Miniature high-density rectangular connectors save weight and space
As the demand for smaller and lighter product assemblies is driving the continued miniaturization of almost every electronic system, the need to connect these assemblies requires connector manufacturers to develop miniature connectors that take up less space yet perform the same as their larger counterparts. Particular market sectors where this demand is great include mil/aero and motorsport, areas where leading connector specialist Lane Electron...
Top 5 power products for February
Electronic Specifier takes a look at the top power products to have been released in February.
Channel emulation toolset speeds 5G NTN deployment
The S8825A Satellite and Aerospace Channel Emulation Toolset from Keysight Technologies delivers advanced channel emulation capabilities that can speed deployment of non-terrestrial networks (NTN) vital to many new 5G services.
COTS-based radiation-hardened power converters
As reliance on communication and weather satellites grows and space research expands in scope and mission, new technology is required to help speed spaceflight system design and production. Microchip Technology has announced the expansion of its SA50-120 power converter family with nine new units based on its Commercial Off-the-Shelf (COTS) technology. This technology provides developers with space-qualified power converters that help to minimise...
An ear to the ground for next-gen satellite connectivity
Vicor’s Factorised Power Architecture (FPA) is helping Hanwha Phasor revolutionise satellite broadband connectivity to deliver extremely high current at low voltage for uninterrupted mobile communications
Alphabet again exits drones: others again jump in
In 2017, after four years of setbacks and crashes, Alphabet shut its project flying solar-powered fixed-wing drones in the upper atmosphere to beam the internet to those cut-off. Facebook then exited its similar project, but the Chinese aerospace industry, Airbus, Boeing, and NASA are progressing them very well.

6G communications: The trillion dollar battle commences
This webinar shares some findings from the major new IDTechEx report, '6G Communications Market, Devices, Materials 2021-2041'.
Low-power radiation tolerant PolarFire FPGAs available
Microchip Technology has announced it is shipping engineering silicon for its RT PolarFire FPGA while the device is being qualified to spaceflight component reliability standards. Designers can now create hardware prototypes with all the same electrical and mechanical performance that the space-qualified RT PolarFire FPGAs will provide for high-bandwidth on-orbit processing systems with low power consumption and the ability to withstand radiation...
