The ever-increasing integration of digital processes in manufacturing is one of the main revolutions the industry is witnessing. Marcus Schneck, CEO of norelem, addresses how data and standard ...

BUENA PARK, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--IDEA, the Independent Distributors of Electronics Association, today announced IDEA-STD-1010-A: Acceptability of Electronic Components Distributed in the Open ...

The molding materials used to package lead-free components differ from conventional epoxies in two ways: They take up moisture more slowly, and they better resist higher temperatures. But at the ...

But look at the time it takes to bring a concept into production and you may see a whole different picture. In a perfect world, engineers would build perfect designs using off-the-shelf components.

Recent growth in the use of BIM and model-based processes has spawned an enormous increase in offsite and near-site prefabrication, a trend that could be transformative for the construction industry.

While a “breadboard” design may be workable, it may not be possible to actually making standard components fit the required envelope. Engineers often think that assembling finished products from ...

A previous EDN article proposed a technique for modifying active-RC-filter-design equations to use exact standard-component values (Reference 1).The main idea was to determine standard-component-value ...
