The Siglent SNA5000X-E vector network analyser (VNA) series, designed for RF measurement, is now available from Telonic Instruments. The two models in the SNA5000X-E series can be used for determining the Q factor, bandwidth, and insertion loss of a filter. They feature impedance conversion, movement of measurement plane, fixture simulation, and adapter removal/insertion adjustments. The VNAs have five sweep types ...
AI is creeping into orbit and being used to predict where emergency services will be needed, accelerating responses compared to traditional satellite monitoring, said Dr Rajan Bedi, CEO and founder of Spacechips. In the latest episode of Electronics Weekly’s CHIIPs podcast, Bedi explains orbit AI machine learning is a focus for the company which designs and develops hardware for satellites ...
APEC 2026: Power Integrations has implemented its GaN technology in its TOPSwitch flyback ICs to increase the power range to 400W. The company’s PowiGaN technology means that the flyback converters more than double power output to extend the power range above the conventional 250W to 440W for faster charging for e-bikes, mobility devices and industrial applications. They also exceed ErP ...
The Eclipse Foundation announced updates to the Open VSX Registry, its vendor-neutral extension registry for tools built on the VS Code extension API. The registry is used in AI-enabled and cloud-based developer platforms, including Amazon’s Kiro, Google’s Antigravity, Cursor, IBM’s Bob, VSCodium, Windsurf and Ona (formerly Gitpod). A new pre-publication verification network will identify security risks. The framework enables the ...
An edge server and PLC controller for industrial automation, field comms and IoT edge applications by Sfera Labs are based on Raspberry Pi 4 and 5. The Strato Pi Plus edge server uses a Raspberry Pi RP2354 microcontroller to handle critical, real-time functions and system supervision, independently of the main processor. There is also an independent hardware watchdog designed to ...
