Ferrites to Kill Ringing or Not?

Could your signal integrity solution be causing the problem? Ferrites typically eliminate ringing, but when improperly selected, they create the very oscillations they're meant to suppress. The secret lies in understanding impedance characteristics—choose wrong, and your clean digital signal transforms into an unwanted rollercoaster.RetryClaude can make mistakes. Please double-check responses.

Do Devices on PCBs Really See a Higher CDM-like ESD Risk?

There are several scenarios where integrated circuits (ICs) are mounted on printed circuit boards (PCBs) which might be charged-up and experience CDM-like events.

ESD Standards: An Annual Progress Report

In ESD control programs, standard test methods for product qualification and periodic evaluation of wrist straps, garments, ionizers, worksurfaces, grounding, flooring, shoes, static dissipative planar materials, shielding bags, packaging, electrical soldering/desoldering hand tools, and flooring/footwear systems have been developed to ensure uniformity around the world.

CCC Certification of Automobiles and Automotive Parts

China is one of the most attractive markets for automotive manufacturers in Europe and the United States. There are not many other markets that are growing as fast or that have more potential than China.

The Capacitive Discharge Test

This article will define the test requirements, and discuss the methods used to obtain results. Limitations of the equipment used will also be discussed, so that lab personnel can be made aware and do their best to minimize tolerance errors.

Transients in Secondary Circuits

Richard Nute examines how transformers behave when subjected to transient overvoltage, both magnetically and capacitively.
