Signal ASICs for inline processes
To meet the demand for signal electronics for fast real-time signal conversion in inline processes, MAZeT has expanded its range of signal ASICs. The range comprises the MTI04 and MTI08 TransImpedance Amplifiers (TIAs) and analogue converters and the MDDC04AQ and MCDC04EQ current-to-digital converters.
Debug platform is 50% faster than competing devices
A debugging solution which reduces the time to identify bugs in a design by up to 50% compared to traditional signal- or transaction-level debug methods has been released by Cadence Design Systems. In addition to the Indago debug platform, the company has also introduced three debugging apps that plug into the platform and can be used with other verification tools to provide a single integrated and synchronised debug solution for testbench, verif...
Mixed signal methodology offers high automation
The Intelligent IP Mixed Signal Design Flow methodology developed by the Design Automation group at the Fraunhofer Institute for ICs IIS offers an unparalleled degree of automation, especially for the otherwise time-consuming, error-prone analogue portion of the design.Mixed-signal ICs are found in many of today's microelectronics, from safety-critical automotive applications to medical and aerospace systems.
Software speeds power supply architecture development
Intersilhasunveiled PowerNavigator version 5.2 with added features, a free, downloadable GUI that helps system designers quickly configure, validate, monitor and optimise their power supply architectures. Combined with the drag-and-drop GUI interface, PowerNavigator 5.2 makes it straightforward to change features and functions of a digital power supply design without writing a single line of code.
Media server features media processing management software
The first dedicated media server on the market with built-in media processing management software has been introduced by ADLINK Technology. The MCS-2040 offers six times the performance of pure software transcoding solutions and reserves more than 80% of CPU capacity for customer applications.
I/O module enhances testability of assemblies
GOEPEL electronics has added the SFX-5296LX, a next generation mixed signal I/O module to its JTAG/Boundary Scan hardware platform SCANFLEX. It offers a powerful solution to make even non-scannable partitions testable through boundary scan. This, for example, allows testing of assemblies with just one Boundary Scan IC.
MAZeT devises a redesign strategy for ASICs
To address the discontinuation of ASIC components, MAZeT has devised a redesign strategy for digital and mixed-signal devices. The new ASIC will be compatible with the original ASIC, both in terms of its functionality and connection options.
On the road to software defined power architecture
Software defined power architecture is increasingly being seen as the future for advanced board power management to bring energy efficiency and power-optimised capabilities in datacomms and networking applications by 2020, says Patrick Le Fèvre, Ericsson Power Modules.
Low-latency platform handles CERN's colossal data needs
Integrated Device Technologyhas entered a three-year collaboration with the European Organisation for Nuclear Research, CERN (Centre Européenne pour la Recherche Nucléaire), with the goal of usingIDT’s RapidIO technologyto help improve data acquisition and analysis in some of the world’s most advanced fundamental physics research.
Interfaces that touch you back
The industry is working on a multitude of different haptic effects for tomorrow’s touch screens and buttons, writes Sally Ward-Foxton for ES Design magazine.
