‘Signal Integrity Problems’
An Electronicstalk guide
Start with the news release Low-power network platform for harsh environments from Axiomtek, which we summarised at the time by saying "Axiomtek has announced the NA-320FL, a fanless 1U compact network appliance platform with 6GB LANs that supports the low-power Intel Atom processors D510 1.66GHz with Intel ICH8M PCH chipset.". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release QDR and DDR SRAMs for reducing power consumption from Cypress Semiconductor: "Cypress Semiconductor has announced Quad Data Rate (QDR) and Double Data Rate (DDR) SRAMs at 36-Mbit and 18-Mbit densities, for networking use in medical imaging and military signal-processing.".
In December 2010, we covered the news from Magna-Power Electronics - take a look at High slew-rate option for power supplies which says: "Power supply expert Magna-Power Electronics has released a high slew-rate output option to meet the demands of fast-performance DC applications such as battery charging and photovoltaic emulation.".
Take a look also at the news release from Allegro Microsystems, Sensor IC withstands harsh automotive environments, as well as Rugged wire cable system allows for blind mating from Samtec, and Tektronix offers architecture for PCI Express 3.0 from Tektronix.
