Test fixtures are becoming more important in 5G, 6G, and phased-array designs. This article explains methods to optimize test ...
Though the process of designing a chip using open-source tools may seem daunting at first, it’s an invaluable learning ...
Product security and reliability are major concerns in the semiconductor and PCB fabrication industries. Because of this, ...
In Part 1, we explored the challenges of implementing machine learning and real-time analytics in semiconductor ...
GPUs use a network of generators and frequency converters to supply aircraft with 400 Hz power during ground testing. That’s necessary so that technicians can simulate in-flight conditions while they ...
In this paper, the radiated emission of a microcontroller integrated circuit is investigated by rotating the test board in a transverse electromagnetic (TEM) cell measurement. The dependence of the ...
A Design-for-test (DfT) technique is proposed in this paper for a test method, by which detecting open defects occurring interconnects between 3D stacked SRAM IC and a printed circuit board and among ...
If PCBs aren’t tested, errors and defects missed during the manufacturing process could eventually lead to malfunctions and product failures in the field. After a PCB board is manufactured and ...
New recyclable electronics could be critical to curbing e-waste, scientists argue, especially because these circuit boards ...
I create a control unit for chaser animations with two circuit boards—one for logic and one for high-voltage control. The animation speed and brightness are adjustable.
