While there are many attractive use cases for AI
in manufacturing, this game-changing technology is still at the start
of its journey to adoption. The sophisticated connected industrial
machinery that epitomizes Industry 4.0, combined with the desire to
further optimize manufacturing processes, makes industrial
manufacturing a prime candidate for adoption of artificial
intelligence.
Considerations when choosing between a wireless
module and a wireless SoC
So, you want to save money by using a low-cost system-on-a-chip (SoC)?
If you're trying to decide between using a w...

The sinc filter generates a high-fidelity feedback
signal for the motor control algorithm, and it provides rapid detection
of overload currents in the case of fault conditions. In this
application...
Power electronics is rapidly evolving thanks to
Wide Bandgap semiconductors. Market analysts estimate a growth in power
components of over $10 billion over the next 6 years. It is a strong
growth if analyzed in the context of hybrid and electric vehicles, and
the need for a wise world energy management via environmental solutions
such as solar.

In September, Keysight Technologies held the
finals of its IoT Innovation Challenge in New York City. As one of the
judges, I had the opportunity to see and hear firsthand from the six
finalists as they presented their designs in the Smart Land and Smart
Water categories. One of the finalists for Smart Land was a team of
undergraduates from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology: Nikhil
Murthy, Gabriella Garcia, Sunny Tran, and Irin Ghosh.
Secure data encryption is essential for a wide
variety of mission-critical applications pertaining to both civilian
matters and national security. These sectors both require comprehensive
safeguards t...
To reduce the damage caused to the environment by
the emissions produced by fossil-fueled vehicles, in the automotive
sector the growing trend is to develop powertrains for electric and
hybrid vehicles (EV and HEV). There are also climate-changing
emissions, such as CO2,
that are added to other pollutants, which contribute to the greenhouse
effect and consequently to global warming. One-fifth of greenhouse gas
emissions are caused by the transport sector..

As software becomes more complex, the
chances of human error greatly increase, opening up potential for
security and safety risks. This webinar shows how combining NVIDIA
hardware with Ada and SPARK delivers robustness and security, improving
efficiency and safety in the development pipeline.

For many applications, ultra-low-power operation
has been the most important electronics design criterion in recent
years. Power levels have dropped dramatically, from the milliwatt to
microwatt or even nanowatt range. Energy consumption and the need to
replace or recharge the battery remain a key challenge for the adoption
of the internet of things, particularly…
In a world where automobiles are increasingly
autonomous and semiconductors are a key innovation factor, sensors
become crucial, especially for dealing with moving objects. Radar
sensors use the frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) technique to
reliably detect moving or stationary objects such as cars, trains,
trucks, and loads, even in extreme weather conditions. They are also
an…
Stepper and permanent-magnet synchronous motors
increasingly serve control applications that require a high degree of
efficiency and outstanding performance. Current technology for motor
control includes the use of microelectronics for improved control of
speed, position, and torque, as well as greater efficiency. Stepper
motors are electromechanical devices capable of converting electrical
impulses into discrete mechanical…
