Over the past few years, the technology of energy harvesting has emerged from the laboratory to the marketplace. In practice, however, it has been difficult to efficiently capture the ambient or "waste" energy generated by many practical devices suited for this purpose, due to their very low voltage and power...
MIPI D-PHY is a practical PHY for typical camera and display applications. It is designed to replace traditional parallel bus based on LVCMOS or LVDS. However, many processors and displays/cameras still use an RGB, CMOS, or MIPI Display Pixel Interface (DPI) as interface. A bridge is often required to connect a processor...
Weatherproofing options for coaxial connections at cell sites have changed and expanded along with the cell sites themselves. Today’s more complex cell site designs demand a new type of weatherproofing solution to protect vulnerable connection points at the antenna and the remote radio unit (RRU).
