Software quality must be built into the software from the very beginning. Quality cannot be added near production through rigorous testing but must be on the development teams’ minds throughout the entire development process.
Renesas is taking a unique approach to assist product developers by providing fully...



As the world continues to get smaller, and millions of pounds of chemical products are shipped between countries daily, a Global Harmonized System (GHS) is being implemented to aid in the communication of hazards and risks.
The UN Conference on the Environment and Development (UNCED) met in 1992 and decided that global...



This webinar introduces the Doherty amplifier as a special case of the “balanced” amplifier genre.
We will discuss design & test challenges and show implementation variants that make it possible to increase output power and improve efficiency.
Using a dual input Doherty measurement setup as a...



The ongoing, rapid proliferation of wireless devices and accelerating demand for bandwidth-intensive data services is putting increasing strain on point-to-point radio backhaul radio networks and cellular base stations, particularly in densely populated metro environments.
To mitigate this strain, mobile operators...



Upcoming technologies such as 5G for wireless communications and the increasing amount of integrated electronic systems in modern vehicles require new solutions for EMC testing. In addition, manufacturers are looking for time saving test routines and intuitive test software that enable fast precompliance and compliance...



Test engineers spend as much as 50 percent of their time (or even more in some cases) actively dealing with obsolescence in their test program sets.
Read about different solutions in the marketplace to help you overcome the challenges you face today.
Also explore best practices...

Design and verification engineers will be learning the importance of ensuring a stable operation and of reducing the risk of failure after any change over the product’s lifetime. Both require a solid characterization of the memory interface.
We will be discussing test and tool requirements such as bandwidth,...



Adding security to a device costs extra money, time, power consumption and makes everything worse. The only reason for adding security to a device is the need to improve marketing – security components help to sell more products. To participate in the evolution of Industry 4.0, the Internet of Things and cloud technologies...



Digital Signal Processing (DSP) technology continues to transform radar systems and wireless cellular Base Transceiver Station (BTS) systems. DSP technology has made possible the dramatic gains in radar sensitivity, range and image quality, as well as the gains in the cell phone radio performance, data bandwidth and power...



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,...



In traditional networking management, it can take a lot of time to configure each network device with duplicate settings, as well as perform firmware synchronization. If, after deployment, an issue appears without an obvious method of solving, it can quickly affect the efficiency of the network.
B+B SmartWorx IXM...



Deembedding, often a necessary and complex task, is made easier with an integrated hardware and software solution. Whether you are debugging a high-speed interface such as DDR or PCIe, characterising a fast clock or analysing a complex RF signal, you want to see the real signal and not artifacts of the test setup such...



Although it has been with us in some form and under different names for many years, the Internet of Things (IoT) is suddenly the next big thing. The ability to connect, communicate with, and remotely manage an incalculable number of networked, automated devices via the Internet is becoming pervasive, from the commercial...



Medical device designers have become increasingly interested in the Linux ® operating system (OS), largely because of its open source model. Linux lets the designer leverage a large pool of developers, a rich legacy of source code, and industry-standard POSIX APIs.
But Linux may not be the right choice for all...
