The White House touted the U.S. government's plan to spend $11 billion on semiconductor-related research and development and said it was launching the $5 billion National Semiconductor Technology Center.

Within the PCB industry, FR-4 materials have long been accepted as “standard” materials. However, their use was not specific to the types of board being designed. For today’s high-speed, high-frequency designs, careful engineering and material selection relative to the resin systems and glass weave styles needed will ensure that a product will work as specified, as designed, and as manufactured. In addition, the finish of the copper used in the signal and power layers also needs to be controlled in order to ensure that loss goals are met.

DesignCon is the premier high-speed communications and system design conference and exposition, offering industry-critical engineering education in the heart of Silicon Valley. Every year, there are several new hot technologies that are featured by exhibitors. For DesignCon 2024, it was all about 224G systems.

Infineon Technologies AG detailed its plans to highlight the industry’s broadest range of power electronic devices during the 2024 Applied Power Electronics Conference (APEC), February 25-29.

The EEcosystem™ Electronics Engineering podcast and platform proudly announced a series of strategic enhancements, underscoring its commitment to serve and bring value to electronics engineers and the industry. 

Rohde & Schwarz will host its annual Demystifying EMC (DEMC2024) industry event on February 6, 2024.

Driven by the high margins of automotive, more M&As are expected in the rapidly evolving power GaN ecosystem.

In the final installment of this blog series, Benjamin Dannan, Heidi Barnes, and Steve Sandler continue their discussion of how to calculate the minimum CMRR with a PDN impedance measurement using a 2-port probe, demonstrating how to measure a sub-40 µΩ impedance when using an isolator that has sufficient CMRR using two different VNAs, the Bode 100 and E5061B. Achieving sub-40 µΩ impedance measurements is challenging, but completely realistic with the proper test equipment. 

Keysight and researchers from France's CNRS, Lille University, and Osaka University have broken the 1 Tbps barrier. 

Synopsys and Ansys have announced that they have entered into a definitive agreement under which Synopsys will acquire Ansys.
