New FMC-based daughter card and IP supports image sensors
Microsemi Corporation has announced new additions to its imaging/video solution supporting the popular Mobile Industry Processor Interface (MIPI) camera serial interface (CSI-2). The enhancements, including a new field programmable gate array (FPGA) mezzanine card (FMC)-based daughter card and new intellectual property (IP) which support image sensors with MIPI CSI-2 interfaces, enable customers to use the company’s power-efficient, highly ...
Taking one step closer to a functional fusion reactor
Providing clean and safe energy, which is free from carbon dioxide emissions, could be possible through fusion power. However, it is very difficult to imitate the solar energy process.Two plasma physicists at Chalmers University of Technology are one step closer to a functional fusion reactor, and have developed a model that could lead to better methods for decelerating runaway electrons, which could destroy a future reactor without warning.
Why COTS certification evidence matters
Placing an increased pressure on supplier to deliver an aircraft with far greater capabilities while complying with a growing demand for safety certification, is the growing demand for highly complex aircraft systems, as most advanced cockpits require software that is considered safety-critical. Guest blog by Stephen Olsen.
Digitalisation progressing in the electronics industry
Digitalisation is progressing and electronics is making its way into more and more areas of life. In this context, the functionality of the devices is essentially determined by the circuit board.At the PCB & EMS Marketplace and on the highlight day 'Sustainable EMS' in Hall B3, manufacturers of printed circuit boards and EMS providers will show concrete examples of how they are meeting increasing requirements in the automotive industry, medic...
