September 2010
The September 2010 edition's features include Connectivity and Microprocessors, Microcontrollers & DSP, as well as Electronic Manufacturing & Production.
The first article in Connectivity, from information supplied by JDSU, discusses cabling and test considerations for 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10 GigE) local area networks. Then, the I/O-centric high-speed SUMIT interconnect standard is revealed by VersaLogic Corporation.
In Microprocessors, Microcontrollers & DSP, Lee K Koh at Microchip Technology reviews the company's latest range of PIC microcontrollers that integrates a full graphics subsystem that makes it easier to implement the same in new applications. Also in this feature, an application note from information supplied by Agilent Technologies indicates how to streamline field tests with the Agilent N9342C handheld spectrum analyzer (HSA).
Two articles are included in Electronic Manufacturing & Production: The first article, from information supplied by Microchip Technology, compares the novel 16-bit MCU microprocessors' operating modes in terms of functionality and typical current drawn. Finally, the second and concluding part of Dr John M. Dunn's article on understanding grounding concepts in EM simulators.
