5G is now and what’s next?
5G deployments have only recently started, and releases beyond R15 will continue to tap into the tremendous potential of 5G. However, as a new generation of cellular technology typically appears every 8-10 years, 6G can be expected around 2030.

The creation of small, portable infusion pumps opened a new chapter in medical care. A patient can receive carefully metered and timed doses of medicine, without requiring a visit to the medical practitioner, allowing life to be less restrictive. Ambulatory pumps have been developed to deliver insulin, nutritive supplements...

Medical displays specialize in reproducing clear images with high brightness and contrast while maintaining color accuracy. In recent years, there has been a push for smaller and thinner displays in the LCD and LED panel market. In addition, increased performance and image quality has increased heat generation. Therefore,...

Some power supplies specify a peak load capability to support loads that are higher than the nominal continuous power for short periods. In these applications the average power required is typically significantly lower than the peak demand.
Applications that require high peak currents include print heads, pumps, motors,...

Datacenter infrastructures today are often made up of a grid of modules or nodes, each with storage and compute power in a single chassis. This ‘scale-out’ architecture can enable data centers to better meet capacity and performance. This architecture however, needs an ever expanding amount of space that is...

Fiber optic cable no longer stops at the base of the cell tower. As mobile communication network operators deploy advanced 3G and LTE/4G networks, many are pulling fiber right up the tower. Operators have found that fiber-to-the-antenna (FTTA) architectures offer a number of advantages over legacy coaxial systems, including...

For over three decades, power management efficiency and cost showed steady improvement as innovations in power MOSFET structures, technology, and circuit topologies paced the growing need for electrical power in our daily lives. In the new millennium, however, the rate of improvement slowed as the silicon power MOSFET...

Reliability is one of the most important factors that a designer needs to consider when specifying components or subsystems – particularly when the component in question is the power supply on which an entire assembly relies. And yet reliability figures are possibly the most ambiguous on any datasheet – including...
