GreenSoft Technology Inc. of South Pasadena, Calif. is providing a searchable database of environmental compliance and component information. The company’s GreenData tool is a subset of GreenSoft’s component database that allows companies to send in a parts list to get match showing the percentage of environmental compliance data against the scrubbed bill of materials (BOM). “GreenData provides a snapshot of the data we provide to electronics manufacturers,” says Larry Yen, president and CEO of GreenSoft. “Documenting environmental compliance continues to be a concern for manufacturers and we wanted to give people a look at what we can do.” Yen notes that companies can dneter a part number and get an instant result – and if GreenSoft doesn’t have the information you need, Yen says they will get it quickly.
Thanks to embedded electronics, medical devices are getting smaller and smarter than ever. Pacemakers and implantable defibrillators are now able to call physicians. MRIs, CT scanners, and ultrasound machines are gaining mobility. And the venerable Band-Aid may soon be able to detect illnesses ranging from fevers to heart arrhythmias. On February 21, join Design News senior editor Charles Murray for a wide-ranging discussion, "Embedded Angles for Medical Products," which will explore the latest developments in medical electronics. The discussion will examine advances in medical device technology and offer an inside look at the embedded electronics behind it.
