Connectors must ensure signal integrity even when the environment is far from benign; great forces of shock and vibration, and extremes of temperature may be experienced. Wendy Jane Bourne, Technical & Marketing Engineer with Harwin, explores these strains on high reliability connectors in this article from ES Design magazine.

Agilent Technologies has announced several key enhancements to its high-performance MXG and cost-effective EXG X-Series vector signal generators. The enhancements are designed to improve measurement accuracy, accelerate research and development, and provide in-depth signal simulation for even the most comprehensive receiver verification.

Peregrine Semiconductor Corporation annonce aujourd’hui que ses synthétiseurs et diviseurs de fréquence PLL basés sur la technologie UltraCMOS équipent six satellites de télécommunication Globalstar mis en orbite le 6 février dernier. Construits en France par Thales Alenia Space, ces satellites en orbite terrestre basse transmettent dans le monde entier les données et communications au...

Agilent Technologies today announced that it has enhanced the capabilities of its Signal Studio for Global Navigation Satellite Systems software and added real-time multi-satellite simulation of China's Beidou system.

STMicroelectronics announce that its Teseo II single-chip satellite-tracking ICs were successful in the very first ground location test using Europe’s own independent navigation system, Galileo. The tests were conducted in collaboration with the European Space Agency. Last month, the first position fix of longitude, latitude and altitude using the four Galileo satellites currently in orbit was performed by the ESA at its Technology Centre in th...

Peregrine Semiconductor announce that the six Globalstar mobile communication satellites, launched into orbit on February 6, have its UltraCMOS Phase Locked Loop frequency synthesizer and prescaler devices designed in. Built by Thales Alenia Space in France, the low-Earth orbit satellites transmit audio and data communications for Globalstar’s mobile voice and data customers worldwide.

Aeroflex has announced its capability to simulate Wide Area Augmentation System LPV approaches by adding this critical new feature to their GPSG-1000 Portable GPS Simulator.

The new R4 and F4 Series GPS modules from Linx make it cost effective to add GPS capability to new and existing applications through a simple serial interface. Designed with the SiRF-IV chipset, the R4 and F4 Series offer enhanced GPS solutions over older SiRF-III, with improved accuracy to 2.5 meters, 2X faster cold start times using CGEE 3 day satellite prediction, built-in jammer remover, and better reliability by tracking up to 48 satellites ...

CSR today announced that its SiRFstarV, SiRFprima and SiRFatlas location platforms are now able to acquire and track satellites and utilise location data from the recently activated BeiDou Satellite Navigation System (BDS) to help these devices achieve best-in-class location positioning and navigation performance anywhere in the world.

Radiall has expanded its broad range of SMP products with SMP-LOCK connectors featuring a robust locking mechanism, which dramatically increases the retention force of the interface and prevents accidental disconnection. Offered with a limited number of receptacles and straight or right-angle plugs for standard cables, SMP-LOCK connectors can be easily customized to fit preferred cable types or to meet the needs of specific microwave modules.
