With last year’s sensing/sensor events cancelled or held virtually after COVID -19 hit, it is interesting to monitor how they are being held this year. Some recent announcements provide an indication. The 35th International Conference on Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (IEEE MEMS 2022) will be held in-person in Tokyo, Japan, as well as virtually on […]

Women in Power – IEEE Power in Energy Society Award Nominations
The IEEE PES Women in Power Committee is created to foster a more diverse leadership by supporting career advancement, networking and education of women in the electric power and energy industry. One important way this mission is supported is through the formal recognition of a worthy female member of this community. The IEEE PES Wanda […]
How can the world solve the global ventilator shortage problem? Pt 5
Ventilator shortages in the US could be on the order of 300,00 to 700, 000 units or more but the estimated supply of existing ventilators in world-wide hospitals was less than 200,000 before the COVID-19 outbreak. A more recent indication is that the US has about 200,000 but still just a fraction of what is […]
How does heterogeneous integration impact sensors?
For those not familiar with the term, heterogeneous integration (HI) occurs when diverse components are assembled into System-in-Package (SiP) architectures. Late in 2019, SEMI, the global industry association representing the electronics design and manufacturing supply chain, announced the 2019 release of the Heterogeneous Integration Roadmap (HIR). Prominent examples of the roadmap are wireless and mixed […]
Long Island IEEE section to host power electronics exposition
The IEEE section in Long Island, N.Y. will host the first-ever power electronics symposium to be held in that area on Thursday, Nov. 9, 2017. Organizers say they plan on having at least four technical lectures and expect to host 25 to 50 exhibitors and over 200 attendees. Organizers expect a good turn-out because the […]
MicroQSFP, QSFPDD and OSFP interconnect systems chosen by IEEE 802.3cd committee
Just recently in Vancouver, the Ethernet IEEE-802.3cd Standards Committee voted yes simultaneously to include MicroQSFP, QSFP-DD and OSFP interconnect modules as MDI (media dependent interface) options. The remarkable singular vote, of 66 yes, 0 no, and 14 abstain, seemed to reflect the wide and deep need to support different types of new and established enterprise, […]

Those interested in the growing field of wearable sensors can hear from leading experts in Flexible / Printed / Fabric Sensors at a workshop cosponsored by the Institute…
IEEE Free Tutorials walk through communications and networking hot topics
Rapidly evolving communications and networking standards, protocols, and test methods are forces to be reckoned with, especially when you are up against shrinking design cycles. Tapping into the expertise frequently available at conferences and trade shows is an excellent way to stay on top of the technology but it is not always practical. So access […]
