5G is now and what’s next?
5G deployments have only recently started, and releases beyond R15 will continue to tap into the tremendous potential of 5G. However, as a new generation of cellular technology typically appears every 8-10 years, 6G can be expected around 2030.

In the not too distance past, procuring a low phase noise 1 GHz source was very expensive, limiting it to only very high-end applications that could support the cost of incorporating this technology in the design.
Employing a compact, low-phase noise, high-frequency source in your design will combine the best attributes...

Lattice Semiconductor has introduced two low cost FPGA families with SERDES, the LatticeECP2M, introduced in 2007, and the most recent family, the LatticeECP3. The ECP2M and ECP3 FPGAs provide designers with the best of both worlds: a high performance, low-cost FPGA fabric with built-in high performance SERDES.
These...

With the recent rise of the Internet of Things (IoT), 14 billion devices are now connected. However, the growth of this is also significant, by 2020 it is predicted that over 50 billion devices will be connected. With these devices connected, systems are opened up for remote access and control. In turn, this has shown...

Safety, availability, and cost considerations can make performing thorough tests of embedded control devices
using the complete system impractical.
Hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation is a real-time test technique used to test these devices more efficiently.
During HIL test, the physical system that interfaces...

The fundamental process for making a tire hasn’t changed much in 50 years. The compounds, components, and automation used in executing the process have evolved; but the basic process of wrapping piles of rubber together and putting them in a press to get the finished product remains the same. Machine safety equipment,...

Devices that demand reductions in power consumption are increasing, such as cooling fans. If we looked at all process from fan production, usage in field, to scrapping the fan, the highest required energy comes from the power consumption during operation. In other words, reduction of the fan's power consumption is...
