In response to the continuing challenges caused by the global pandemic, the organizers of EDI CON CHINA have decided to change the program for 2021 to ensure timely delivery of technical conference material to engineers across the country. Today, Horizon House announced that instead of a large in-person event this year, EDI CON CHINA 2021 will occur as EDI CON ACROSS CHINA 2021, which will include a virtual event paired with localized in-person conferences throughout China.

After months of waiting, we have seen Samsung Electronics’ applied extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography technology for D1z DRAM in mass production.

ExpressPCB® is excited to announce the release of its Plus PCB Design Suite (ExpressSCH Plus™ and ExpressPCB Plus® version 3.0). Highlights of the added features include an integrated search and download for components using SnapEDA®, schematic link between ExpressSCH Plus and ExpressPCB Plus, as well as netlist validation between the printed circuit board (PCB) layout and the schematic.

Keysight Technologies, Inc., has introduced the i7090 massively parallel board test system.  This is a category of automated test equipment designed to perform tests in parallel, on multiple printed circuit board assemblies (PCBA), to achieve high volume throughput which speeds time-to-market and reduces cost-of-test.

Keysight Technologies, Inc., announced the AresONE-S 400GE test system which enables network equipment manufacturers and data center operators to validate complex, mixed 400 gigabit Ethernet (GE) and lower-speed networks and devices.

The steady extension of the Rohde & Schwarz portfolio of specialty power supplies continues with the first two models in the R&S NGU series of high precision SMUs, providing both maximum sensitivity and accuracy to reliably measure currents from nA to A in a single sweep.

Picotest.com, has released a 2-port ‘Browser’ probe especially designed for measuring power integrity applications including VRM (Voltage Regulator Module) impedance and stability and power distribution network (PDN) impedance. The probe comes with multiple interchangeable sized heads allowing fast and repeatable power rail testing capability.

Kyocera Corporation has introduced a 0.5mm-pitch floating board-to-board connector series (F/P^*1 = 170%) for high-speed 16Gbps data transmission. Sold under the 5652 Series designation, the connectors can float within ±0.85mm for easy and accurate mating. They are available now.

Keysight Technologies, Inc., and Transphorm, Inc., have announced the availability of a power supply reference design that enables engineers to identify and correct design errors before building hardware, thereby lowering product costs and speeding time to market.

EDI CON Online, an interactive event that was held every Tuesday in October 2020, provided training and keynote sessions for engineers working in RF, microwave, EMC/EMI, signal integrity, and power integrity. The event held live online sessions that are still available to watch on demand, presented notable results with more than 7830+ sessions viewed and 6400+ unique registrants to date.
