Designers for electronic products are challenged by requests for customized and differentiated complex products in short time frames. In this environment two factors become crucial: flexibility and simplicity. For many years ASICS or FPGAs allowed engineers to meet very specific product design requirements. However, the...
Functional safety actively prevents the failure of a system from causing harm to people and property. Developers often need to certify a system as compliant with a functional safety standard.
In this report, you’ll learn about functional safety and explore functional safety terms, such as dependability and availability,...
An integral part of modern RF/microwave circuit design is circuit simulation and evaluation in which scattering parameters (S-parameters) for each element of a system are utilized to predict the overall small signal performance as the elements are cascaded to form the entire system.
This paper describes...
Radar, satellite communications and 5G NR use AAS with phased array antennas for beamforming. Hybrid beamforming combines the flexibility of digital beamforming with the efficiency of analog beamforming.
Increasing integration enables compact and cost-efficient AAS. To achieve accurate, reliable and efficient beamforming,...
With the recent rise of the Internet of Things (IoT), 14 billion devices are now connected. However, the growth of this is also significant, by 2020 it is predicted that over 50 billion devices will be connected. With these devices connected, systems are opened up for remote access and control. In turn, this has shown...
