Shrinking product development cycles and increasing circuit complexity are requiring engineers to rethink how they design their electronic circuits. To meet these challenges, design engineers have turned to using measurements and simulations throughout the design process. By combining these, design engineers not only save time and money through fewer prototypes but also improve quality because they can integrate real-life measurements into the simulation process. In this session, learn how you can use measurements and simulations to help at the board level, select your next electric component, and improve the circuit verification process. Technologies discussed include, National Instruments LabVIEW, SignalExpress and Electronics Workbench Multisim.

Modern Health Care
First, let's define "no-compromise." In an ideal configuration, this lamp would use a high-brightness LED (HBLED) that is built into a small, integrated package and is able to produce a large quantity of focused light, operate with a high level of reliability and generate no audible noise. Is this difficult? Yes, but it is possible. Read More
