Fundamentals of Electrostatic Discharge – Part Three: Basic ESD Control Procedures and Materials
Basic static control procedures and materials that will become part of your ESD control program.
A Challenge of Portable Radio Transmitters Used in Close Proximity
Intentional RF transmitting devices seem to be everywhere. Smart phones, tablets and similar devices provide the ability for users to be connected to the internet any time, from any location using nearly any device. Other than the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness and the inner canyon of the Grand Canyon, it may be difficult to find any location without WiFi available.
Electromagnetic Analysis of Cable Harnesses in an Automotive Environment
This article shows how electromagnetic simulation tools can be used to investigate effects of high-speed signals in cable harnesses in a vehicle: cross talk, radiation and interference with a receiving antenna. Results are presented for two types of digital sequences and compared with standards. Cable shielding is designed to be adequate without adding unnecessary weight.
