In our increasingly electronic world, electromagnetic interference (EMI) poses a significant challenge to the reliability and performance of electronic devices. Shielding is a critical technique used in electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) to mitigate the effects of EMI. This article explores the concept of shielding, its importance in EMC, various shielding materials and their applications, and practical tips for designing effective shielding solutions.

The National Association for Amateur Radio (the ARRL) has filed comments with the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in response to its request for input on reducing or eliminating unnecessary regulatory requirements.

The U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has released an updated version of its Privacy Framework in an effort to better align it with its Cybersecurity Guidelines.

Watchdogs are essential system design components that reset systems for recovery. Originally standalone timer ASICs, they're now integrated into power management devices, voltage supervisors, and microcontrollers to enhance functional safety. This article explains various watchdog timers, their interactions, and design strategies for multiple watchdogs, particularly in functionally safe multicore systems requiring independence.

This versatile field device generates signals that mimic various sensors to test and calibrate equipment. It helps technicians troubleshoot connections and verify system performance. Portable and battery-powered, it's designed for on-site diagnostic work in industrial environments.

Legal problems arise as a result of most recalls. These can take the form of regulatory problems, product liability lawsuits, retailer problems, and damage to a company’s brand reputation. Well before undertaking a recall, product sellers need to consider what problems might occur and what they need to do to minimize them.

This article will illustrate why it is necessary to introduce the control-oriented model to hazard-based safety engineering (HBSE), based on a typical large core switching fan-tray architecture design and related failure model. The authors also provide detailed design and evaluation guidelines, which can ensure the control of random hardware failure and avoid systematic failure (both hardware and software), then achieve the safety target (i.e., safety integrity level).

U.S. cellular service provider T-Mobile has reportedly received permission from the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to conduct experimental testing of equipment using 6G technology.

As the world actively explores the potential benefits of the application and uses of artificial intelligence (AI), the European Union (EU) is taking action to position itself as the leading global AI player.

This series of articles delves into the design principles of power filters for switched-mode power converters and similar applications, focusing on conducted and radiated emissions. Part 2 will examine specific aspects of switched power converters.

This article describes the parameters that can be used to tailor your application of MIL-STD-461 RE102, such as frequency ranges, designing notches, and relaxing limits.

The charged device model spark itself is not just resistive; it often has extra inductance or L-C energy storage. These plus hardware properties affect the CDM waveform and affect methods to correlate alternate CDM test methods to standard JEDEC CDM.
