Alejandro Buritica, senior solutions marketing manager at National Instruments, talks about what will be needed for mass-market testing of 5G devices, how to focus signals to overcome signal attenuation, and how to make over-the-air testing viable where leads are not exposed. » read more

Intelligent System Design—Why The Future Does Need Us!
By Frank Schirrmeister - 27 Jun, 2019 - Comments: 0

The month of June 2019 was very inspiring. At the Design Automation Conference (DAC) in Las Vegas, Cadence launched the next phase of our system-level strategy, dubbed “Intelligent System Design.” Later in the month I got to meet some real-life astronauts at the Paris Air Show in Le Bourget—where we exhibited this year for the first time. All of this made me think about the future. Coinci... » read more

Modernizing Test In Aerospace And Defense
By Luke Schreier - 07 May, 2019 - Comments: 0

These days, you can’t attend a conference or have a conversation with leaders of the aerospace and defense community without touching on the modernization of the sector. This includes the integration of new technologies and processes to address aging equipment and fleets. The scale of the challenges in this space is too large, the costs are too high, and the impact of failure is too great to ... » read more

Of Aero Shows And Safety
By Janusz Kitel - 28 Mar, 2019 - Comments: 0

At the end of February, I attended the Aero Show in India - and what a show it was. So many exhibitors from around the world, including all main players from the commercial and military sides of the aerospace industry. Visitors could see everything required to build a modern aircraft: from small components like specialized ICs, cables and connectors up to big parts, such as the jet engines... » read more

DO-254 Requirements Traceability
By Aldec - 27 Feb, 2019 - Comments: 0

DO-254 enforces a strict requirements-driven process for the development of commercial airborne electronic hardware. For DO-254, requirements must drive the design and verification activities, and requirements traceability helps to ensure this. This paper explains the rationale behind requirements traceability including its purpose and resulting benefits when done correctly. Click here to re... » read more

Adding NoCs To FPGA SoCs
By Ann Mutschler - 28 Jun, 2018 - Comments: 0

FPGA SoCs straddle the line between flexibility and performance by combining elements of both FPGAs and ASICs. But as they find a home in more safety- and mission-critical markets, they also are facing some of the same issues as standard SoCs, including the ability to move larger and larger amounts of data quickly throughout an increasingly complex device, and the difficulty in verifying and de... » read more
