The Physics Department at the University of San Diego is building a model of atoms moving in an optical lattice, attempting to cool the atoms to near absolute zero and then move them into a triangular lattice formation using pulses of laser light. To achieve this, a Spectrum Instrumentation M4i.6622-x8 Arbitrary Waveform Generator was used.

Bel Magnetic Solutions, a Bel group company, and a global leader in the design and manufacturing of MagJack® Integrated Connector Modules (ICM), introduces 10GBASE-T single port 60W, 4-pair PoE (Power over Ethernet) MagJack® ICMs that are designed for those looking to upgrade their product performance for maximum speed at 60W of power over standard Ethernet cable.

Anritsu Company enhances its Signal Quality Analyzer-R MP1900A BERT with expanded PCI Express^® (PCIe) receiver test capability to support emerging PCIe 6.0 designs using PAM4 32-Gbaud technology.

Samtec announces a high-performance test assembly with performance up to 70 GHz (BE70A Series, Bulls Eye^®). It uses a single block design for ganged cabling and compression mount to the PCB, making it easier to install and eliminates soldering.

Keysight Technologies, Inc., and ROHM Semiconductor, jointly announce a PathWave Advanced Design System (ADS)-compatible workspace that enables designers to perform pre-compliance testing on virtual prototypes of switched-mode power supply (SMPS) designs.

Ranatec, a part of Qamcom Group, announced it has added a panel mountable, high speed feedthru filter to its product portfolio. Based on highly inventive technology for test, measure, filter, and block signals, Ranatec’s RI 4194 LAN 10 Gbps Feedthru Filter represents the newest advancement in I/O solutions for RF enclosures. 

Trackwise Designs has signed a three-year agreement to manufacture and supply flexible printed circuit (FPC) boards to a UK manufacturer of electric vehicle (EVs). The agreement has the potential to be worth up to £38  million over the period.

Viavi Solutions Inc., introduced test and measurement offerings for optical lab, production and manufacturing environments, enhancing the industry’s most complete line of photonic test modules.

Jabil Inc., announced that its Photonics business unit, a leading provider of customized end-to-end design, manufacturing, and test solutions for optical communications products, successfully completed live network trials for the application of 100G in unamplified metro regional link scenarios.

Today’s vehicles support a multitude of wireless standards requiring high-performance antennas, such as satellite navigation (GNSS), tire pressure monitoring systems (TPMS), keyless entry (e.g. UWB) and cellular connectivity (4G, 5G). The challenge for tier one component suppliers and OEM vehicle designers is to ensure optimal performance of individual antenna modules and entire vehicles after the systems have been integrated.
