This short technical note is about minimising harmonics; yet there will be those who don't as yet realise the extent to which harmonics cost money

Over the years, tutorials have appeared in EMC journals explaining how to estimate the power required from a power amplifier intended for use in an RF immunity test system. Little material has explored the issue of gain compression in RF power amplifiers

Scientists at Philips have developed new methods to significantly increase the efficiency of PolyLED polymer OLED displays. This opens the way to lower power consumption and will further strengthen the advantages of polymer OLED

Magnetoresistive random access memory (MRAM) is a memory technology that can potentially replace today's semiconductor memory technologies. The increasing capability of electronic devices is driving a growing need for increased memory performance

On July 1, 2006 lead-free soldering finally becomes law for the manufacturers and suppliers of electronic components in Europe. Many small and medium sized companies but also large industrial producers feel left alone with the changes to come

Arc faults within low voltage (LV) switchgear have been potentially life threatening for many years. But in 1996, users were presented with a new standard of safety

University of Utah physicists have taken an important step towards a new generation of faster, cheaper computers and electronics by building the first 'organic spin valves'

Philips has reached the milestone of 100,000 patents.

Engineers at Ohio State University have looked at the interface between layers of silicon and other materials in electronic devices. What they have learned may help traditional microelectronics remain vital to industry longer than most experts expect

Intel has identified new materials to replace those that have been used to manufacture chips for more than 30 years. This is a significant accomplishment as the industry races to reduce electrical current leakage in transistors

One of the most remarkable and novel discoveries in the last 400 years has been electricity. You may ask, "Has electricity been around that long?" The answer is yes, and perhaps much longer

The ever-increasing demand for distribution of more channels is resulting in pushing the upper limits of coaxial cable usage to 1000 MHz

The worldwide pressure to move away from traditional lead-containing solders has resulted in some intriguing differences of philosophy and approach around the world, which were highlighted during a recent British fact-finding mission to Japan

A breakthrough discovery by DSTO scientists will have a significant impact on future technology in many areas of sensing and communications

Physicists have discovered a mechanism that forces sharp edges on the surface of a silicon crystal to become rounded, and have described this rounding in detail for the first time
