To record a clinical quality electrocardiograph (ECG) signal in the presence of noise generated by ambient environment and the patient's body movements, this ambulatory patient heart monitor uses patented signal processing technology. The Model 100 uses Texas Instruments' MSP430F149 ultra-low power microcontroller for data acquisition and pre-processing and achieves up to 48 hours of real-time heart monitoring during patients' everyday activities. Optimized for ultra-low power, the MCU's core and peripherals significantly extend the battery life on the portable monitor. Learn more about Texas Instruments' MSP430 microcontrollers.
Our LinkedIn systems and product design engineering group discusses if they are happy with their decision of remaining a technical contributor instead of becoming a manager.
Against a backdrop of mounting product complexity and a need to keep a lid on development costs, companies are recognizing a need to make simulation a more integral part of the design process. In response, vendors in the CAD world are building out CAE functionality as part of their CAD suites while simulation vendors are building tighter integrations to leading CAD tools. Keith Meintjes, Ph.D., Practice Manager, Simulation and Analysis at CIMdata, Inc., joins Design News CAD Editor Beth Stackpole in this radio program to explore the new face of integrated CAD and CAE, how companies are benefitting from this tighter partnership between platforms, and how integrating CAE earlier in the development cycle pays off in optimized product designs.
