Learn how optically - isolated relays can improve the performance of data acquisition systems and industrial machines.
However, solid-state devices are not created equal when it comes to these performance advantages. Optically-isolated solid state relays, in particular, can outshine other solid-state devices...
Solid State Relays and Contactors (SSRs) have been available in one form or the other for over 40 years. Traditional Electromechanical Relays and Contactors (EMRs) as well as Mercury Displacement Relays and Contactors (MDRs) have been available even longer.
However, current Environmental regulations now make the future...
For reliable and efficient system verification and debug of DDR3/DDR4 memory designs, comprehensive compliance test and analysis tools are required. While measurement capability and usability are critical to speed up the verification and debug process, it is equally important to choose the right probing solution and use...

Although not part of the PCI Express spec, nontransparent bridging is completely consistent with it and can support multiprocessor systems with only minimal software initialization efforts.
For PCI Express technology to realize its full potential as the interconnect solution for chip-to-chip and backplane switching...
While switch manufacturers play a large role in a device’s reliability, the environmental conditions the switch will be exposed to is another significant factor that should not be overlooked. Switch life expectancy and even critical switch failure issues...
Temperature measurement, current monitoring, power supply sequencing, fan control and fault logging are typical board control functions used in complex circuit designs. System designers are faced with continual pressure to meet their development schedules, and need to implement control functions with minimal effort and...
