Summertime brings family vacations (holidays) and driving or flying long distances. Gas (petrol) prices are on the rise, so many people are rethinking the economies of personal electrical vehicles. Additionally, global logistics companies are adopting electric vans and trucks for local deliveries. More EVs are driving the need for increased EV charging infrastructure. It’s common…
“Antenna-to-bits” simplifies describing complex RF signal chains. Yet real-world RF signal chain development is not simple. This is especially true in mmWave and microwave bands. In Samtec’s world, that usually covers 18 – 110 GHz frequency ranges. Emerging antenna-to-bits architectures in 5G, Radar, EW, SATCOM, and instrumentation applications necessitate careful design tradeoffs due to the sensitive nature of mmWave bands….
“Do. Or do not. There is no try.” – Yoda, Grand Master of the Jedi Order Any self-respecting blog on “gEEks” should refer to Star Wars, right? In any case, the sage wisdom of Yoda continues to influence the Samtec gEEk spEEk team. Like Yoda says, the choice is to “Do”. The gEEk® spEEk Signal…
Embedded computing solutions are increasing in functionality, density and performance. Fast growing applications range from 5G and ATE to Machine Vision and Edge Computing. High-speed optical communications offer faster throughput and scalability, yet many system architects and hardware engineers are hesitant to move to the optical domain. Embedded Optical Solutions Several solutions on the market…
As consumers, wireless technology is often taken for granted. How difficult would everyday life be without it? Can I open my garage door today? How do I turn on my Smart TV? Where are my social networks? Most of our daily wireless connections – from Wi-Fi and Bluetooth to cellular, SatNav and GPS – use…
5G is coming! 5G is coming! Is 5G coming? The first two phrases literally described the global 5G rollout at the beginning of 2020. Handset manufacturers, equipment providers, mobile carriers and industry analysts anticipated a strong year. Is 5G still coming? Well, that depends. Like all parts of life, the 5G rollout has been upended…
Given the COVID-19 pandemic crisis, it appears the WFH “trend” may become permanent. Indirectly, or maybe directly, the present situation has provided us with yet another way to engage with design engineers and SI experts globally. At home, video streaming is growing exponentially. Professionally, webinars abound on many topics. So, without further ado . ….
