX FPGA from Lattice Semiconductor includes fast I/O and a hardened PCIe interface for connecting to local devices and to the outside world.
High-frequency components line aids in testing mmWave and optical designs
The W1 (1.0 mm) component line has expanded with the introduction of bias tees, dc block, and semi-rigid cables that operate to 110 GHz and provide broadband frequency scalability in high-frequency device characterization and optical networking applications. The addition of the new W1 components provides Anritsu with the broadest millimeter wave (mmWave) coaxial component portfolio […]
FPGAs provide high I/O Count in small form factor
Lattice Semiconductor launched the new Lattice Certus-NX family of FPGAs. The devices lead the general-purpose FPGA market in I/O density, delivering up to twice the I/O density per mm2 in comparison to similar competing FPGAs, and provide best-in-class power savings, small size, reliability, instant-on performance, and support fast PCI Express (PCIe) and Gigabit Ethernet interfaces to […]
Five ways to lower 5G test costs
With billions of 5G devices expected to come online over the next several years, manufacturers of 5G devices need to deliver high-quality products while overcoming cost constraints.
